MLS Power Rankings: Week 15

The Seattle Sounders may be the hottest team in the league on a three game winning streak but its very hard to unseat a team that earned a road point without Donovan or Beckham.  Then during the game lost their starting goalkeeper to injury, their backup to a red card and played the second half with a man down and a 5'9" forward Mike Magee in goal.  No major risers this week with Sporting KC rising two spots while New York fell three spots after a loss and draw this past week.
