  Houston will have to drop a few points with a schedule like that.

  Galaxy is low man on the pole and faces the crew and houston away.

  San Jose has a tough run away from home.

  Assuming 4 make it from the west, I’m guessing…
  Chivas USA
  Houston Dynamo
  Real Salt Lake
  Colorado

  Thank you Alex…

  I think the table might end like this…
  todays Team Games Season’s end
  40 Houston (LDWWD)8 points - 48 points
  36 CHIVAS (DWWD) 8 points - 44 points
  34 Colorado (WWLD) 7 points - 41 points
  34 SL (LLDD) 2 points - 36 points
  33 Dallas (WWDD) 8 points - 41 points
  29 LA (LLLD) 1 point - 30 points
  29 SJ (LLLWW) 6 points - 34 points

  This gets wrecked if all of a sudden LA goes on a CRAZY streak, and I acknowledge this is a possibility, or DC plays the rest of their MLS games like they did in CCC.

  Even if LA goes WWWW, they are only at 41 points, so CHIVAS USA should be safe with WW or WDDD.

  So far 0-1 in my predictions… I picked Dallas to win, not “salvage a draw”…

  But the draw might cause SJ to be more focused next week against Chivas USA?!? Next week’s CUSA v SJ game is one that we need to pull through.

  Wow, I was wrong, but at least in a good way.
  I made a few adjustments (Houston beating DC & SL draw)

  todays Team Games Season’s end
  43 Houston (WWDD)8 pts - 51 pts
  39 CHIVAS (WWD) 7 pts - 46 pts
  35 SL (DDD) 3 pts - 38 pts
  34 Colorado (WLD) 4 pts - 38 pts
  34 Dallas (WDD) 5 pts - 39 pts
  30 SJ (LDWW) 7 pts - 37 pts
  29 LA (LLD) 1 pt - 30 pts

  Nice job DC, I thought your current form would have lost to Houston, but you made me happy!
  Guessed right: Chivas v SJ, RSL
  Guessed wrong: Dallas, LA v Colorado, Houston

  I might be changing my Chivas v Houston pick to a win for Chivas depending on Houston’s form this week.
  Was I wrong about Colorado?

  Frickin’ SJ. Can’t you hold on to a draw?!?

  47 Houston (DD) 2 pts - 50 pts
  42 CHIVAS (WD) 4 pts - 46 pts
  36 SL (DD) 2 pts - 38 pts
  35 Dallas (DD) 2 pts - 37 pts
  34 Colorado (LD) 1 pts - 35 pts
  32 LA (LD) 1 pt - 33 pts
  30 SJ (WW) 6 pts - 36 pts

  Now I am in the worst spot. I have to cheer for the (glup) Galaxy to win v. Houston. I think I am going to throw up! (Do I dare suggest that Galaxy would “throw” the game on purpose?!? Galaxy fans, what say you?)

  If the Gals win, I would have to publicly apologize for insinuating that the Gals would do such a thing.

  Either way, I think I’m going to be sick!

  I am a Dynamo fan in Houston, but I was so dismayed with the red card against Chivas’ keeper during the game against the Dynamo. For a game that really didn’t mean anything to the playoffs except keeping players sharp, the ref made a terrible call in denying Chivas their keeper for the first round of the playoffs. Well done for Chivas staying focused to pull off the tie at the end. Kudos to your team.
