Absolutely. And I made that very clear in the interview for the Columbus Dispatch article that Nobius linked to above. The team is absolutely refusing to take responsibility for it's security contractors screwing up. And it's pathetic.

Tonight? I think you mean tomorrow. Hell, at this rate we might play Houston sometime before MLS Cup.
That IS funny. They should contact a Mr. Simpson of Miami for tips about how to find people who don't exist.
Another melee: http://sports.yahoo.com/wnba/recap?gid=20080722010&prov=ap I think they just did it to try to keep up with MLS.
We can only pray that Mahorn, Laimbeer, Rodman, and Isiah Thomas never show up at Crew Stadium looking for a fight.
http://nbcsports.msnbc.com/id/25806412/ Brawl at the end of a WNBA game. See, it's not just soccer like the media tries to spin it.
Anybody (else) recognize #30 from Detroit in the background? (Aside: the photo IMO support's Mahorn's claim that he was just trying to break up the fight. It seems knocking Leslie to the floor was an accident - he clearly doesn't look like he was attacking her.) Anyway, the headline (scuffle) doesn't really seem to match up with the intensity of the incident, if what happened at Crew Stadium was a "brawl". It's not really analogous anyway - a fight between players and a fight between fans aren't the same thing.
Re: When will it stop....in Columbus? SOMETHIN HAS TO BE DONE ABOUT COLUMBUS FANS?! F! THAT! All we did was protect our ground and the families that were around the WEST HAM fans who started all this B/S! Sorry we have guts and actually stand up to being pushed around!
Re: When will it stop....in Columbus? Well...better you saying it than me or some of the others 'round here I don't think we'd have been quite so nice about it
Re: When will it stop....in Columbus? Any way we can get West Ham to schedule a friendly with the Oakland Raiders....????
don't you realize this is "bigmountainoutofamolehillsoccer.com"? Admittedly, those mobile phone videos don't show the start of the incident, why would they, there wouldn't have been phones pointed at the supporters section until their was something worth recording. But obviously something happened to cause the columbus fans to remove the hammers fans by force.
