@Toronto 3.10 l 3.30 l 2.25 Houston
Toronto is without Dichio (suspension) and Houston has had better results lately and has found an offense. Toronto has little to nothing to match up with Ching. TOR's only hope is the that crowd will be worth a goal.
HOU@2.25 Over

@Chicago 2.35 l 3.25 l 2.90 Dallas
Brimstone Cup game. Home teams win this matchup. Chicago was crapo last week and will miss Gutierrez. Dallas was gifted a win last week by lack of quality and effort of both KC and the refs. Don't expect 2 straight. Ruiz should start if he isn't traded first. I like Chicago at home vs a B-tier team.
CHI@2.35 Over

@Houston 2.17 l 3.04 l 3.24 New England
New England will have a full week's rest and HOU will have played Wed. night. NE is undefeated in 4 road games 2-0-2. HOU matches well with NE, but has been sketchy at home. Two ties in last year's games. Twellman is en fuego. I usually say bet streaks until they are over, but I've bet every broken streak the last two weeks and am 0-for-all.
HOU@2.17

Colorado 2.13 l 3.08 l 3.29 Kansas City
KC will win this game. They are the better team even short Marinelli and Sealy. Check the injury list to see in Conrad is out. If he is in, KC will win. I don't care waht COL does. On a big field I like KC's offense and speed. Great price here.
KC@3.29 Over

@Toronto 2.90 l 3.09 l 2.33 DC
DC will win this one.
DC@2.33 Over

@New York 1.83 l 3.29 l 4.05 Columbus
NY losl at home last time out. It will not happen again th is week. CLB is a road draw sepecialist. Waterrus should be the difference in a Bulls win if healthy. CLB can't score in a brothel.
NY@1.83 Under

@Chivas 2.17 l 3.14 l 3.14 Los Angeles
Chivas is winless away and undefeated at home. LA won this matchup in front of their fans. Chivas should win this one and are due for a less than fantastic game from the oppposing GK.
The price here says bet LA. I still like CHV.
CHV@2.17 Over

Dallas 1.78 l 3.29 l 4.31 RSL
RSL is winless anywhere. DAL is 3-1 v RSL in history. THe price on RSL is georgeous as DAL plays midweek and RSL will be rested. That is worth going after, even if you lose. It will be hot in Dallas, that may be a factor for both teams. I'm going for the price and Kreis to get it done in a return to Dallas.
RSL@4.31 Over

Good luck.

Excellent write up as usual.

DC and NY are my "easy" picks. I'm split on the Dallas/RSL match.

Thxs, Mag.

OK, well so much for Toronto losing. Suddenly I'm 0-for my last 6. Apparently Dichio was their problem and their crowd is in fact worth a full goal. My goodness. It all makes KC's win there look ever better.

Suddenly the Saturday game is the "Toilet Bowl" game in the East. DC could actualy "die" for the year at BMo. Monday morning DC unbelievably could be 9 points out of a playoff spot, behind 6 teams, and a full 5 back of Toronto. Incredible. Go Canucks!

I'm officially switching my HOU pick to NE.

Damn, I took Chicago for the win. I dozed off during the second half and awoke as the final score was flashed.

I was on a nice winning streak there for a while, but I've lost my touch within the past couple of weeks.

I'm sticking with DC and NY. Avoiding the Dallas/RSL match like the plague.

A recent "Black Saturday" has tempered my interest, but for the record, I'm with you WC on RSL, NY and Chivas.

Woohoo! I went 3 for 3 over the weekend. I took DC, NY, and NE.
