Sterlinho on SoundersFC.com


I alluded to it in a previous post, but I spent Sunday in the sand on Alki Beach for the first annual Sounders FC Soccer Beach Blast presented by Super Supplements. The team I was playing for, Ginger Squidge, won the tournament. The sand was really tough to play in and it also cancelled out skill. The team we played in the final really packed it in defensively and just hustled. They weren't really soccer players, which is why I felt confident going into penalty kicks. Check out the video to see more action and an interview with me.


The girls from Doyle's were good. They ran everybody. I was glad that I didn't have to play them. I also chatted with Taylor Graham for a while and he's a really cool guy. Rookies Evan Brown and Mike Fucito were also there to present trophies to the winners.

Last Tuesday Part 2

After going to the Sounders FC Bone Marrow drive, I had to head down to Starfire to get the paperwork for my team in the Beach Blast 3v3 tournament. In a surprise to all of us, the 3 Amigos showed up to welcome us and sign autographs.

The 3 Amigos, Alonso, Montero and Hurtado.

Getting my scarf signed by the 3 Amigos.

I happened to notice that Leo Gonzalez, the Sounders new Costa Rican left back was still hanging out at Starfire.

Obviously I had the guy sign my scarf. I ended up with 12 signatures in one day, and the realization that I really need to learn Spanish.

What Sterlinho's Been Up To

Sorry I haven't posted a lot this last week. I've been running around a lot recently. Here's just a little bit of what I've been up to. There will be more to follow.
