The ties that bind
Posted by Jose Romero
Here's the Saturday Sounders FC story, my look into draws affecting the team and the high number of them around Major League Soccer.
The team seems to be OK with getting draws for the most part because it's better than losing, but made clear that wins are what it is after.
Just came back from an amazing Dodgers-Phillies game, LA wins in bottom ninth with two runs with two outs. Fun.
Side note...Dave Clark from Sounder at Heart, a guy with a wealth of soccer knowledge, informs me that Sounders FC rookie fourth-round draft pick Mike Fucito will rejoin the team as soon as next week, now that he's graduated from Harvard. I hope to get team confirmation tomorrow.
