I can’t believe this is only my second blog post this year! I am so behind! (Of course, I have been contributing to Sounder at Heart all season long.) Anyway, last night the Seattle Sounders took on FC Dallas at CenturyLink Field in Seattle. The first half was not very …
What an amazing way to start the MLS season – Seattle Sounders beat the New England Revolution by a score of 3-0. The deadly striker duo of Clint Dempsey and Obafemi Martins started up right where they left off last year. Dempsey scored twice and Oba added a goal and …
