Making the playoffs eight straight years, and 21 of the past 23 years, is impressive. It is made more so because this trip to face the Colorado Rapids in the Conference Finals on November 22nd (CenturyLink) and 27th (Dick’s Sporting Goods Park) is their third MLS Conference Final (7 of last 15 including USL Sounders). Twice the NASL Sounders made the semifinals. Both of those appearances ended in NASL Soccer Bowl failure. But this is not the norm in Seattle sports.
