The past 2 weeks have seen the Galaxy outscore their opponents by a combined score of 8-2.  First it was the 5-1 thrashing of FC Dallas and this past weekend a 3-1 victory over the Kansas City Wizards.  Not only are Donovan and Beckham getting the goals, but Edson Buddle has stepped up and notched 4 goals in the past 2 games.

This bring the Galaxy up to 14 points which is good enough right now to put them on top of the Western Conference.  Although they are on top of the west their 14 points is only enough to put them in a tie for 4th/5th place overall in the league.  The Eastern conference seems to be the tougher conference at the beginning of the year.
