I am fricking stoked for this. An MLS team pulls in a major talent and name before that player is broken and worn down? A player who is a home grown, legit Natty team star? A player who is now the highest paid league player? This is a move that forces the Portlands and Vancouver's to make moves of their own. An arms race right now, with soccer as popular as it is, is pure $$$$ for the MLS.
And posters in here, who mostly seem to want the MLS to succeed, are bitching? Your boy is getting paid, your boy will play, and the fans will love it and eat it up.
And people are bitching and disappointed? Get the frick out of here.

The Everton rumors made me aroused, I have to admit.
Still, I can't really fault Dempsey for setting himself up for life and returning home. Moreover, Seattle may be the best club to play for in North America. He will love the supporters and they will love him. He will have a chance to win trophies. He wanted a chance at the CL and he got it. He succeeded for 7 years in England. He gets the opportunity to further MLS. Tottenham is about to enter transition.
All in all, it makes sense. It surprised the hell outta me, but it makes sense.
