The labor dispute between the US Soccer Federation and the players' union has been resolved, for now. The Federation accepted the players' proposal that the players would not go on strike during 2005 and the Federation would end its lockout of top players.
This is good news for US soccer fans, since it means we will be fielding a full strength side for all of this year's upcoming World Cup qualifiers. Though it's clear from earlier statements (by the players and by the Federation) that bitterness will not disappear quite so quickly.
