Well, it’s time. Break out your crystal balls, divining rods, and other implements of futile superstition. The American Soccer Analysis MLS prediction contest is here.

For the first two weeks of the season, use your knowledge of the league (or the flipping of a coin–I recommend a Kennedy half dollar) to out-prognosticate the rest of our ASA readers. If you answer the most total questions over the two weeks, you win a subscription to MLS Live 2014.

Only followers of American Soccer Analysis on Twitter (@AnalysisEvolved) will be eligible for the prize. We are doing this for two reasons: One, shameless self-promotion (well, we feel some shame, but we’re doing it nonetheless), and two, simplicity. We do not have to collect anybody’s name or personal information except for their Twitter handle (though if you have a Twitter account, let’s face it, you’re probably begging for the world’s attention anyway).

Now I’ll shut up and you can get to picking…
