They started out slow, but all of a sudden exploded for seven goals at home against the Earthquakes and on the road at DC United. But this time it looked like a […]

Dorothy Gale gave sage advice to any MLS team: there's no place like home. Every home team in MLS got at least a point this weekend, showing that there is an advantage to playing in front of hometown fans. What that meant for the standings is that when the dust cleared, LA stood atop the […]
