The LA Galaxy have some stars. They are bedazzled with whimsical attackers and stout defenders. Not even Robbie Keane’s injury could keep the offense down. With the Irishman injured, the Galaxy have still managed to score nine goals in their past two games,...

Ever since Don Garber announced that MLS is going to be expanding to 28 teams, cities have been kicking it into gear to land one of those coveted spots. St. Louis, Austin, Sacramento, San Antonio, Cincinnati and more are all sending wooing letters to the commissioner...

Sporting Kansas City are having a bit of an anticlimactic season. Only twice have they scored over one goal in a game. Both times they scored two, they won. Both other wins came from scoring one and the opposing team notching a red card. The point is that Sporting is...

Orlando City SC has been all over the place this MLS season. One minute they are beating the reigning MLS Cup champion Portland Timbers 4-1, the next moment they are relying on two fortunate goals to make a 3-2 loss to the New York Red Bulls look a lot closer than it...

The New York Red Bulls had a first class, one-way ticket to misery. They were in the middle of their own nightmare. Nothing was working out. All of the stars that this team was built on had suddenly become frantic, nervy rookies that shouldn’t kick a beach ball...

There are a massive amount of MLS teams that are still proving incredibly difficult to get a read on as to how relevant they are going to be throughout the year. Hence the enjoyment that we all get out of MLS. One such team is D.C. United. Playing in the cavernous RFK...

We are getting to the point in the season where we are starting to see the true colors of a lot of teams around MLS. There is still some wiggle room, but the picture is getting clearer. Portland, LA and Columbus are beginning their rise, meanwhile Houston and NYCFC...
