Guerillas in the Street

Or at least in the stadium and why wouldn't there be a gorilla or two marching around? I hope that he at least had his id with him so he could drink one of those $8.25 beers that I may have accidentally consumed at the game.

I'm in the mood to crop this picture a little and make a little motivational poster of sorts, but I can't seem to come up with anything truly inspiring...caption it for me and I promise to make a stunning poster.

SUPERFANZ

New Contender

Come on everybody, I know you can't see his face too well, but I'm thinking the guy with the hair has gotta to be the hottest fan.....and still proudly adorned the same way though the game was almost over.

These are my original pics of some of Seattle's coolest fans. Not sure who the dude is in the back of the two blue-headed girls, but that's quite all right. Also, the kid with the mohawk was totally awesome and may just have the "raddest" mom ever.

We lost the game last night, but our MOJO is still firmly intact. I would like to stress the fact that every single fan in the house was standing throughout the entire game. True, the singing could use some work, "Let's go Sounders" was a constant chant, but there was nothing for the team or the fans to be ashamed of during the match.

Sounders Fans Rule! Reason #237

Where are the hooligans?

Everyone says that Seattle has followed the European tradition of Soccer, ahem Football to use the preferred term, to a perfect "T". I totally disagree. While we have ardent, rabid, naked, singing fans, strong community support for the Sounders, and scarves, we lack the levels of violent support that make European Football (especially English) so great....how long do we have to wait until the fans become brutal and ugly in their fervent desires to support their team?

By this, I mean to show my pride for the very cool nature of Sounders Fans.....Here's another great video exemplifying why Seattle Sounders and their fans kick arse....

SoundersBoard: Who are you and why are you here?

Welcome to SoundersBoard! We began drunkenly after a recent Sounders game. That’s the problem with early afternoon games. What do you do with yourself by 4pm – Sleep? Keep drinking? Create a blog? Keep drinking and create a blog? Bingo! Apologies if you somehow found your way to our site that day, although you did get to see some good pictures of... never mind. At least we managed to fix the spelling of the site from the original listing of SoundersBored.

We’re a group of Seattle friends who have found themselves somewhat accidentally in love with Seattle Sounders FC. In a matter of weeks we’ve come to obsess about our local club. The result has been copious hours spent “homing from work” (a variation of working from home) in which we spend a few hours a day looking for good Sounders FC stuff online – videos, articles, pictures, fan camaraderie, anything to feed the soul of a fan between matches. After just a few weeks into the season it’s clear that either we are spending too much time homing from work or there are not enough Sounders FC happenings on the web. Enter SoundersBoard.

SoundersBoard is about fans. We’re no experts and we’re not pretending to be serious (as if the boobs didn’t give that away already). This is a place for fans in the true sense of the word:

fa⋅nat⋅ic  [fuh-nat-ik] –noun
1. a person with an extreme and uncritical enthusiasm or zeal, as in religion or politics [or soccer].

We’re rather extreme in our enthusiasm (again, boobs) and we are wholly uncritical. Which is why you’ll want to bookmark another blog that debates whether Stellar McPlayer should be part of the starting lineup if that’s what you’re in to. We like that too but can’t promise any incisive commentary from this group. Instead we’ll provide a forum to celebrate girl/boy meets soccer club meets thirty thousand new confederates in a city that they love.

With any luck we’ll contribute to a community of Sounders FC fans that are rabid in their support and a little risqué in their approach. Wanna “Show us your (or your girlfriend’s) ah... scarf?” Got some great photos or video from a recent game or pre/post-funk where you got your swerve on? Send them to soundersboard@gmail.com.

And also, we’re hilarious. Welcome to our world.
