Sounders fans in denial over Cascadia Cup belonging to Portland

Check out the verbal acrobatics Sounders fans are going through in order to deny that Portland won the Cascadia Cup:

From Sounders fan, "Soccerafficianado" (that user name almost makes me want to change the introductory text for Dropping Timber...)

The rules to the competition are determined each year by the supporters of all three teams. There is no on-going rule that says only league matches count. The past is not an indicator of the present. The three teams are in different leagues this season and next, hence a different set of rules was needed once again. The revised article clearly states how the competition will be settled this year. Portland and Vancouver will count league matches, and Seattle will include other matches played against Portland and Seattle. The #2 reference points to an article from 2007, but it is not supporting a time-sensitive fact. It supports that the basis of the competition involves the teams Portland Timbers, Seattle Sounders, and Vancouver Whitecaps. The #3 reference is about the game that was played between Portland and Seattle on July 1. It is not about the Cascadia Cup.


Look Sounders fans, it's pretty fucking simple:
