With all these rumors surrounding Thierry Henry, it got me thinking.

Along with a guy like Drew Carey , Microsoft Co-Founder Paul Allen and a committed business man who’s guided The Seattle Sounders to Championship status of the USL A-League in Adrian Hanauer, Hollywood Producer Joe Roth might just have enough clout to bring a superstar to the land of Starbucks.

They’ve chosen the right name, showing respect to the past while looking ahead to the future. They’ve got the local golden boy as Technical Director already in Chris Henderson, who’s played for the United States (79 times) and MLS (250+ games) AND they have the fan base already in The Emerald City Supporters.

And what an amazing fan base it is.

They just might have the ability to get Thierry Henry. Maybe.
