I'm worried about the football, they are in the 34xx number range -
that's promotional.

Is it possible they did that to make them contiguous with the existing • football
promo sets?  I don't know the numbers for them offhand.

I think this may be the reason (taken from r.t.l):

"I just ran across this posting on the Major League Soccer site from a
press conference held today (Friday, November 19):


TODAY, WE ARE ALSO PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE THE ADDITION OF OUR NEWEST
CORPORATE PARTNER -- LEGO -- WITH THE MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF CHILDREN
(AND I CAN COUNT MY OWN 8-YEAR-OLD SON AS ONE OF THEM) WHO LOVE LEGO
PLAY SETS, THEY ARE A PERFECT FIT FOR THE LEAGUE. LEGO HAS MANY EXCITING
PLANS IN STORE FOR MLS NEXT YEAR, INCLUDING A NATIONWIDE INTERACTIVE
"TRUCK TOUR" AND THE LAUNCHING OF ITS FIRST SPORTS-THEMED PLAY SET -- A
SOCCER LINE OF TOYS IN JUNE 2000."

I don't reckon we'll see them in Europe...
