2008 Power Rankings: Week 15
Rank (Last Wk) Team Record (W-L-T) Comment
1 (1) New England 10-4-3 Punctuated Round 15 with an emphatic victory against L.A., in a meeting of the conference leaders.
2 (2) Columbus 8-4-3 Sigi Schmid is a strong contender for Coach of the Year so far.
3 (3) DC United 7-7-1 A surging side -- but no MLS matches until July 22 could slow momentum.
4 (7) Chicago 6-5-3 Two accomplishments this week: a draw on the road and nobody brawled in the locker room. Well done!
5 (9) Chivas USA 6-6-3 Ante Razov rescues the Goats yet again.
6 (4) Toronto FC 6-5-3 Losing to a USL team doesn't hurt the MLS standings, just pride.
7 (5) Los Angeles 6-6-3 Trading Carlos Ruiz for a center back or center midfielder could improve matters immensely.
8 (6) Houston 4-4-8 Just two goals scored in a four-game winless streak. We keep saying they need to find that other striker.
9 (10) Real Salt Lake 5-6-5 Coach Jason Kreis versus league officials is more compelling than his team misfiring.
10 (11) Colorado 6-8-1 Offense explodes on July 4 and saves Fernando Clavijo's job for now.
11 (8) New York Red Bulls 5-5-5 Are things really any better under Juan Carlos Osorio than they were under Bruce Arena?
12 (12) FC Dallas 4-6-6 Missed a huge opportunity to collect all three points against a travel-weary K.C. bunch.
13 (13) Kansas City 4-5-5 Four points from the last two games -- have the Wizards turned a corner?
14 (14) San Jose 3-9-3 Losing is difficult -- scoring so rarely is truly demoralizing.
