Let’s just say it, week four in Major League Soccer had plenty to offer. From the entertaining, yet frustrating Whitecaps-Revolution game on Wednesday all the way to the controversial finish in D.C. between United and the Galaxy. Below are some items I took away from this past week in MLS. 1. Revs have long way to go.…[continue reading]

One thing we should probably stress right now is that it is still very early in the season. I bring that up right out of the gate so some fans don’t go nutty when they realize their club is two games in with zero to one point, or if their club just got hammered this…[continue reading]

  I’ve been watching Major League Soccer since the league started back in 1996 and this may be the first time since that opening week that the league had such an amazing First Kick. While some games didn’t have as much meaning to some folks as others did, I will say there was a certain…[continue reading]

We know who are in and who are out, that is really all we know after week 29.

I hate to say my thoughts and notes for this week will be kept rather brief. I honestly wasn’t able to view a lot of this past weekend’s action other than highlights though I did jot a few notes down that I did gather from what I did see. Seattle’s Hot Feet, Columbus Struggles I…[continue reading]

It appears that the closer we get to the 2010 MLS Cup Playoffs the more the top eight in the league are breaking away from the rest of the pack. As of today LA is mathematically “in” while Columbus, Dallas, RSL and NY are all just points behind joining the Galaxy in the post season dance.…[continue reading]

A few clubs took a step forward this past weekend while others were taking two steps back. For the first time nearly all season the standings appear pretty tight in various spots. Up top is becoming increasingly closer as LA drops points yet again while RSL, Dallas, Columbus, and New York all sneak up on…[continue reading]
