Sounders Scuttlebutt

With a strong draw against Nashville and then a diligent and euphoric victory over the Galaxy it certainly seems that we've found our happy thought and are about to take off. Will Miami make it? Rapinoe's final match Should MLS create a Central Conference? Dominance followed by listlessness but saved by Cristian vs LA Solid result against Nashville considering the circumstances Join our Scuttlebut...

We recorded a day late because Cameron too was busy attending the launch of one of the bigger moments in club history. AND WE HAVEN'T LOST IN OVER A MONTH! The Seattle Sounders are... still the Seattle Sounders but with a simplified yet similar, intrinsic, look. We talk about the new 50th anniversary branding transition and is this coinciding with a rebirth for both the club and the play on the pi...

We stopped losing! Draw against Minnesota, a win (a fucking WIN!) down in Austin and a disheartening(maybe?) draw against PDX at home. That's 5 points out of 9 and a week of rest before Dallas.

The woes continue for the Sounders. Coming back from an unwanted but perhaps needed 3 week break the Seattle Sounders fell 0-2 against ATL. They're still in a good playoff position at 4th in the West but with Minnesota, Austin (both playoff contenders) and recently beheaded Portland in the span of 7 days we're about to see if this team can gain some positive momentum or continue to remain middling...

The Sounders exited the Leagues Cup as terribly as you can. They gave up 7 goals and scored 2 in 180 minutes and those 2 came within minutes of each other at the onset of their last match against C.F. Monterrey. The Sounders find themselves lacking a consistent identity but will return to MLS play still in a viable playoff position with 10 matches left. But until then... what do they need to do to...

The Sounders flopped in Sandy. Not that a win is to be expected there but the performance was once of the worst efforts we've seen in a long while. Oh, and Miami is friggin good now. Like damn. Aaron and Cameron crack open beers with a good friend, AO Seattle activist, Alliance Council constituent, Pub League puppeteer and reoccurring guest of Scuttlebutt, Nicholaus Biela! THE BETTER WORLD CUP Clu...

We took a week off from recording to allow these last 3 matches to occur. We should've just done number 51 after Vancouver... Because the Seattle Sounders continue to dabble a little in dominating mediocrity falling to 4th in the Western Conference at the Leagues Cup break. Oh and they can't score goals... but will Roldan be our Superman? Aaron & Cameron discuss: Reign'ing on the World Cup! 8...

The Seattle Sounders once again beat Houston 1-0. And once again cards were flying! But so was the Sounders midfield, particularly on the left side. This could have been 3-1 victory but a win is all that truly matters. 50 episodes! Let's drink champagne... maybe MLS All Star game v Arsenal USA dominating their group Sounders look like the better team again but this time win! Can we siege the BC Pl...

Orlando came to visit the Seattle Sounders on Saturday, June 24th. They played quite well for most of the match. The defense was stiff and the offense was gelling. Yet, in the end, the Sounders couldn't score. Leaving fans deflated and unsatiated. The bluest balls you've ever seen are in... Seattle. USA 6-0 Saint Kitts and Nevis Is Defiance support a goal scoring solution? How does Arreaga's injur...

We are honored to have Willow Wilson join this episode! Finally some professionalism on this podcast! The Seattle Sounders scored multiple goals in a match for the first time in over 2 months but their usually staunch defense allowed the same amount of goals. The 3-3 draw in Charlotte gives us some hope, though, despite the USMNT taking Jordan Morris, Cristian Roldan and Alex Roldan. USA v Mexico...

The struggle bus the Sounders are riding continues to roll. The most recent stop was in Vancouver, BC where this match was not Duty Free. It was Doodie Full. Cameron and Aaron discuss: Messi a Miami: ¿Buena o mala? Champions League is Now a $5,000,000 Cup Sounders Can't Score Multiple Goals Should Nico come off the bench? Is RB Roldan dependent on his brother? CLT is a 2+ goal win or bust Join our...

Cameron and Aaron discuss: Why is Cameron naked? US Open Cup scores What F1 team/driver are the Sounders? This isn't just about injuries What position is our shallowest depth? How can Schmetzer fix this mess? Red Bull preview Join our Scuttle...

We recorded fresh off the loss at home to Austin FC. This was a tough one to sallow but we're not too worried. The Scuttlebutt was hot so we dedicated the entire show to topics and questions like: Providence update via Alliance Council Why do the sounders keep losing to bad teams? What is up with schmetzer's subs? Best lineup / Heber vs Montero vs Morris at the 9 Why are we so “talented” and so ba...

Our Seattle Sounders leave Sandy with 1 point and another shutout but the offensive struggles continue. Regardless of their inability to win at Salt Lake, the Sounders don't look or feel like the #1 team in the Western Conference standings. Aaron & Cameron discuss: Retired MLS drug cartels MLS clubs make up 36% of the top 50 wealthiest clubs LAFC and their path to the CCL Final Why can't Léo C...

The Seattle Sounders looked to be surfing past San Diego Loyal in their first match of the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup tournament... until Uncle Schmetz subbed off Léo Chú at halftime. That is when the true essence of Lamar Hunt Open Chaos. Aaron and Cameron discuss: Leyva Loaned Griezmann's Seattle Tease Open Cup Chaos Loons Lose Will the #Sounders win in Sandy?

The Seattle Sounders arrived in Portland as one of the hottest clubs in MLS. Despite missing Cristian Roldan and Albert Rusnák they actually controlled most of the game and by the 69th minute had 1-0 advantage... The the struggling Timbers take advantage of one of the more questionable tactical moves we've seen in a long time... Less Scuttle, more butt... the Kraken win! Live reactions to USAvMEX...

The Sounders unseat the St. Louis City SC for top spot in the West and sit 2nd in the Supporter's Shield race. Biggest takeaways we noted: Josh Atencio bags his first professional goal in emphatic style and Ruidiaz scores minutes after entering the match. Next up is the festering log that is the Portland Timbers. Red Bullshit Ramadan recognized in MLS Scuttlebutt Mailbag SLC Review Portland Away p...

The Seattle Sounders travel down to Carson and the stars of this team aligned to take 3 points back home. Léo Chú, Nico Lodeiro and Jordan Morris put us in a good position for the win and then Stefan Frei along with a resilient defense thwarted the second half onslaught from the Galaxy. Aaron and Cameron discuss: English Football allowed Muslim footballer to break fast Pete Fewing retires from SU...

The international break gave Léo Chú the opportunity for a break out performance and holy Schmetz did he perform. Chú was critical to Jordan Morris' record breaking 4 goal performance against Sporting KC in the cauldron de azul. Cameron and Aaron discuss: Secondary assists. Also, Léo Chú. Messi to MLS? Also, Léo Chú. How do the Sounders compare to England clubs? Also, Léo Chú. The best performance...

The Sounders and LAFC both looked like they're two of the top teams in the MLS. They also looked to score a goal a number of times... but neither did. 0-0 result on the most beautiful day in Seattle in a long time. Nicholaus Biela, of Alliance Council, ECS and AO Seattle joins Cameron and Aaron to discuss: Memorial Stadium News Bruce Lee Kit Debut ECS Pub League friendly event with Ballbrack Seagu...

The Seattle Sounders get their first loss on their first away match; 1-0 in Cincy at TQL Stadium. They didn't get dominated but the dominating style we saw through the first two was missing.
