FC Dallas might be leading the Supporters Shield standings as the best team in MLS this season with eight matches left to play, but the first two battles with the Houston Dynamo in the Texas Derby have shown a chink in the armor of the league leaders.It remains to be seen if that gives the homestanding Dynamo a leg up of their Lone Star State rivals when the two sides battle for the third time this season on Saturday night at BBVA Compass Stadium in Houston.Houston is 5-10-10 and has a Western Conference-low 25 points through its 25 matches, but one of the wins and one of the draws it earned this season were against FC Dallas, which leads the league with 45 points.The Dynamo manhandled FC Dallas (13-6-7) 5-0 at home on March 12 in the two teams first meeting of the season, producing the most goals scored by a team and the largest margin of victory in the Texas Derby.Then, in Frisco on June 2, the two sides fought to a 1-1 draw. The clubs play for El Capitan, a 19th-century Mountain Howitzer cannon awarded to the winner of the season series by supporters groups for both teams.Both teams are coming off of midweek matches. While the Dynamo were home on Wednesday night, FC Dallas is traveling back from Nicaragua and a 1-1 draw against Real Esteli in the CONCACAF Champions League group stage.Houston managed a draw with Seattle, one of the hottest teams in MLS over the past month. The Dynamo have won just one of their past six matches but have forged four draws during that stretch.FC Dallas, which holds a two-point lead over Colorado and Toronto for the leagues best record, had their four-game undefeated run end in their last league match, a 1-0 loss on Aug. 20 at Real Salt Lake.Dallas has hard-nosed players in midfield that are good at winning the ball and theyre very solid across the back line, Houston interim coach Wade Barrett said.Theyve got good experience and quality throughout the roster, and it just seems like regardless of who they put out for any game, they perform at a similar level. You cant just prepare for one player or another, you have to prepare for the whole group. Sokratis Papastathopoulos Arsenal Jersey .

LAS VEGAS -- The U.S. Open was very exciting here at the ESPN Chalk desk, as I had Dustin Johnson as my top value pick at 12-1 and he came through for his first major title.Now, we certainly know that accolades are short-lived and this is a what have you done for me lately? business. But I was equally excited on June 20, the day after the U.S. Open, when the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook opened Johnson at 12-1 for this weeks British Open (er, The Open). I fully intended to bet Johnson to repeat.What I didnt expect was Johnson to rally and beat Jason Day in the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational on June 30-July 3 (he was the 8-1 second choice to Day and, no, I didnt bet him). That caused the Westgate to drop Johnsons Open odds to 8-1, and though he has drifted up to 9-1, I wrote in the U.S. Open preview that in a field of around 180 golfers, Im not willing to take less than double-ddigit odds on any golfer.dddddddddddd So were going to look elsewhere this week.The 145th Open returns to Royal Troon for the ninth time and the first time since 2004 when Todd Hamilton beat Ernie Els in a playoff. British bookmakers had Hamilton as high as 750-1. He was such an outsider that Vegas books at the time didnt have him on the board but instead part of the field bet at around 4-1. That shows how wide open the Open can be, and nowadays there are more books that offer most of the field as individual betting interests.In fact, Rob Nelson of ESPN Stats & Info points out that a favorite hasnt won The Open since Tiger Woods in 2006 and these are odds for the past seven years (note: Adam Scott was the 10-1 fave when Rory McIlroy won in 2014): ' ' '
