That's a bunch of crap. We don't know who runs it, but it's nobody from the front office.

They requested an add, but I saw 160 "friends" of theirs, 160 people I've never seen at a game before.

lol @ the "bunch of crap"....I sure don't get that.
I doubt most myspace pages are official (though do you actually know that for sure?)(the Houston Dynamo page says it is), but still.....to add them as a friend doesn't mean you have to have season tickets, attend every game, and funnel money to the page creator for apparel :rolleyes: :)
Hell, I've only attended 2 games, and that was last year (I live halfway across the country, so 2 games is actually pretty good IMO), but I added them to show my support for them as an organization. What are you expecting from adding them?
But it is nice to know you have every attendee from every game cataloged in your memory ;)

Well I "show my support for them as an organization" by buying season tickets, attending every home game, making road trips to see them, telling everyone I know about them, talking to the players, etc.
