My MLS rankings. I put way too much thought into these.
1. Real Salt Lake - An uninspiring draw for sure, but not damaging enough to knock them from the top perch.
2. LA Galaxy - You know things are going well when Juan Pablo Angel scores.
3. New York - Three of last four goals allowed have come on set pieces.

1. Real Salt Lake - How long do they last at this spot without Morales?
2. New York - Very impressive at times, looked vulnerable at others.
3. LA Galaxy - See above.

4. Columbus - One goal - chance for draws; two goals - chance for win

5.

Here are the latest rankings. The separation the top three had is still there but with more losses, even if they came on the road, it won't be for much longer.
1. Real Salt Lake - Had to figure the team was due for a letdown even though Portland is a tough place to play.
2. New York - Took the throttle off after one goal, but it was more than enough to silence KC.

As if anyone is surprised, the gap between teams is starting to show. Of course, the top three are probably the top three many had slotted that high before the season started - New York, LA, Real Salt Lake.
The first two had impressive shutout routs, over bad teams certainly but in combining for seven goals the two teams showed why there was so much hype over them before the year began.

I can't have a blog and not do MLS rankings. So now that we've dusted this off and started anew, I gotta get back to my rankings.
I haven't done these in a while... we'll see how this goes.
1. Real Salt Lake: Could be one of the league's best-ever teams2. LA Galaxy: Solved offensive problems.
