Goddamn, this league is so weird sometimes. All these multiple-goal games, all these contending teams dropping points, but it’s still MLS in April sooooooooooo none of this matters? Probably?

It also makes writing about MLS a pain in the ass, because I have to try and get you to care about stuff that probably doesn’t actually matter.
So hey, here’s some stuff that went down in Week 8 or whatever.
