Jordan Morris did not have much of an offseason after winning the MLS Cup with the Seattle Sounders.
But he tried to make the most of it.
Shortly after the team’s chilly celebratory parade downtown in mid-December, he took off for a warmer climate with his family: A 10-day vacation in Costa Rica.
Oh yeah, he also got his wisdom teeth pulled.
“That was pretty fun,” he said, sheepishly, after his first preseason training session with the club Sunday at CenturyLink Field.
Really?
“No, it wasn’t fun,” Morris said. “It was terrible.”
What wasn’t terrible was how Morris, Seattle’s second-year forward, spent much of January and early February.
