I put the Rapids at #1 because they're the defending champs and they opened with a huge win over the expansion Timbers. The other two polls have Real Salt Lake as #1 and given their play in the CONCACAF Champions League I'm not opposed to that. I had them #2 after all. Game of the week this week has to be Los Angeles at Real Salt Lake on Saturday night. Honorable mentions Kansas City at Chicago and Vancouver at Philadelphia.
