Hi! Hey! Hello! Sound Off is back after a little World Cup break…and it feels just absolutely amazingly great. Furthermore, the USA is still alive and kicking in the tournament and there has been some absolutely excellent action thus far.
To further that this excellent wave of soccer we are currently riding, the Sounders resumed MLS league play on Saturday…with a win at DC United. This year is shaping up pretty nicely for Seattle who now holds a 10-point lead at the top of the table. Love it. For now, links and other fun things.
