Adi with some beauties tonight. Portland's front 6 is nasty, although that was against an expansion side playing their first game.
If Blanco and Valeri really click, and it looks like they will, that attack is arguably the best in the league.

I thought Minnesota held their own in the first half, and I loved seeing Ramirez score!

I expect the team will get more comfortable with each other as the season goes along. Opening away at Portland was always going to be tough.

Will probably watch a few teams before deciding who to follow. Likely go Eastern Conference though due to the time difference.

Houston may not win many games this year, but they're going to be pretty fun to watch. Elis and Quioto blazing down the flanks makes them lethal on the counter, if Cubo can get anywhere near his 2014 form for Chivas, they could score some goals.

Welcome to MLS Atalanta. Impressive debut, but Marsch is a good coach. Cant count out the Red Bulls.

How is San Jose supposed to do this year? Are they going to suck again?

They have a cheap owner, and a coach he prefers his old "experienced" knuckly draggers.

Part of the reason I rated them last, well that and I really hope they do finish last, to change the org.

That's the "moneyball" guy, right?

Is your new stadium ready soon in San Jose? Was watching the Impact game the other night and well a small stadium with empty seats and no stands behind one goal isn't very pretty...

Minnesota has some weird colors, but they've made it work pretty sharply, imo

Not really sure how "moneyball" he (Lew Wolf) is. Or Billy Beane had to develop that method to just keep the shoestring budget team competitive.

Now that it's snowing harder, it's easier to see the orange ball. Haha.
