Jaqua and Graham chat with fans. Greg Roth / NSS
Defender James Riley and real estate consultant Karen Balkin put on another cocktail soiree a day after Seattle's second loss of the season, this time at The Baltic Room in Seattle.
This was another opportunity for the fans and Emerald City Supporters members to hang out, chat, take photos and let loose on the dance floor with some of their favorite Sounders players.
To continue...
In attendance were Nate Jaqua, Sebastien Le Toux, Taylor Graham and Brad Evans.
Notes
Le Toux said he was philosophical regarding the loss but not dwelling on it. He said he has shifted his focus forward to this weekend's match with the San Jose Earthquakes, and he didn't feel that the Sounders were beaten but more or less beat themselves.
Even in defeat, Le Toux said he remains positive and is confident the team will make the proper adjustments and be prepared to play against their old rivals from the defunct North American Soccer League.
As always, Taylor Graham was extremely gracious and appreciated the opportunity to interact with the fans. He said he is training at 100 percent and is working on getting match fit.
