Sounders Win (Without Me)

I'm on vacation in San Diego, so I missed the Saturday afternoon game with Houston, which Seattle put away 2-1. More here & here.  Sounders are looking good in the table, just 3 points behind the Dynamo. After a great start, a muddling middle of the season, the Rave Green are on fire again.

It's also nice to see Steve Kelley trying hard to cover the Sounders from time to time, here waxing poetic about the front line tandem of Jacqua and Montero.

The huge speed bump to the MSL that is PGE Park looks to have finally been cleared, with a deal reached between Portland and the Timbers' owner (the City Council still has to apply its rubber stamp). Much as I dislike things Portland, it'll be good to have the Timbers in the league. The Sounders need a mortal enemy, a derby rival, and we'll get two, with the Timbers and Vancouver.

I'm looking forward to seeing Chelsea, Saturday, when we return!
