Seattle Sounders are ready to play a first game in Major league soccer. The Sounders being two months before the first game have fans waiting at the gate with tickets exceeding more than Major League Soccer’s average selling during the season last year.

Joe Roth, filmmaker, team co-owner actor Drew Carey, Paul Allen co founder of Microsoft corp. and Disney as team sponsor. With all this, the team was able to hire on Sigi Schmid, Freddie Ljungberg from England. NFL Seahawks has a partnership with the Sounders.

The Sounders make it the 15th newest team to come to the Major League Soccer League in the United State.

Seattle Sounders has a contract with Microsoft to sponsor free TV games all year. This has put a strain on the seattle-sounders with sharing the airwaves.
