Sounders make a kids wish come true.

Seahawks aren't the only Seattle team that goes the extra mile. Cool story.

Xander Bailey had his Make-A-Wish dream come true in a big way on Saturday — and on his birthday, no less. The 19-year-old from West Virginia has been dealing with cystic fibrosis since he was a baby while also playing soccer for most of his life.

His dream? Meet his favorite soccer player, Seattle Sounders star Clint Dempsey.

His reality? Not only did Xander meet Dempsey, but he signed a contract with the Sounders, trained with the team and even spoke with the media. The Sounders pulled out all the stops.

Very classy move by the Sounders. Doesn't matter if you like their game or not what matters is what a great thing they did for not must one fan but all their fans.
