Continuing a tradition of crashing this thread, the Vancouver Whitecaps were toastified over the weekend. Their loss to Seattle means they cannot qualify for the MLS playoffs in their inaugural season. Next up are Toronto TC and the New England Revolution. They could both be toast this weekend. (NOTE: TFC is already virtual toast since they would not only have to win out while NY loses out to even have a chance to tie for the last playoff spot, Toronto would also have to make up a 28 goal deficit in goal difference. But, hey, you never know.)

I thought my Cardinals would have been on this list sometime last week. They started selling Tie-Breaker game and NLDS tickets this morning on-line. I didn't get any tickets though. Spent my available cash in the bank for new poker tables for my business.
