They're baaaaaack!
As our forever friends at MLSSoccer.com count down the days until the 2016 MLS Cup, it's time to put another year-end MLS event on your radar: the second annual #MLSSoshies.
As you might remember from last year, the Soshies make for a a year-end extravaganza recognizing exceptional player performance on social media.
Last year, LA Galaxy social favorites were nominated for a few categories, but it was Sporting Kansas City's Dom Dwyer, who took the fan votes in the category of "Most Social Player."
This year works similarly. The group voting for Most Social Player will start after MLS Cup, the week of Dec. 13.
And now, fans, we again need you to help hunt down the best social posts of the season from your LA Galaxy players, and tell us who are the best MLS athletes on social media. Your nominations will be narrowed down by our editorial and social media team, and then you get to decide who goes home with each coveted award.
Using the hashtag #MLSSoshies, you can start nominate players now in five categories:
1) Most Social Player
Whether they’re on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, Vine, MySpace or all of the above, they’re just killin’ it. They’re experts with apps, filters, RTs, and are always up for sharing socially.
2) Let Me Take a #Selfie
Extend the arm. Get the look. Snap a pic. These guys are pros at the art of self-capture.
3) The Bigger Picture
There’s a whole wide world outside of soccer (we know, gasp!) and these players are capturing life beyond the pitch in the most unique ways.
4) Family Matters
Whether it's their wife, partner, kids, or otherwise, these players know that family is important, and they capture those quirky, cute, and downright lovable special moments with expertise.
5) MLS Pets
Whether they're cuddling their cats or documenting their dogs, these players know the true path to social media greatness: cute animals.
Let’s get social -- nominate some of your favorites now!
