Sounders Fall to Columbus for the First Time

Seattle’s franchise-best start to the season has been faltering as of late. This Wednesday the Columbus Crew got the better of the Sounders for the first time in the 8 matches they’ve played over the past 3 years. There weren’t a lot of highlights for the home side, so let’s …

Project 365: Days 181-189

I haven’t been able to go for quite the extended walk like I did on Day 180, but I did get past a big milestone — the halfway point! I’ve made it past the 6 month mark. It’s all downhill from here! (Or that’s what I’m telling myself, anyway.) Follow …

Day 180: A Walk to the Sound

As I mentioned in my last post, I recently made a Twitter pact with a friend vowing not to give up on our individual Project 365s. (Sidenote…what’s more binding, a Twitter pact or a pinky swear?) The day after making that commitment I decided to take a walk down to …

Project 365: Days 157-166

The last ten days seemed to pass in an instant. A weekend in Portland and lots of work have made these increasingly longer days of Spring speed quickly by. I was close to posting this sooner, but simply didn’t make the time. I sense, though, that I might be getting …

My First Visit to Jeld-Wen Field in Portland

This past Saturday I went to what many Seattle Sounders fans might refer to as the lion’s den — Jeld-Wen Field in Portland, OR. (OK, that’s probably not exactly the phrase that would be used, but hey, my mom might read this!) It was a gorgeous sunny day and the …

Project 365: Days 147-156

This installment of my Project 365 covers the last ten days of shooting. I’m writing it while riding the train down to Portland, though I may not post it until later. Connectivity is not the greatest on the train! But I figured there’s no better time than present to get …

Scott’s Header Gives Sounders the Win

One of the most unlikely players gave the Seattle Sounders its only goal in a 1-0 win against the Colorado Rapids on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Right back Zach Scott, one of the few remaining Sounders from back in the USL days, scored his first MLS goal off a header …
