holy crap. they put up their mls "power rankings" on espnsoccernet. we are ranked 11, 11, 9, 10 by the guys over there. what the ****. what do you guys think of this? 11? crap even 9? i still think we have a good shot at making the playoffs and anything below 9 is disrespect. i mean, i know we are unproven, but come on. average ranking of 10 kinda sux. all well, these guys arent playing on the pitch. we will see how it plays out.

I would rather they rank us low and then act surprised when we do well. Kinda like the Jazz last year as opposed to all the preseason hype on the Jazz this year. 🙂

this is very true, and i love this tactic. i dont like what has happened in the second rebuilding year however, and i dont want it to happen to RSL. this year has been absolutely MISERABLE for the jazz, and it has all been their fault either. too many injuries.

foxsports.com had rsl finishing up 3rd ehind Dallas and the galaxy.

they seem to know SOMETHING!

At least the Seedy Cheetos did worse. They were ranked dead last by all 4!:p
