Week 27 Recap
By: travis |

There’s plenty to talk about after another busy weekend of MLS action. A few teams look dead and buried (DC, LA, and Toronto), while others storm to life at the right time – RSL and Colorado – to give themselves the inner track in the race to the playoffs. But if this season of the [...]

The amazing thing about the Galaxy’s awful record in the past two months (winless in 13 of 14) is the fact they aren’t dead in the water. Even in the woeful West, their 29 points still gives them an outside chance at the MLS playoffs. When you’re a league that accepts 8 of 14 teams, [...]

Chicago v Los Angeles
It’s Thursday already, and you know what that means. Thursday night soccer? Not a very catchy nickname. Either way, Beckham-mania (what’s that? People don’t care about him as much?) hits the Windy City, with Los Angeles taking on the Fire. With the playoff picture taking shape, the Galaxy now sit just two [...]
Week 26 Review – Things Tighten Up
By: travis | No Comments
Yes Jeff Cunningham, I’m as surprised as you about your win in Chicago. What’s even funnier is that this picture is not from the match, yet I stole it from the recap page. Almost every team facing a “must win” over the weekend came away with three points. That’s a remarkable feat, considering a couple [...]
Week 26 Preview – Playoff Push
By: travis | No Comments
It’s unusual business this week as Houston and San Jose see their fixture from this weekend canceled, thanks in part to Hurricane Ike. Best wishes go out to the people of Texas and Houston as they try to piece together their lives and homes.
That aside, it’s another important weekend for just about every club. The [...]

Columbus v New York
It’s an important match out in Columbus tonight, as the front running Crew host the Red Bull, who have been on a hot streak of their own. Guillermo Barros Schelotto is a recent injury concern, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see him given another week off. In his absence it will [...]
Week 25 Recap – Winding down the stretch
By: travis | No Comments
The playoff race is tightening with just six weeks to go. That’s still a lot of time for those in need of some points, and it’s safe to say, at this point, everyone is still alive. A few teams are fading fast (Galaxy) and others try to stay close (Wizards, Dallas) to the remaining spot. [...]

New England v Chivas USA
It’s already Thursday, and that means another sparsely watched game on ESPN2. I’ll hopefully be tuning in to catch the Revs taking on Chivas USA at Foxborough, although it may not be worth it. Check out the injury list from the MLSnet preview:
NEW ENGLAND REVOLUTION – OUT: FW Adam Cristman (R [...]
Week 24 Recap – Let’s honor international week please
By: travis | No Comments
As expected, it was a rough week for those teams hit hard by international call ups. Toronto barely put together a squad. For others, such as DC and New England, injuries and the heavy schedule are really putting a crunch on players this late in the season. Then there are those squads lucky enough to [...]
Week 24 Preview – On the weekend
By: travis | No Comments
So the Rapids surprised everyone, especially myself with their 1-0 win against Dallas in a very empty Pizza Hut Park. We’ll see if Colorado can back that up and make a run at the playoffs, but I’ll leave that til Monday. The big story for this weekend is the number of players who will be [...]
