Apologies in advance to those who don't celebrate Christmas and are tired of having songs like this shoved down your throat.

As pointed on on Nos Audietis, this is the latest in the year (and therefore closest to Christmas) the Sounders have ever played. So I thought it might be fun to reimagine a song or two. To the tune of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas":

Time again for Sounders MLS Cup
Let your voice be loud
Let them hear you over COVID-distanced crowds

Time again for Sounders MLS Cup
Make your nerves be calm
Nico's smile will offer up a soothing balm

Here we are on the road once more
Black and gold outdoors, we face
Faithful fans wearing blue and green
Gather round their screens, hearts race

Through the years
We've watched the Sounders triumph
with trophies, we're blessed
Stitch another start above Seattle's crest
And let's enjoy Columbus being second best

Here we are on the road once more
Zardes and Porter, we meet
Morris, Nouhou, and Roldan,
Showing scoring brawn, life's sweet

Through the years
We've watched the Sounders triumph
With trophies, we're blessed
Stitch another star above Seattle's crest
And show Columbus that the Sounders are the best!
