Your 2008 Budweiser Scoring Leader

I realize that this sounds like the person who got the most beer-goggle induced action, but it's a statistic Major League Soccer tracked up until 2004. The league used to award two points for a goal and one point for an assist, and then add these two totals up to declare an overall "scoring winner."

I thought it might be interesting to see who would have won this year. Not surprisingly, Landon Donovan won this by virtue of his 20 goal/9 assist season.

Here's the top ten:

            G   A  total
Donovan    20   9   49
Cooper     18   3   39
Buddle     15   3   33
Schelotto   7  19   33
Angel      14   3   31
Ching      13   5   31
Moreno, J  10  10   30
Emilio     11   5   27
Morales     6  15   27
Barrett, C  9   7   25
Rolfe       9   7   25
Blanco      7  11   25
