Man.

He wins the Sounders Super Search and then plays for three weeks on the squad and is cut.  Brutal.

OLIVEIRA CUT: Sounders SuperSearch winner Vini Oliveira did not make the trip and is no longer with the Sounders, less than three weeks after winning a competiiton to attend camp. The 20-year-old from Sammamish High and Bellevue CC had played in two games (one start) for a total of 75 minutes. The Sounders held a three-city competition -- Seattle, Yakima, Spokane -- to find one player to try out for the Sounders. Oliveira won the competition on live television after the Super Bowl

Of course there is no mention of this on the Sounders site.  I ran across it on a fan site.  The only mention I see of it in the press is at the bottom of this article. (which I quoted above)
