Decision Day for MLS is Sunday. The Colorado Rapids are already in the playoffs, clinching their spot Wednesday with a 1-0 win in Portland. In Sunday’s regular-season finale at Houston, the Burgundy Boys get a chance to improve their seeding and get a more favorable postseason matchup.
As it stands now, and likely will after Sunday’s action, the three strongest teams in the west — Kansas City, Portland and Seattle — hold the top three seeds. Though the Rapids did just beat the Timbers and Sounders, they will want to avoid all three and try to get the No.
