After the showing against LAFC, at home, no less, the Pow Wow has plenty to say about where we see the team in the grand scheme of MLS. Discussion about Leagues Cup and the overwhelming disinterest of this podcast (thank you, cash grab). And the show is taking a couple weeks off to enjoy the summer (not the Leagues Cup, I can assure you).…

We wanted a test and we got one. Unfortunately, it’s hard to escape the reality that hte Sounders failed it pretty badly, falling 3-0 to LAFC on Saturday. I think the scoreline was probably a little unfair as the Sounders generated several good scoring chances, had a legit penalty shout waved off and gave up two goals they shouldn’t have, but they …

The Seattle Sounders have been on a really nice run but they have mostly been beating pretty bad teams. They’ll get their biggest test of the season when they face LAFC on Saturday. To help preview the game, Niko Moreno joins Jeremiah. They also discuss some of the drama going on behind-the-scenes and look ahead to Leagues Cup. Sponsors Full Pull W…

Unbeaten in eight? Is this the Sounders as they should be or is this a glitch in the matrix and we aren't as good as our recent record says we are? Troy quizzes, Jonathon rants and Katy morbids. Join us, won't you?By Sounders Pow Wow

The suddenly surging Seattle Sounders will host St. Louis City on Wednesday, an opponent very much going in the opposite direction. St. Louis have gone just 1-8-3 in their past 12 games, which includes a 2-1 loss at home to the Sounders in their previous meeting. Since then, St. Louis has fired their head coach and doesn’t appear to be much closer …

Recently, someone asked if the Sounders were a good bad team or a bad good team and after another successful week I’m leaning toward maybe just a good team. On Saturday, the Sounders scored a pretty comprehensive 2-0 win over the New England Revolution and followed that up two days later with a road win over the Sacramento Republic in the quarterfi…

What on Earth is going on here with a show all released on a Monday, BEFORE an Open Cup match? Practically blasphemous. Another quiz from Katy, reviews and speculations, opinions and silliness. And a brief discussion of the match against Austin.By Sounders Pow Wow

Adam Moffat only spent part of a season with the Seattle Sounders, but the MLS veterans still remembers that 2013 season fondly even if it didn’t end quite as everyone had hoped. Now a color commentator for the Sacramento Republic, we caught up with Moffat to get some insight into Tuesday’s opponent in the U.S. Open Cup quarterfinal. Sponsors Full …

The New England Revolution got off to one of the worst starts in MLS history, but have since improved dramatically with five wins in their past six matches. To help us understand what is going on with Caleb Porter’s new team, we enlisted the help of Sam Minton, who runs The Blazing Musket. Sponsors Full Pull Wines Nos Audietis is the flagship podca…

In our constant effort to right-size our offerings, we’ve decided to start doing monthly mailbag episodes. This is the first of those episodes. Among the topics we tackle are expectations for the summer transfer window, explore the usefulness of G+ and try to explain why there were so few MLS-era players at the 50th Anniversary celebration. Sponsor…

Hope your celebrations for America's birthday are better than you could have wished. The Pow Wow has plenty to say about the lack of the US in the Copa America Round of 16, how good we really think the Sounders team is this year and if you are looking for an alternate explanation for goings on in Sounderland, look no further. Jonathon has officiall…

We finally having a bonafide winning streak to talk about. Fresh off their seven-point week, the Sounders followed that up with another come-from-behind win, this time beating the Chicago Fire 2-1. Like their previous two results, the Sounders needed to come from behind in this one. But after playing some of their least inspiring soccer of the seas…

The Chicago Fire are mired in last place of the Eastern Conference, but don’t let that fool you. Ever since Xherdan Shaqiri left for the Euros, the Fire have been playing pretty decent soccer. In five games without their “captain”, the Fire are 2-1-2, which includes a home win over the LA Galaxy and a road win over Toronto FC. To get a better idea …

After a week without Troy, Eventually returns with a new segment. You be the judge if it continues. Plenty of talk about the Negative Nancy syndrome, what's happening internally with the Sounders and what we expect with the upcoming match against Chicago. And your questions.By Sounders Pow Wow

Say what you will about the consistency the Seattle Sounders have shown over the past few months, but we can probably all agree that they’ve never been quite as entertaining as they were during the last week. The Sounders registered their first seven-point week and did it in particularly interesting style, twice coming back from two goals down to e…

When last we talked, the Sounders had just lost to Sporting KC and we were openly wondering if it was time to admit that they might just be a bad team. You’ll have to pardon the whiplash, but two games later we think that was probably an unfair conclusion and are now wondering the opposite. No, a 2-0 win over Minnesota United and a 2-2 draw with th…

The last time the Sounders were embarassed like that in Sporktown, we lost our coach. The Pow Wow is not taking bets on the final result of this latest humbling by the last place team in the league (for the second time this season). Questions, answers, attitude and vitriol. Welcome to Eventually.By Sounders Pow Wow

It’s hard to accurately describe just how frustrating Saturday’s result was, but I’ll try. Facing a team that was pretty awful by both the eye and analytics test, that hadn’t won in like three months, the Sounders managed to find a way to lose despite scoring first. There were all sorts of problems in this game from subbing patterns, to a lack of d…

Jimmy Mack of KC Soccer Journal and No Other Pod joins us to provide some insight into Saturday's opponent, Sporting KC. Just like the last time these two teams faced, Sporting KC comes in on a 10-game winless run. Unlike last time, the underlying numbers suggest Sporting is just as bad as their record suggests.
