- Josh Wolff (Forward, Kansas City Wizards) is on the prowl. With goals in his team's last three games, the Georgia native has the Wizards just one point back of Eastern Conference co-leaders Chicago and D.C. Take notice, Bob Bradley.
- Andre Rocha (Midfielder, FC Dallas) scored a lovely goal for the Hoops in their draw with Seattle on Saturday. However, if he'd put away what can only be described as a sitter earlier in the match, Dallas would have walked away with two more points that they desperately need.
- Maykel Galindo (Forward, Chivas USA) made his first start for Chivas USA in over a year on Saturday, scoring a goal in his side's 2-2 draw with D.C. United at The Home Depot Center on Saturday. If he's finally back to full fitness, the Cuban could be a great addition to your front line.
- Toronto FC should work on heading. There were at least four excellent chances in the air for them to get back in to Saturday's game against Chicago. They wasted them all and fell 2-0 at home and got leapfrogged by the Fire.
- The Red Bulls were unimpressive once again Saturday. It didn't help when midfielder Jorge Rojas was ejected for a vicious elbow on Brian Mullan. Don't be surprised if his suspension is extended by the league's disciplinary committee. Despite being down a man, New York was able to escape with a point after a late strike from substitute striker John Wolyniec. One could certainly argue that the Staten Island native deserves a start for his efforts.
- Corey Ashe (Midfielder, Houston Dynamo) has been having a very solid season so far, though he doesn't necessarily have the numbers to prove it. The speedster picked up his first assist on Saturday with a beautiful ball from the left wing that Chris Wondolowski buried. More of that and bench warmer DaMarcus Beasley is going to have to be concerned. (Side note: Sweet ATV, DMB!)
- Trailing Chivas USA 2-0 on the road, D.C. United coach Tom Soehn inserted winger Fred after halftime and playmaker Christian Gomez with 20 minutes remaining. Low and behold, the Black-and-Red rally for two late goals to stretch their unbeaten run to seven games. That's all well and good, but why were they on the bench to begin with? Talent like that needs to be on the field.
- Going into Sunday's matinée between Columbus and Los Angeles, each team had recorded a single win in eight tries. What happened at The Home Depot Center? They tied, of course! Tony Sanneh gifted a goal to Guillermo Barros Schelotto that put the visitors on front, but Eddie Lewis absolutely hammered home a late equalizer for the Galaxy. It was a frantic and exciting finish, but a single point does little to help either side.
- The Crew have next week off. Plan accordingly.
