While we knew it was going to happen, the official Chance Myers is a Portland Timber news finally dropped on Monday. Chance has always been a class act. Coming off the training field smiling with a positive attitude, always happily stopping to sign autographs for fans and posing for photos.
Chance’s easy going, laid back attitude off the field did not stop him from working hard and overcoming several injuries to not only come back and play, but get better each time.
Looking so young

Myers was the Humanitarian of the Year for Sporting KC in 2016 and was constantly involved in the community. It seemed whenever Sporting Kansas City needed a player to interact with kids, Chance was the first one to volunteer.
Chance has always been good on the field but was even better off of it. Kansas City lost a good person and Portland gained a good role model.
You will be missed Chance. On behalf of myself, my family and The Blue Testament, we wish you all the best in Portland. (Except when “we” play you and then we hope to torch you for a few goals.)
Oh, and make sure to kick Seattle’s rear as often as possible for everyone.
