so lets talk about this, after the first round bye, we will play the lowest seeded team that wins the knockouts.

This means that on Oct 30/31 we will have our first away game in either Chicago, Columbus or at NYRB. Chance to play in Atlanta is small, they will need to be over taken by Chicago or Columbus, which given current form will be difficult.

Oct 30/31 is a monday tuesday combo, which is shitty but should be a fun away trip regardless.

Exactly what im looking at right now. If Atlanta doesnt choke in playoffs first round, then lookings like the two Cs are what we looking to go to. Chicago or Columbus, shall be interesting!! gotta start booking those days off haha :P

Is it possible that in a league with 86% Amercian franchises, that 2 Canadian teams will win the respective conferences? All Canadian Final?

It's possible, but Sports Club Stats gives KC as a stronger team, as does fivethirtyeight.com.

That would work - VCup vs US Open winners in the final.

Might want to play Vancouver - at least we have a 2-0 decision over them, vs a 0-0 with KC.
