Talking Everything American Professional Rugby
1. Rugby ATL (LW: 3) It seems like whoever wins the LA game that week takes the top spot. If we get this rematch in the Final, we'll be lucky. 2. Rugby United New York (LW: 2) This team is coming together in a way that should scare every team in the league. 3. Los … Continue reading MLR Power Rankings: Round 11
Editor's Note: It's Memorial Day. Like last week's game picks, these will be abbreviated. Take a bit of time to think about the meaning of the day. As I said in the Spoiler Alert, I recommend listening to Green Fields of France and simply taking it in. If that doesn't leave you feeling something, then … Continue reading 3 Things: MLR Round 11
1. Los Angeles Giltinis (LW: 1) The biggest question left in their season is when they’ll lock down the top seed. 2. Rugby United New York (LW: 3) A strong bounce back against a sneaky good New England side bumps them back up. 3. Rugby ATL (LW: 4) This team has quietly become a really … Continue reading Power Rankings: MLR Round 10
An abbreviated Spoiler Alert today due to the holiday weekend.

LA is on the Path to the Top Seed in the West Saying that LA will earn a one seed is just about the coldest take in the MLR. However, the path has become clear. If everything broke the right way, the Giltinis could have the top seed in the conference wrapped up by the … Continue reading 3 Things: MLR Round 10
Byes: San Diego, Toronto Utah @ NOLA Both of these teams need a win. While Utah is the better team, they’re inconsistent. NOLA just got hammered in San Diego, but it’s easy to think they couldn’t get motivated to play against the hapless Legion. They tend to look much better at home. Winner: Gold DC … Continue reading Spoiler Alert: MLR Round 10 – Part 2
Editor's Note: our Power Rankings tend to drop on Wednesday evening. This week, we have Wednesday Night Rugby. These rankings were made prior to the game and will not factor in that result. 1.

NOLA @ San Diego The Legion continues to inch closer to home, but their half backs remain hundreds of miles away. The Gold continue to make winning look hard, yet they keep rolling. No … Continue reading Spoiler Alert: MLR Round 9
