MLS Wins and Losses: Week 6.

Entertainment remained thin on the ground as far as the football goes this week, but let’s dive right in, starting with last week’s big winners, the Vancouver Whitecaps, who had 4 wins out of 5, losing only to the unstoppable juggernaut that is TFC. They played twice, an entertaining midweek game that saw them end up with a 2-2 tie against Columbus, followed by a particularly crappy game against San Jose, losing 1-0, not...

MLS Wins and Losses. Week 4

Week 4, an international break, time for everyone not actually an international to catch their breath and relax in the matching bye week.

It’s been a rough start to the season so far really. We’ll start with the...
