  1. Interesting that most of our home games have no listed time yet.
    .
    Also, three of the final four matches are at home. That could prove to be big down the stretch.

    • perhaps they’re poring over the fan survey info for best times to hold the matches.
      personally, i was able to attend every match this past season though i wouldn’t have minded another midafternoon match in the second half of the season.

    • I’ve heard that MLS might be trying some flex scheduling on the weekends to allow them to bring the most interesting game into a prime time slot. Perhaps that’s why all the TBDs?

  2. No break for the world cup?

    I wonder why we are playing Sporting KC, Columbus & Chicago 3 times, two of which are away?

    • Part of the unbalanced scheduling. We’ll get them twice at home in ’15.

      • UnitedPenn13 says:

        Except in ’15 there will be 2 new clubs in the league so scheduling will probably be done differently. So we are playing 3 teams 3 times, twice away but are we playing any other teams 3 times where we play them twice at home? Not that I noticed in the schedule. Are we being screwed because we finished 7th?

      • Red Bulls, Montreal and New England.
