The current standings from 2016 are on the left, and the final standings from 2015 are on the right. These stats already reveal some very interesting things about the league and how it is growing.

From this graph I am going to talk about the following topics: The goals this year, The Dynasty Teams, Rags to Riches, The Fallen
Goal, Goal, Goooooooooooal
The stats say that in 2015 536 goals were scored, in 2016 however, half-way through the season, 937 goals were scored!
The Dynasty
There are a handful of teams that could be considered a dynasty in the MLS today. They are the following: LA Galaxy, Sporting Kansas City
Rags to Riches
Just the opposite of these dynasty teams these are teams this season who have come roaring back to life from the brink of death. Last year it was the Impact of Montreal, now it is the Philadelphia Union and, wait...what? The Colorado Rapids!?!?
The Fallen
Oh how the mighty have fallen. Houston Dynamo, you have been here for quite some time now. There are now others who have joined your group. Welcome to the bottom of the table Seattle, D.C. and Columbus.
