It is that time again, the new season is here and I will make my annual Bold MLS Season Predictions. Last year I did alright in some predictions, and pretty poorly in others. In years past I’ve always thrown out a few random predictions to mix things up a bit so this isn’t just another predictions post…[continue reading]

“I, for one, am a supporter of it. We’ve gotten to the point in our league where our fans on short notice would support their club and attend a championship game even if they had only two or three days to buy tickets for that match. Years ago we wouldn’t have been able to contemplate that when we weren’t convinced the support was there to sell out a stadium for a championship game. Now I have no doubt we could. I think it’d be fun for the fans. I’m a big proponent of it. Although there is no timeline on a potential change in the format for the title match, Garber did hint once more that the new league schedule for 2012 – which he said would be released a lot earlier than last season -- will likely not be balanced and instead the league may adopt a format that “can take advantage of a number of key rivalries.”~ Don Garber
Higher seed hosting the MLS Cup? Sounds like it could be a real possibility when you hear MLS Commissioner Don Garber talk like this. My bet, it happens when the league gets to 20 clubs but who knows, maybe it will happen this year.

It was no mystery to how the Columbus Crew won the 2008 MLS Cup. The 17 wins in the regular season were no fluke. This club was just that damn good. From the offense of MVP Guillermo Barros Schelotto and Aljeandro Moreno to the defense of MLS Defender of the Year Chad Marshall and MLS…[continue reading]

I’ve been over this a thousand times really this past week or so. Columbus and New York together in the MLS Cup for the first time for each club. Amazing that this will be the first time since the first MLS Cup back in 1996 that both clubs never won a MLS Cup will have…[continue reading]

Anyone have this matchup for MLS Cup 2008? Of course your didn’t because the likelihood of a conference battle at MLS Cup doesn’t happen often. We had it once before with two Western Conference sides a few years back and now we get to see an all Eastern Conference game. But can you really believe…[continue reading]
