1. D.C. United (16-7-7). Only Eastern team to end season with loss.
2. Chivas USA (15-7-8). No. 9's message: "I will play during the 2007 playoffs."
3. Houston (15-8-7). A chink in the armor: Dynamo failed to score up a man for 50 minutes with conference title on line.
4. Chicago (10-10-10). If there's any justice, Blanco will win MVP.
5. New England (14-8-8). Uninsipiring come-from-ahead draw at a bad Toronto team.
6. New York (12-11-7). A new wrinkle with this franchise: club has life entering the postseason.
7. Kansas City (11-12-7). Pieced together solid end-of-season effort for a change.
8. FC Dallas (13-12-5). Annual slump entering playoffs in full effect.
9. Los Angeles (9-14-7). At least Cannon gives a shit.
10. Columbus (9-11-10). Better than their record indicates.
11. Colorado (9-13-8). Seriously, does anyone on this team care about anything?
12. Real Salt Lake (6-15-9). Ended the season on a high.
13. Toronto FC (6-17-7). So do they get a pass on leaving players unprotected? On second thought, not much worth protecting.
that number 9 better not be playing with my emotions...
ReplyDeleteFamous author of "Fever Pitch", Nick Hornby, will be in West Hollywood on Thursday reading from his new book, "Slam". "Fever Pitch" may be the best book ever written about being a fan and loving your team.

#4? What? No reference to the Lemar track?
ReplyDeleteI thought you and AC were all about highlighting musical themes?
Silly to have Chicago two spots ahead of RBNY when over the home stretch of the season the head-to-head record is 0-1-1
