Commentary: A chance to play for an MLS Cup at home in 50th Anniversary season would be remarkable
The Sounders have a chance to fill a home stadium with close to 70,000 fans and play for MLS Cup in their 50th Anniversary Season. That's a house no one is blowing down.
Commentary: The Big Bad Wolf once again standing in the way of Sounders path to title
The Big Bad wolf huffed and puffed and blew the first two houses down, but the third one held strong. If Leagues Cup and U.S. Open Cup were Houses One and Two, the MLS Playoffs represent House Number Three.

Commentary: Dan Wilson hire complicates decision on Dipoto’s future with Mariners
If ownership decided to get rid of Dipoto, they’d be left with a dilemma: Either fire their popular, respected, and venerated brand new full-time manager, Dan Wilson, also. Or, even crazier, make it a stipulation for any new president or general manager to keep Wilson as their skipper.

Commentary: Mariners first-place disappearing act another example of their magical talent

Commentary: Time for Chambers Bay to sever one-sided “partnership” with USGA
The U.S. Open now has venue sites solidified through 2043 and U.S. Women's Open sites through 2036. The lack of love from the USGA after the renovation of greens at Chambers Bay is disappointing to say the least.
Commentary: Caitlin Clark Olympic snub is short-sighted, reflects poorly on USA Basketball
