This match is about self definition. It is not about FC Dallas and what they are doing. It is not about the weakened lineup that Sigi Schmid will again be using. It is about having the initiative and doing something with it. There will still be several talented players on the field for Seattle Sounders FC. If they play at their ability and the supporting cast plays to the strengths of their leaders the game should be in Seattle's favor. If not, the depression of Sounders fans will match our region's status in conventional wisdom.
