MLS Pick ‘Em 2016 – Playoffs – Semi-Final
Round one was a doozy with a tie, and two writers that picked 50% of the games correctly. Here’s how everything shook out after the round:
Bracket
Eric Walcott, the supporters shield winner, faces off against Ned Joyce. Ned came into the playoffs as a dark horse, but he proved the skeptics wrong with an amazing performance in round 1. Can Eric buck the trend of the first round bye?
The second matchup is a battle of the Joes. Joe Hojnacki also had five right in round one, and looks to continue his hot streak into the finals. I came into the playoffs ranked second, and that is exactly what my picks were last week. I survived my draw with Dan thanks to Bradley Wright-Phillips scoring 10 points last week. Will I be sent to the sidelines this week for more foul play?
