Two games down, a bunch more to go as Week 11 rolls on. Nine games headlined by two big rivalry games in Vancouver and in LA – certainly a busy weekend in MLS. I have a busy day ahead of me here so I’ll cut out the big intro and get to the meat of…[continue reading]

We knew going into this year’s US Open Cup that some things would be different. More clubs, more games, its all expanding. Now we have a nice bracket to go with it. Once the second round games are complete we’ll see where the MLS clubs come in for the third round games.

For some odd – very odd – reason the new week gets started a day earlier than normal. I won’t spend a ton of time with this as I have things to do before this game kicks off. Tonight’s game should be a fun one though. Portland Timbers at Houston Dynamo: John Spencer makes a…[continue reading]
