There are no official holidays associated with Major League Soccer or the Portland Timbers currently, but if I would have to speculate any, the release of the current MLS schedule is often viewed by many as a key date. Supporters get an opportunity to learn about which teams will be traveling to the Rose City, but also eagerly make travel plans to follow their team on the road and sing for them in person. For many, this announcement also gives them knowledge as when they can watch their favorite side on national TV, and the Timbers were a very popular choice for MLS' national broadcast partners at ESPN and Fox Sports.
