MLS Cup week is upon us, and the guys take a look at Saturday's match. But first, they chat about Don Garber's State of the League address and the league's expansion plans. Zach Woosley, of SB Nation and Dynamo Theory, joins the show to talk about the Houston Dynamo side of things. He talks about why Dominic Kinnear might've been doing a happy dance last week and also explains why the Dynamo are not to be overlooked. He also talks about why this year's Dynamo team is better than the incarnation that lost last year's MLS Cup. Next, the LA Galaxy Insider, Adam Serrano, gives the view from Los Angeles. Serrano shares what the Galaxy attack will do to try and get through Houston's vaunted defense and who the key players not named Beckham, Donovan and Keane will be. He also reflects on how the Galaxy's fans view the David Beckham era and what's next for the club after the star's departure. All that plus your normal MLS chat on today's MLS in 30.

Ordinary Orange Fan joins the Red Priests to discuss the upcoming Chicago Fire/Houston Dynamo playoff match. Have a listen!

Former Dynamo and current DC United midfielder, Dwayne DeRosario, was injured during Canada's match yesterday. You never really wish this on any team, but it certainly won't hurt the Dynamo's playoffs push to have DCU down a pivotal player like DeRo. This is also more reason for the Dynamo to take the full three points on Friday!

We pretty much knew this would be the case, but it's still a bummer considering how much he's meant to the team. Either way, we know he'll be a part of the Dynamo organization moving forward in come capacity.
