Much has been made of the overwhelming success of Toronto FC and Seattle Sounders FC. Toronto FC in year three is a maturing club but it is clear that some things have become a fixture. The sold out crowds at BMO Field, the long lines at concessions, the beer garden as a distraction for casual fans, causing empty seats at sold out games and the "make money fast" philosophy of Toronto FC owner/operator, Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment. Meanwhile, in Seattle, it is clear the "rave green" cluThus, we may be Bailout FC, but Seattle is CurrentFad FC. Have you heard the new Seattle Sounders "scarves up" rap video?

Up the Timbers my friend, ...On July 23rd, the City Council of Portland, Oregon approved a plan to renovate PGE Park, home of USL-1 side Portland Timbers. The renovation and expansion of the long-time home of the Timbers was a point of contention – a requirement if the Timbers were to host MLS games at PGE Park, but one that required city financing. And so, as the mayor was paraded before the raucous Timbers Army, Portland’s supporters’ umbrella group, and the club-record 14,000 in attendance, fans rightfully celebrated the

I need you to do something for me. Go to the Chelsea FanFest at Qwest tomorrow from 4-6:30. I need you to go, because I can’t. Not that I’m doing anything more interesting or important tomorrow. The reason I can’t go is that I think I would embarrass myself. Seriously, I would be too awestruck. I’d probably even drool. And not in a dainty, feminine, dab-the-corner-of-your-mouth-with-a-napkin kind of way, either. I’d probably be more like my blackFrom the press release: SEATTLE – To commemorate FC Barcelona’s 2009 U.S. Tour, Argentine striker Lionel Messi today participated in one of the most unique photo opportunities to emerge from the city of Seattle.

This Saturday, Chelsea kicks off its preseason tour of the United States with a friendly against Seattle Sounders. Its the first of four matches the Blues will play across America this July.

They are Roy Bottiggi and Michael Dang . Congratulations both. Both Roy and Michael win

There is the final whistle and Seattle has done it. 2-1, or if you read the game preview, the exact score I predicted. This is the first one I got right all year and officially the best day of my life. 90+4′- All Seattle has to do is hold on now. Possess the ball and not give it away like Riley just did. Fredy is off the the races, plays it wide to Le Toux but the final ball is not good enough. 90′- Very unprofessional foul from Kamara. Yellow card and Freddie is wasting away Houston’s

If you’re looking for actual team news, I’m pretty sure that Steve will be back with game-related stuff very, very soon. In the meantime, I have some utterly trashily humorous news for you. Okay, so you remember ACES? The “Any Club Except Seattle” losers? The people who don’t support a team, they just hate on ours, despite the fact that we haven’t actually done anything to them? The people who think it’s just peachy keen to create “humor” out ofThe following article comes courtesy of the Oregonian and it seems to confirm what many suspected and what we've advocated: That MLS focus on the hardcore soccer fans more than the family friendly crowd as the former is far more likely to turn up to games and by multiple season tickets.

MLSR has learned from an anonymous but highly placed credible source the details of a story which if true, and we have reason to believe they are, underscores the inexperience and ineptitude of one member of the Seattle Sounders FC front office. Could this be the first crack in the wall of an otherwise "model franchise"? As the story goes, nearly a week ago, a member of Seattle's Emerald City Supporters group became concerned about the fact that there was no official away section in Portland f

Wednesday night was my first Seattle Sounders FC game viewed live from outside the pressbox. Some friends had some extra tickets so I bought a scarf and joined in the Qwest Field fun for 29,000 others. Great atmosphere. Great goals. Great letdown by the home side. An horrendous own goal by Tyrone Marshall in the 87th minute robbed Seattle of two deserved points and even more deserved respect from around the league. And while I might forget this disappointment soon, I will never forgetIt’s that time again! You know. Fan of the Week time! And with that, let’s meet our newest Fan of the Week, Adrienne ! History of the fandom: I got excited about soccer after visiting EnglandThat winning feeling, again! I know I’m reporting from the Department of the Obvious, but are these games not a lot more fun when we win? The feeling you get at the end when you’re waving your scarf and the players are making the rounds of the field… Warm fuzzies all ’round. Random thoughts: Kasey Keller. Wow . Nothing against either Dragavon or Eylander, but Keller is a rock! Five shots on goal, five saves. There is nothing that gets past this guy, and it affects the confiSo, Sounders hold on for the 2-1 win against a very unimpressive San Jose squad. They did a lot of things better this week, but still seemed to focus a bit too much for anyone’s liking on the refs. Either way, it is 3 points and a good start to the home stand. Man of the match honors for Mr. Ljunberg. Thank you to those who followed along and those who read the blog. See you on Wednesday for DC United!!!! 93′ Freddie has some words for the San Jose defenders and then receives a yellow
