Now THAT was a conference final

Wow, what a game last night. Yes, I said I wouldn't watch. And I won't lie, part of the reason it's so good is that the team I wanted to win did. It's all gone bad for Chicago - their "most talented team in MLS" has come up short yet again, with the final blow delivered by a local kid.

So now we have an all-west MLS final (LA-Salt Lake), much like last year where we had an all-east final (New York-Columbus).
