They've only made the playoffs five times in 18 seasons. The reality is they've been poorly run for most of their existence.
Yeah, I'm sorry that you have to cheer for them. That 5-6 run was amazing (and as a Sounders fan I loved the rivalry we built in those years), and it makes the fall afterward even harder. Bad leadership can ruin everything in a sports team.

I was thinking the other day, "who was the best MLS player of all time?" when it comes to skill + production + longevity? Giovinco and Vela both came to mind, among others. Sebastian Giovinco was so amazing.
