Presumptive Head Coach Brian Schmetzer addressing the fans

Tonight, after thirty-four hard-fought contests, our second season begins.

Ten months have passed since we first stood together on the fields of Starfire in Tukwila, Washington. Thousands of miles have been traveled. Millions of voices have been heard. And because of what you said. Because you believed that this year must be different than all the rest. Because you chose to listen. Not to your doubts or your fears, but to your greatest hopes and highest aspirations. Tonight we mark the end of one historic journey with the beginning of another – a journey that will bring a new and better day to MLS.
