AND 2-As long as we get a goal. Preferably Le Toux or Zakuani. A 4-1 loss, is fine, but I don't see our defense sucking that bad. I couldn’t care less about the result W-L-D

Know what matters, and just have fun with the rest.  It'll be the first time for the Sounders to have a full Qwest experience.

How does that help us exactly? Not trying to be mean, but it sounds a lot like you guys are being selfish in wanting our Sounders to play an "entertaining" game for the fan to enjoy and not for the overall benefit of the Sounders. How does a far superior Chelsea team coming out and just dinking the ball around for 90 minutes help us? Well, it doesn't! The EPL is the best football league by far in my opinion, and Chelsea being a top 4 finish every year makes them one of the best in the world. Don't get me wrong, I'm no Chelsea fan, in fact I despise them, but I love the Sounders more. Because of this, I would like the Sounders to gain something from this friendly and the only way this will happen is if Chelsea completely dominate and dismantle the Sounders everywhere on the pitch. It won't be fun for Sounders fans to see but it will definitely benefit our beloved team in the long run! WOW!!!! really guys? a draw or a sounders win? How does that help us exactly?

I want to see how many season ticket deposits are made after this match, and after Barca - can we get half the upper deck sold for next year?  How long is the list now?  I also want Toronto and New England to win this weekend, since I'm able to ask for anything :D.

That's what's needed. I want that crowd tomorrow to get crazy. I think a high-scoring match w/ the Sounders pulling it out in the end would do the trick. (4-3?)

Even more than a win, the impact of having not one, but two recognized European clubs on our side of the ocean for friendly games (and the very cool Emerarld Spire as a gift) shows the growth of soccer in the US and the success of the Sounders as a franchise to create a situation like this. The only thing that would dull the luster of tomorrow's fun would be a huge Chelsea blowout.

If only we could do something about those damn thundersticks... I agree with your wife.  I just want to see an entertaining game.
