Pro Quality. Fan Perspective.
Around SBN: Interview With UMD Athletic Director, Dr. Debbie Yow

Today

Wear the Rave Green. Wear the Blue. Wear your pin, and speak with pride.

Today, our fair city, our great region reenters the top flight of US soccer. Today, an energy drink company will wind up tired and frustrated. Today, there is a new beginning.

One of my group is bringing a radio so we might be able to hear Kevin Calabro, it is a brilliant idea, though a part of me hopes that the ECS inspires the crowd to overwhelm his tiny radio.

Today, the Huskies and Bulldogs look to advance. Don't ignore these events, just remind your coworkers, friends, and fellow students that March Madness is annual, and there will never be another First Kick in MLS. Watch those games while getting ready for the match, and then encourage your mates to watch/listen to the Sounders match. There are ratings points to be earned.

If the Upper Bowl should have been opened, than the TV Ratings should be amazing tonight, even going up against the Tourney.

Today, the quest for a Cup starts again. Today, New York turns Rave Green with envy. Today, MLS joins Seattle's league.

Match analysis will be up mid-day tomorrow, and will be something you've never seen before concerning US soccer. But TODAY is about the theater, today is about an event as much as about a game.

I’m still in the inquiry mode, but I’ll admit to being sad that I can’t partake in this experience in person today. So, have a good time for me!

I really hope this thing sticks here and grabs a great following! I want to be sucked in, but I only have so much time and devotion…

Dave,

just thought you should know i finally remembered to bring my membership card to work so i could vote for you to be on the council. I really enjoy your perspective on the game and the sounders and think you’d be a great choice to represent me and the other fans. Good luck! keep up the good work.

Dumb questions to ask from a out-of-town newbie to the sport, but:

which station is carrying the game on the radio, and is that station on line?

by Stephen LaRose on Mar 19, 2009 12:23 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

710 ESPN and 97.3 KIRO FM

www.mynorthwest.com, but I don’t know if they are going to stream it, you may have to use www.mlsnet.com for the audio.

Fan.
Tas.
TIC!

I’ve watched most of the game so far (unfortunately w/o a radio) and I’ve been thoroughly entertained. Things I’ve learned about Seattle thus far:

Montero is really good
Keller still has something in the tank
They’re an aggressive attacking team and seemed reasonably tight today.

I really could become a fan of this, especially being there in person. Heck of a debut thus far!

That was awesome in HD. I can only imagine how high you are, Mr. Clark!

WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

WHAT A GAME!!!!!!!!!

Man, chanting for 90 minutes really takes the energy right out of you, but I’m glad I did. What an amazing way to start off the season
