Today will mark the first time Captain Jack Jewsbury returns to Kansas City to play his former team. As somebody who has played so well for the Timbers this season this has to be a bitter sweet reunion for Sporting Kansas City fans. That said, everything has changed since Jewsbury was playing for Kansas City. The name of the team is no longer the Kansas City Wizards.
