The Sounders only needed two out of three matches against Houston to advance which means they've been sitting idle for over a week. However, both ECS Pub League and MLS provided entertaining matches this weekend... It was FUN WEEK for pub league; BBQ and booze, Cameron scored a PK, Aaron and Nicholaus both turned heads with their glamours, attention seeking birthday attire and the rest of MLS playoff contenders caught up. The semifinals are set!
