Last Week’s Ranking in Parenthesis

Columbus (1): The Crew didn’t play last week, so they won’t move. They’d still be #1.

Houston (2): The gritty Dynamo will stay put after tying the Sounders in a thriller.

Chicago (3): The Fire also will stay @ #3 after a real Jekyll (W) and Hyde (L) week.

Chivas USA (6): The Goats are back in the Top 5 after taking down Toronto @ the HDC.

L.A. (7): The Gals are also a Top 5 team again due to a great victory @ Toyota Park.

New England (9): Two impressive wins in one week for the Revs, the week’s top riser.

Seattle (4): The Sounders fall the farthest. Only 1 point in 2 games due to a loss @ home.

Colorado (5): The Rapids actually match SEA’s dip because they fell apart vs. the Fire.

Toronto (8): The Reds lost on the road, so they must fall. The postseason is in jeopardy.

D.C. (10): DC’s postseason is in double jeopardy. They need points @ CHI on Saturday.

Salt Lake (11): RSL really sucks on the road. No, let me make that really, really sucks.

San Jose (14): SJE climbs this week after winning @ home. They now need a road W.

Dallas (12): The Former Burn got toasted by the worst team in the league. It was ugly.

Kansas City (13): KC has come unglued. Vermes probably wishes he had jumped ship.

New York (15): Yes, they won. But, they still have (by far) the worst record in MLS.
