Who was your top player against the Houston Dynamo?

Let’s give some love to Matt Hedges for his 180 minutes+ of performances last week, earning him another Workhorse of the Week nod.

Has the Houston rivalry cooled?

Houston and FC Dallas have now faced each other twice, and each time, both teams have come away with a draw. The games are well-coached, but let’s face it - they are missing the edge that we hunger for in the Texas rivalry. Red cards? Gritty performances? Stunning performances? All missing.

I don’t know that the rivalry will regain its spark and intensity with both teams satisfied with a draw, but the third leg will likely be true test with huge points on the line.

Again, I don’t think this is due to the players or a lack of passion…
