With a rare break in scheduled practices and games that was actually two days in a row and on the weekend, the Seattle Sounders players were able to relax a bit. Usually off days are in middle of the week and just a single day. Having the same days off as their friends and family is rare. Several Sounders took advantage of that, but the sting of losing on Friday night diminished their ability to to purely enjoy the decent weather and lack of practices.
“I went out to Rattlesnake Ridge, hiked up there. That was my first time going there,” Will Bruin said after Monday’s practice.
