We're getting our money back

In case you hadn't heard, the Sounder Front Office has decided to give Sounders fans their money back in response to this weekends terrible game. All season ticket holders will have one game paid for next year if they renew. GM Adrian Hanauer said, "That wasn't Sounders soccer and it was quite frankly embarrassing, humiliating and the fans don't deserve that," adding "As the owners of the club we reserve the right to do whatever we think we need to do to treat our fans the way they've treated us."

I read a few comments on the team's message board and they sound very cynical, assuming that ticket prices will just be raised to make up for it. Others wonder how if it is fair for non-season ticket holders. I, for one, will not be cynical and take it as a genuine gesture from the front office. The team sucked. Hanauer and Roth sound embarrassed. Let's take it as face value and be happy with who we have running the show. It could be a lot worse.
