NYRB have been really impressive so far. I think this year is the year they finally get it done.
There's some steep competition in the East. I wouldn't mind NYRB getting past Atlanta (as long as they don't play in the final vs Portland... which is not looking very likely this early in the season).
With the international games this week (Canada vs French Guiana & US vs Chile), only a handful of teams will be playing matches.
I attended the FC Cincinnati match as a Timbers away fan last week. It was great atmosphere, and a good time even though my Timbers lost 3-0. I actually grew up in Cincinnati, so it was a memorable moment for me for sure.
FC Cincinnati also has 4 former Timbers on the pitch and one in the training staff, so they have easily slotted themselves into the position as my second favorite team in the league. I hope to see them overtake New England this week.
My Timbers get a rest this week, and will hopefully hit the training field and spend time with their family to turn it around next week vs. LA Galaxy.
