There are 6 MLS playoff games this weekend: Atl/NE, Sea/Dal, Tor/DC, RSL/Por, Phi/NYRB, Min/LAG 6. which game is most likely to go to penalty kicks? RSL/Por - 7 Tor/DC - 2 Phi/NYRB - 1 (Correct answer: none of the above. Though we did get a bunch of overtime.) 7. which game will be the highest scoring? Atl/NE - 7 Min/LAG - 2 Sea/Dal - 1 (Bzzt, Atl/NE was actually the lowest-scoring! Phi/NYRB and Sea/Dal each had 7, and Tor/DC wound up with 6. Though all three of those did play an extra 30 minutes. So far, though, I think most folks are rating the single-game knockout format as a success.) 8. which game is most likely to have the road team win? Phi/NYRB - 3 Min/LAG - 3 RSL/Por - 3 Tor/DC - 1 9. which game will be the biggest blowout? Atl/NE - 6 Min/LAG - 1 Sea/Dal - 1 Tor/DC - 1 Phi/NYRB - 1 (Tor/DC ended up as a blowout after extra time, but they were tied after 90. And every other game was a 1-goal affair, extra time or not. So all 6 were close.) 10. how many road teams will advance? 2 - 4 3 - 2 5 - 2 1 - 2 (Correct answer: 1 Minnesota finally had a good year, but I don't think too many folks are upset that we're going to get another El Trafico.)
11. were you at the groundbreaking last week? yes - 9 no - 1 12. Skittles, Starburst, or Smarties? Skittles - 5 Starburst - 5 (You goddamn Smarties haters!) 13. who is most likely to win the Democratic Presidential nomination? Warren - 5 Biden - 5 14. who is second most likely to win the Democratic Presidential nomination? Biden - 5 Warren - 3 Sanders - 2 15. name the USMNT's worst player in the game vs Canada Bradley - 6 Ream - 2 Pulisic - 1 Yedlin - 1 (Bradley's a fine choice, but Ream also would have been acceptable.)
