I didn’t want to have to do this MLS, but you leave me no choice.
Today, MLS unveiled the first part of its 24 under 24. If you recall, the Fire landed four players on the 50-man shortlist, including Matt Polster, Jonathan Campbell, Brandon Vincent and Rodrigo Ramos. When I saw the list I had one completely reasonable demand: rank Polster in the top-3.
So what does MLS do? They rank him No. 20! That kind of blatant disregard for the factual reality of Polster’s greatness has inspired me to make my own list.
