On Saturday, with MLS playoff hopes on the line for both teams, the Seattle Sounders and San Jose Earthquakes played out to a 1-1 draw in Avaya Stadium. Sure, it wasn't a win, but it also wasn't a loss, a result which leaves the Sounders with an outside chance at playing meaningful games in November. Take a coin. Predict heads or tails for the next two coin flips. If you're right for both of them, that's roughly the odds of the Sounders making the playoffs.
