The team had originally leaked that the possible names would be
FC Seattle
Seattle Alliance
Seattle Republic
This caused on outcry, as it should. One name which is decent and two that suck. The lack of Sounders even as an option was disappointing. The Sounders were the club back in the NASL days, as well as the A-League/USL team. The Sounders have been and are soccer in Seattle.
MLSinSeattle though changed their mind.
MLS SEATTLE
They now offer the write in option. So it will take some extra effort, but the name can be, and should be the Seattle Sounders.

Its just that simple, and you too can help create a team where the voice of the fan matters. A team where Joe Roth and Paul Allen have to listen to people who make less than 40k a year.
