The 2016 MLS season is off to a roaring start for bookings, and fans might think this is an indication those teams will suffer in the standings.
MLS has often ignored international breaks and let half strength MLS teams go to battle to maintain their standing. Unusually, a majority of MLS teams did not play this weekend, leaving Chicago Fire fans watching games with little relevance to the team’s current position (but hey, we are only 1 point out of a playoff spot!).
I decided to tune into the three games that were played on Saturday mostly in the interest of my MLS fantasy team.
