And Then There Were Two

Despite the reader poll demanding a first-round matchup with Western Conference lightweights Colorado or LA, we come down to the final reckoning knowing that United's first round opponent will be either the Chicago Fire or the Kansas City Wizards. Should the Fire win their match with LA today, they will face DC to start the playoffs. Should they draw or lose, United will face the Wizards. As things stand now, and as history has so often demonstrated, I'd rather face the Wiz.
