Michael Parkhurst is a jerk

I thought Michael Parkhurst was a class act. Guess not.

Nope, the Columbus Crew defender decided to poke some "fun" at Chivas USA ahead of the MLS Draft on Thursday, popping up to make this good 'ol "joke":

Good luck to all potential MLS draftees today. Though it may be a stressful day, at least you can't be drafted by Chivas USA

Factually correct, and yet, what a cheap shot.

He could have picked any number of existent MLS teams that have had major problems in recent seasons themselves. Surely Chivas USA was not the only team around that some players dreaded to go to. But nah, why stick your neck out like that, right Michael? You could still end up playing in Colorado or whatever.

Guess you're content to lap up the adulation from making the lamest joke possible. Way to go.
