On April 11th I asked Sounders owner/GM Adrian Hanauer about Seattle MLS...He gave this brief but enlightening response...
MLS is still of interest to me, but I am not going to do it alone. When
someone else in Seattle (or somewhere else in the world) steps up to support
professional soccer in this community, I will be there to partner with them.
I have been birddogging the community for 2 years now, and have yet to find
someone dying to invest in MLS. I have found several minor partners, but
have yet to find someone willing to step up to be a major partner. I am
hopeful, though, that as the league continues to make progress... That
someone will come out of the woodwork to help support the cause.
