Jim:

What is this shameless behaviour all about?

You are uncapable of anything except feeding socceraddicts with the most opportune information...

The Republic of Texas has only positive "points" for you.

Let's hope your college professors feel the same way...

Hapy Easter to you and to all BigSoccer staff and moderators...

Gabriel Cuomo, Brother of Weezer's Lead Singer Signs with Rhinos--Rochester D&C (http://www.democratandchronicle.com/sports/rhinos/0410PH3SP6R_sports.shtml)

Maybe Weezer would do entertainment at an MLS game? Or maybe MLS could give him some MLS jersey's to wear in his videos or concerts?

6,738 at the MLS exhibition in Edmond, Oklahoma. The weather was horrible. Very cold, windy and rainy. A good crowd in those conditions. 2500 less than last year's exhibition, but about the same number as Dallas drew last weekend for their home opener in nice weather.

OUCH! That hurt.

I think Burn GM Greg Elliott said it best:
"We've done everything in the last six months but stun-gun our fans. The hardcore die-hards are with us, but it's the discretionary fan, the casual fan, that will be the hardest to win back."

"It's about what we expected coming off a catastrophic season where we darn near fell off the radar screen," he said. "It's going to take time to prove we're a team worth watching again. It might take several matches before people realize the type of team we've assembled and we're getting results and displaying a product they can be proud of."
