Yeah… it’s old news by now… but just like a Missisippi State loss, I have to bring it up on the blog.
That’s one savior you got there.
The Seattle Sounders may be our new love, but Brilla’s mission has always been something I’ve admired.

Hate that I missed it, but 3 weeks ago the blog had its 225,000 hit. Thanks.
It’s a good thing that loses and bad loses count for the same amount… because we just lost 1-11. But hey… it’s good exercise, and for once I’m not the worst person on the team.
4 strawberries (3 on the left leg, 1 on the right) and left toe nail with blood trapped underneath are helping me feel like a tough guy.
We’ll get ‘em next time… hopefully.
