Excellent piece as always, but I would suggest that the Timbers effort did not match the occasion. With very occasional exceptions, one a miracle, the will to come up big and seize the day was not apparent in their play. I know this will touch a sore spot, but it's hard to imagine Seattle having this opportunity and blowing it.
Wow. Merritt Paulson knew about the abuse that Paul Riley was perpetrating while it was happening and did nothing?
