Just curious if anyone is a fan of the tournament. I feel in love with it as a Sounders fan when they made the semi-finals two years in a row. My first ever game was a FC Dallas match where we lost in extra time. Just curious if anyone else here follows the tournament. I have two teams a PDL team by the name of Kitsap S.C. and of course the 2 time defending champions Seattle Sounders. I'm hoping to have a KSC at Seattle game it would be great to be an away fan at Qwest or we can always knock out the Timbers in the third round.
A fan of the tournament? yeah I guess you could say I am. I'm not a huge fan of the format of the tournament though. I'd like to see a true knockout format with random draws every round. At the very least I'd like to see the end of the MLS qualification rounds. Unfortunately the logistics are probably too complicated for this.
I think 4th round and on should be drawn. The first 2 are in fact drawn already just within regional pools but you wouldn't want San Fransisco Bay having to go to New York I think up too Washington was far enough. I still don't understand why the MLS doesn't have all 16 teams in I mean this qualifying tourney adds games and the top flight shouldn't have to qualify for the tournament proper anyway.
