End of the Levesque era

After 10 professional seasons, Roger Levesque announced his retirement, bringing an end to the celebrated tale of a Sounders cult hero.

Roger Levesque is one of the most boisterous, uplifting personalities anyone could ever meet.

But when he was asked this week to reflect on what the Sounders mean to him, his voice softens. His ( Read more... )

It's weird seeing him leave after watching him for so many years. I honestly can't put it properly into words right now. His attitude, etc. will be missed! ;____;

I really really really wish I could watch the Chelsea match... :(

I really wish Keller had succeeded in pantsing him WHO WILL FILL THE PERSONALITY GAP HE IS LEAVING ;-; He's just always been there, always willing to play wherever the team needed him to be. I'm glad he was able to be one of the faces of the Sounders.

I just realized this makes Zach Scott the last guy to have been on the USL team too :,,(

hey at least if Roger's going to UW business school, I might be able to stalk him every now and then

ikr? and Evans is the only properly ridiculous one left and I don't think there was ever more of a sport on the team. WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN? ;____;

I didn't think of it. It will be the end of an era when that happens.....

That is really cool that he is doing something like that. It will have to feel weird for the first few weeks, imo....not Hermoine at Brown level, but still

It will be so weird. It's like the old guard are all hanging up their boots now. :'(

Yeah, I'm having a hard time imaging him walking around in a suit with a briefcase and coffee mug...I really hope he doesn't go all the way and shave. That would be too far.

I knew it had to happen sometime, doesn't make it any easier. I keep thinking: "but the team is so young." Then I realize that it has been 4 years......

That is so weird to me. I hope not! It is so weird when he does, I can't imagine it happening for very long. :(
