Episode 6: Don Ruiz

Sound Stories: A Seattle Soccer Podcast

In this episode I talked with Don Ruiz, who covered the Seattle Sounders for the Tacoma News-Tribune from the expansion season until this year. Ruiz is probably the best to ever cover the club, and the News-Tribune's decision to get rid of the soccer reporter position is yet another tragedy in the changing journalism landscape. Don and I talked about how the club has changed since joining the league, his favorite players to interview, and whether or not Seattle can really call itself "Soccer City, USA."
