It's Day 81 of 2016. Sporting Kansas City is the only team left standing in MLS with a perfect record (3-0-0) after just 3 weeks. And SKC has beaten three Cup favorites - Seattle, Vancouver and Toronto! A lot of Kansas City fans hate Brad Davis due to their rivalry with his old team Houston, but scoring game winners will make him a local hero soon enough. Orlando and Salt Lake are the only other teams without a loss. (1 win and 2 ties each.) Two favorites are at the bottom of the pile: Seattle with 3 losses, and Columbus with 2 losses and a tie. NYRB went down 1-2 and 2-3 before coming back to win 4-3 over Houston! A wild game. Dallas and Philly had the most emphatic wins of the weekend - 2-0 v Montreal and 3-0 v New England respectively. I did not pick San Jose to make the playoffs this season, but I think I might be wrong. They have a very good coach and quite a few good players. Do not underestimate them. Jameson Olave of RSL set a new MLS record by receiving his 10th Red Card. Bobby Shuttleworth of New E
