We did this last year, and it was fun. So let's do it again today, as we head into the Audi 2016 MLS Cup Playoffs.

Remember, these aren’t the Supporters' Shield rankings, nor are they the Power Rankings. The Politburo was not consulted (and in fact, they have displeased me and been sent to Siberia).

Rather, this is my own personal account of who’s got the best chance of entering the playoffs this week and then coming out six weeks later with a shiny new trophy.
