How about each week you each pick a team and tell us what you all would do as GM/TD in order to strengthen said team for a playoff run. For instance LA obviously has an atrocious defense, so what realistic moves would you do to fix the team. And by realistic I mean plausible and not including changing the MLS rules and signing some huge star from Europe/Mexico/S.Amerjust another one of youhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04169297729339963645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437561489188679737.post-8439575535518736812008-06-23T15:51:00.000-07:002008-06-23T15:51:00.000-07:00The Galaxy are high on my current list because the...The Galaxy are high on my current list because they score goals like nobody's business. No team in MLS is as prolific. If their guns are firing, I'd take LA over any team in the league, even if the scoreline might be 5-4.A.C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03617669285297119500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437561489188679737.post-64544787218810072832008-06-23T15:12:00.000-07:002008-06-23T15:12:00.000-07:00I can't speak for Andrea but for me I consider my ...I can't speak for Andrea but for me I consider my rankings like stocks. Some stocks are sinking and you want to sell them while others that may not be worth as much are climbing and are thus stronger because of it. If the playoffs started today, I don't know that I'd have Toronto in the Eastern Conference final and LA in the Western Conference final. Things change between the last game of the regular season and the playoffs. My rankings are more of a reflection on current form mixed in with records.L.B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03932409909043501781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437561489188679737.post-71047613526657108602008-06-23T15:07:00.000-07:002008-06-23T15:07:00.000-07:00I noticed Luis has them ranked #3 also, so if eith...I noticed Luis has them ranked #3 also, so if either of you want to chime in please go ahead.

I don't see how they would be favorites over #4-7 on your list. Sure all those teams have their warts, but if there was a home and away series would you really pick LA as the favorite over 3/4 of the league? If so, what are you seeing that I'm not?just another one of youhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04169297729339963645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5437561489188679737.post-55833143037436938952008-06-23T13:02:00.000-07:002008-06-23T13:02:00.000-07:00Yeah, it couldn't possibly be that all the teams r...Yeah, it couldn't possibly be that all the teams ranked above them have more points this season.
