This week is a bit unusual, statistically speaking: no ties (when dividing the points by the total
games played).

MLSnet.com has been redesigned. I like the subtitle of the article:
New, improved features keep
MLSnet.com as nation's leading soccer Web site. There's nothing like good old-fashioned
humility, proclaiming themselves the #1 US soccer site! Personally, I am not yet convinced that the
changes are anything more than aesthetic (the site really does look better); at first glance, the
functionality has not been improved.

This week, I did the standings based upon pts/gp, with w/gp being used as a determining factor in
the instances where two or more teams were tied after figuring the pts/gp.

I've decided to take a different approach to the stats this week. In the past, I've ranked teams
based on their total of points. However, the results are skewed when you consider that not all
teams have played the same number of games at a given point in time. For example, at the time of
this posting, FC Dallas has 14 GP under their belt, while LA has only 9.

If the Cup were to be played today, it would be between NYRB and FC Dallas. I know that I should
probably be over my amazement NYRB's steady success this year, but I'm not.

You may recall this post from last week about FIFA's ban of high altitude matches. Apparently this
was a big enough story for the BBC to have collected a selection of readers' views on the ban.

Lonestar rivals hook up in Houston (You can see the official MLS preview here.) This should be good
one to watch. While this game hardly has the status here as the annual Texas-Oklahoma football game
(or the Ohio State-Michigan game in my home state), games like this between two teams within a
several hours' drive of each other always have a fun intensity to them, due to the mitigation of
the home field advantage.
