But here it is, anyway: I made the call solely to avoid getting carried away with one result. There was also the fact that I saw only the highlights of this one, which made me more cautious still (though, based on <A HREF="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/04/14/AR2007041401754.html" REL="nofollow">later reading</A>, that seems like a mistake).<BR/><BR/>Going from the other side, I think I'm still hanging on to preseason expectations; everyone thought DC would be a power this year, myself included. Even as I raised flags about the defense in all the previews I did, there's something giving me pause about writing off DC too early. I actually wrote the comment in the preliminaries about DC United - e.g. them being the exception to "leaning heavily on current form" - immediately after placing them fifth.<BR/><BR/>So, as I said, I don't think I can justify this call. It's part gut-reaction, part caution. For the record, though, I'd really enjoy seeing DC crash - no offense to them or their fans; it's just a better story. And, as a national team fan, I'd LOVE to see Eddie Johnson take off.The Manly Ferryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781284717499002494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27402239.post-44177415766784967652007-04-16T14:32:00.000-07:002007-04-16T14:32:00.000-07:00While I enjoy your power rankings very much, I mus...While I enjoy your power rankings very much, I must issue a token comment for your complaint box: The Wizards beat DC United 4-2 AWAY coming off a bye week while DC has now garnered a total of 0 points from two games.<BR/><BR/>What more could KC have done to win your favor? What less could DC have done for you to kick them out of the top five?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18086905578543603423noreply@blogger.com
