Does Anyone Understand the NASL/USSF Schedule

Okay Guys, Look I know i'm new to North America but according to the Link Below 12 teams will play 30 games (15 home and 15 away). Thats seems a little lobsided to me. Will some teams play more than one team twice? If so how do you determine who plays who - do we have glass bowls and warm balls? :confused:

yes There is some teams we play 4 times and some 2 times.

Speaking for the Impact; Rochester, Carolina, Baltimore, Vancouver, 4 times each

Miami, St Louis, Austin, Minnesota, Portland, Islanders and Tampa Bay we play 2 times each

Basically you have a couple extra games against your closest geographical derby rivals.

Thank guys

This seems to make sense, considering the Legal Shinanigins involved. Also seems fairly equitable, unlike the plan for a 39th EPL game mentioned some months back.

Been a Brit I'm use to a symetrical season with one home game and one away game against each team in the division. But the English game (and to some extent most of europe) has to work as it does because of Promotion and relegation through the respective Divisions.
