Revs add two more players to the 2007 All-Sar roster, as Taylor Twellman and Steve Ralston are added to the inactive roster
Major League Soccer on Wednesday announced the 14 additional selections for the Sierra Mist All-Star Game, in addition to the MLS First XI, the five players chosen by Steve Nicol and the two Commissioner's Picks originally announced.

The additional selections are considered MLS All-Stars, and will listed as such in official league records.
The complete list includes Kyle Beckerman (MF, Real Salt Lake); Jim Brennan (DF, Toronto FC); Jeff Cunningham (FW, Toronto FC); Danny Dichio (FW, Toronto FC); Brad Guzan (GK; Chivas USA); Frankie Hejduk (DF; Columbus Crew); Justin Mapp (MF; Chicago Fire); Ben Olsen (MF, D.C. United); Guillermo Barros Schelotto (MF, Columbus Crew); Steve Ralston (MF, New England Revolution); Claudio Reyna (MF, New York Red Bulls); Eddie Robinson (DF, Houston Dynamo); Taylor Twellman (FW, New England Revolution); and Ronald Waterreus (GK, New York Red Bulls)
The 14 additional players earned All-Star recognition based on the four-part voting process that concluded on June 25. Fans' votes comprised 25 percent of the players' totals, while player, coaches/front office and media votes each contributed 25 percent to the final total.
