Re: World Soccer XXVIII: Campeones de NorteAmérica.
They wanted to give some buffer with finishing the stadium (they just officially took over the stadium from the construction company last week) and the Final Four is in Minneapolis on 3/6 weekend so they wanted to avoid that as well so it's later than it will normally be but thats the way it goes this season.
Edit: As for your second paragraph...The June break is because of the Gold Cup. March 18-26 and September 2-10 are International Breaks where Countries can call in their players. MLS does not stop for those but teams can choose to schedule around them. MNUFC should prefer to schedule around them with Gregus, Ibarra, Metanire, Calvo, Schuller, Boxall all likely call ups for International Friendlies/competitions. MNUFC will play through the June 3-11 break, but that might not really apply to the CONCACAF/Copa America players because of the Gold Cup break right after? The MLS playoffs are now wedged in between the October and November windows which was a positive move for the league.
