Football Champions

I’m not up to putting together a full on Power Ranking, so I thought I’d try something different. Here’s my list of three lists of three things each (with some notes to keep me honest):

Top Three Teams:

1. New York Red Bulls (I had them at #2 this weekend, thrashing the Crew helped them out)


2. New England Revolution (I had them #1, but NYRB is just a bit too scary not to swap the spots)


3. FC Dallas (Their game against RSL wasn’t that great, but they’re getting the results)

Bottom Three Teams:

1. Real Salt Lake (7 games, 4 points, still looking for a win)


2. Columbus Crew (They and LA are the only two 1 win teams, but LA’s only played 5 games to the Crew’s 7)


3. Houston Dynamo (Regardless of their beating Colorado, I just don’t see the Dynamo playing that well so far in 2007)

Three Coaches on the Hottest Seats:

1. Columbus Crew—Sigi Schmid (especially after the dismantling by NYRB)


2. Chivas USA—Preki (fans are already calling for his head, losing to LA again doesn’t help)


3. DC United—Tim Soehn (he went a long way to coming off this list by beating TFC, depending on Saturday’s result he may jump off the list to make room for Dominic Kinnear)
