FWIW, Quioto and Ellis have been great for Houston

in the MLS this season. We shouldn't consider Honduras an easy game. MLS has been great for improving CONCACAF minnows.


Which is yet another problem I have with the MLS

It's not enough that our best players stagnate and even regress while playing in the MLS; all of a sudden we've provided an avenue for even the worst teams of CONCACAF to catch up. Almost every single one of our MLS players was dismal on the field Tuesday, while Honduras looks better than they ever have.

CONCACAF might show up big in the upcoming WC; the MLS has done a lot for the teams and I don't think Europe is nearly as strong as people think.
