    I come in peace.

    As disappointed as you must all be, remember that no matter what else Seattle do, they will never be able to erase this...

    In the space of a week, the Portland Timbers, the 2015 MLS champions, failed to reach the 2016 playoffs and were eliminated from the Scotiabank Concacaf Champions League. The nightmare week got worse Monday night when Timbers captain Liam Ridgewell and starting goalkeeper Jake Gleeson were both arrested on charges of driving under the influence of intoxicants.

    How could two players be booked for DUII?

    KATU reported that Gleeson crashed his BMW and called Ridgewell to pick him up. The airbags in Gleeson's BMW deployed, so an alert that the airbags had been deployed went to authorities.

    Lake Oswego police arrived at the crash, field sobriety tests were conducted, and Ridgewell and Gleeson were found to be intoxicated. Neither took a breath test, but both were booked into Clackamas County jail. The Oregonian reported that Gleeson was also charged with reckless endangering and reckless driving. Both posted $7,500 bail.

    I honestly couldn’t care less about the stuff he said 11 years ago. He was hired to be the England women’s coach after all of that, I’m sure he’s fine, but damn if that dude has no actual track record of success. His interview must have really impressed. He has the chance to prove me wrong. A playoff birth will be enough for me.
