For posterity, here's what is still my favorite MLS goal ever.

For posterity, here's what is still my favorite MLS goal ever.

Still my favorite thunderbastard in MLS history. Has a level of intentionality to it that few goals have ever matched.
What a player, what a career.

Three teams – Chicago, Austin and FC Dallas – have already been eliminated in Round 1 of the MLS playoffs. What comes next for them?
