Some big news out of the Sounders camp came late last night!

The MLS Schedule is out and we also find out about the Rivalry Games! Seattle Full Schedule at the bottom of this page.

He grew up in Seattle and played at the UW, now it looks like he will finally get a chance to prove himself overseas and but where is the question?

Kelyn Rowe's dream will come true next week. That's when the Federal Way High School graduate will officially become a professional soccer player.

Some will say it's easier to go the college route then the pro's or academy teams then hope to be spotted, but for one kid his dream will come to fruition soon.
"It's mentally tough, but I've been doing this for a long time and you get used to it," he said. "I moved to Switzerland [to join the Grasshoppers academy] when I was 12, so I've been over here quite a while." How much desire does it take to want it that bad?


Everton 1 – Bolton 2 (Premier League, January 4, 2012)(Tim Howard with 80 yard Goal)



Tim Howard scored a nice goal on Wednesday but was that the best goal by a keeper we have ever seen? Here are the "Top 10 Goals by a Keeper" and then there is this one which is probably the best ever!!


Newcastle 3 – Manchester United 0 (Premier League, January 4, 2012)



We could soon see wantaway forward "Carlos Tevez" in the Rosso Neri of AC Milan, Pato, Tevez, Ibrahimovic and when better Cassano. Not a bad combo!!


Barcelona 4 – Osasuna 0 (Copa del Rey last 16, January 4, 2012)



The reason Jeff Parke was called into the USMNT camp!! The one thing that Klinsmann has been doing for American players is getting them opportunities overseas!!


Real Sociedad 2 – Mallorca 0 (Copa del Rey last 16 first leg, January 4, 2011)




There is ironic twist to the story surrounding David Beckham’s possible re-signing with the MLS Cup champion LA Galaxy. Club owners AEG confirm that if an agreement on a deal is not reached, there is a long list of soccer stars waiting to be signed: “We have players knocking at our door, world-class players, some of them pretty shocking," says Tim Leiweke. "The guys that want to come to L.A. now. They're chasing us. We're not chasing them."


AC Milan 1 – PSG 0 (Friendly, January 4, 2011)



I watched the USA U17 team play and beat Brazil 3-1 about a month ago and this kid only 15 stole the show from the Brazilians, now it looks like MLS wants his talents!!


Perth Glory 3 – Brisbane Roar 3 (A-League, January 4, 2011)



Landon Donovan made his 2012 debut for Everton on Wednesday versus Bolton, but Tim Howard stole the headlines with a surprising long-distance goal. Here are five notes on Howard's stunning accomplishment.


Central Coast Mariners 2 – Melbourne Victory 0 (A-League, January 4, 2011)



Beckham will re-sign with the Galaxy probably for 2 or 3 years (Since he is on the record wanting to play unitl 40) then I see him grabbing a handful of "Golden Balls" and buying an MLS franchise!!


All USMNT Goals from 2011



It's a cut throat business over in the EPL, and it's even worse when it comes to signing contracts!!
