Hello Fans, Welcome to the first installment of the Major League Soccer Power Ranking Index.  I have taken five of the top sources from American Soccer and used their own MLS power rankings.  The Index below reflects the average of these sources.  The points are simply their individual power rankings added up.  Lower score reflects a higher ranking.
