Playoff soccer, MLS style

American Soccer News 30 October @ 06:58 AM EST

More Frustration at Home

Sounder at Heart - Soccer From the Heart of the Sound 30 October @ 01:42 AM EST
Well, more suffering for fans at Qwest. It's beyond a cliché to say that MLS referring is subpar, but there were two hugely controversial calls that will soon be reverberating over the interwebs.

WVHooligan 01 October @ 06:37 PM EST

First of all, sorry about last night and not having anything to discuss here. I honestly wasn't feeling it and furthermore just wanted to relax and watch some of the games that were on. But I am back tonight with a couple interesting items.

Week 27 is down and in the books. Only a few weeks left to go and this regular season will be finished. This weeks rankings saw yet another shift around the middle of the order but for the most part a good chunk of clubs stayed put from last week's table.

Still, the top four and the bottom four are the same that we've seen for the last few months that's one thing that has remained consistent here.
