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.

Aside from awesome goal celebrations

I will remember how excited he was when he saw us in the magazine and now matter how busy he was, he always took the time to say hi and speak with us:

Everything about that pic is flawless tbh

Your plan sounds amazing, I was also thinking about wearing a fake mustache (and I'm pretty sure I have a pirate's eyepatch somewhere in my closet underneath all those costumes of halloweens past). Alas, I don't have a Levesque jersey, but I should add that to my list!

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

Still haven't processed this. ;__; You will be missed, Roger.

His letter to the fans on the site is amazing. And sad. And wonderful.
