We suffocate other teams. No one is even close.

Yet, somehow we are 3W-3L & in 12th place overall after playing 5 crappy teams.

We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

Props for the effort! Truly MF-like!
Totals do not include friendlies/pre-season.
Ramos scored in a 1999 friendly, nowhere else.
Too bad Felipe did not pot one prior to his departure. What non-scorers are likely to add to the current total? Kemar usually good for an annual goal. Lade scored once in USOC.

I think Bezecourt, Parker, and Bonomo all have a pretty good chance of getting a goal by the end of the season, plus the aforementioned Taxi.
