MLS Reserve Division 2008 Standings (Sep-11)

Since there're no games this weekends & the next game is still 6 days away, just update the tables for now, with title elimination time line, as well as cleaning-up some re-scheduled games that have already taken place:

Games played last week(s):
9/10 Wed. FC Dallas Houston Dynamo HOU, 3-1

Highlights:
So far 8 games are postponed, I wonder if they will ever be made-up. If not, a new record will be set, surpassing last season's 5 cancelled games.

Notes on Sep-13:
Per http://kc.wizards.mlsnet.com/news/te....jsp&team=t103, the outstanding reserve game between KCW & DCU will not be made up. In this case, the max pts KCW can have is 26. This has paved the way for Houston, who need just 6 more pts from their last 3 games to seal the title. (HOU currently hold the tie-breaker against the next closest challenger, RSL)
