While I may have failed to accurately assess the final score, I think all who watched the game will agree the better team won in Houston.

If the Sounders could've finished, well, they wouldn't be the Sounders now would they? We may have had Houston's number this season, but how often is a team as good as the Dynamo going to give you five in a row?

And from a referee's point of view, Riley's red card...no question. Thought he was gonna get sent-off as soon as he lost the ball and started coming into that challenge, the replay confirmed it for me.

Do I love my Sounders? Heck yeah. Am I proud of them? Heck yeah. Do we need to finish more of our chances? Heck yeah.

The Tribe 131 Sounders Pow Wow Podcast will continue through the playoffs, the MLS Cup and right on through until next season. If you haven't checked it out, we're getting better. And we'll actually be doing minutes of research for not only the expansion draft on November 25 but also the Superdraft (whenever that is).
