    Now... Do you see what happens to the mind when you partake in reading "It's" posts? :p

    Not the "It" I think of when I read its posts.

    So, I just saw a tweet (retweeted by Jeff Krause) that said that Andrew Hauptman was the first owner to make a special trip out to see the Academy team in a tournament in 2010 (some RSL fan was crowing about their owner doing that for the GenAdidas Cup).

    In other notes, Iron, you are getting dangerously close to my ignore list. You've veered from making valid defenses of Andrew, and are into troll territory.

    If everybody puts him on ignore he will go away, at least we wouldn't see any of his posts (just as good as gone).

    The tweet doesn't mention Andrew visiting a tournament. Just a "trip out".

    Like an LSD trip out? Those Californians party pretty hard.

    Dandrew Lobring81 needs to watch this so that maybe they can have some appreciation for where the hell they are trying to do business and the people that they are trying to do business with.
    Dude gives a shout-out to the Fire in the beginning. Geoffrey Baer *is* Mr. Chicago.

    From my recollections, "the trip" to the Academy game was the 2010 Championship match which was played in Andrew's backyard of Carson, California.

    Having someone drive him down the 405 was probably the least he could do that night!

    I wonder what would happen if a few hundred fans sent The Don a petition asking the league to fire Andy as an owner and take over the team until a real owner can be found.

    The representative from Chicago moves to add more pork to the barrel:

    Garber would take a look at all of the wonderful initiatives the team has pursued under Andrew and place the petition in the circular file.

    Well, that would happen only IF and after the league Vergara'd Dear Leader and found an ownership group that resembled, say, OnGoal LLC that actually had a vision and a plan for their team as a soccer team rather than just letting the rest of the league build up the value of his financial asset for him while he contributes nothing.

    I just wonder what the league's response would be, especially if that several hundred fans was made up mostly of the remaining STHs.

    This is the problem with ignoring me, either mentally or using the software. Ratdog is curious about something, he has this forum's preeminent expert on the Fire and MLS give him the answer (circular file) but he remains in the dark. Ratdog has also been informed of the team's plan and Andrew's contributions to the Fire but the ignorance only grows. It's sad, really.

    Sorry, been off the forum for a few days, and this thread isn't on the first page.

    Do we have a new owner yet?
