Somebody’s gotta do it, right?
Somebody has to shake you free from the entirely too optimistic feeling that accompanies the little gap between MLS Decision Day and the start of the playoffs — and it looks like this year, Backheeled is stepping up to the plate.
Look, we don’t really hate your team. Here at Backheeled, we love your team. And we love you. And we want you and your team to be happy and win things and be better than everyone else and live forever and ever and ever. But consider this preparation for the inevitable sadness that will set in for sympathetic viewers of the eight (or nine!) Eastern Conference playoff teams that won’t be lifting MLS Cup on December 6th.
Sure, one team from the East could win the darn thing, but we're just playing the odds here, people. We're guarding your heart so you don’t have to.
You’re welcome.
