    You scream for drugs when you make a typo?

    Dude, that's a problem.

    On that note, Alabama Kush would now not only be a superior shirt sponsor, but would also be closer than Herbalife to a legal product.

    I would totally wear a Galaxy jersey that had a cannabis company as the sponsor. But if there is a way to get rid of the "a" in Herbalife and replace it with the cannabis leaf, that would be freaking awesome.

    I've altered a couple of mine by 'cutting' the left leg off the A so it looks like HERB4LIFE

    I had to buy this when I saw it too :D

    Random thought, and I don't even know of it belongs here. Does anyone think the SHC will ever go through some serious renovations. Like change the roof so the noise can be more amplified. Considering the Olympics will be here in 10 years I would expect it to be one of the venues.

    I think the SHC is excellent now. They’ve done a wonderful job improving it every year. It’s so much nicer then it was when opened. I love the built out bars, the big TV, the picnic areas, the food trucks, the tailgate areas. We have it pretty sweet right now. The only thing that consistently sucks is traffic control leaving the stadium.

    Not sure what major renovations would make sense now.

    Just need to know where to park! Normally park at Lot 3 near the exit and typically get out pretty fast with minimal wait time.

    You're right, it's improved a lot. I like the seats in the upper section. In terms of parking I think the shuttle is great. I do miss the grass section though. I hope that comes back when the Chargers leave.

    I like the Galaxy Express shuttle. It does take a while to get to and from but that's because they're taking different routes to avoid traffic. It's free to park at the stations and free to ride. Plus you can pretend you're taking the Metro where it drops you off right at the stadium if you want that experience.

    On another note: As I was commuting to work I noticed 3 Galaxy bus stop billboards along Chapman Ave. in the city of Fullerton so I guess LAG is really trying to expand their brand.

    That and the consistently changing parking lot access roulette, especially on the east side of campus. It seems to change every few weeks.

    It would be cool if they built futsal courts all over SoCal. Along with events, mini tournaments. Meet and greet with Zlatan. Take advantage that he’s here. Get some new young fans in the process. Present it as him expanding his brand as well as the Galaxy brand.

    Seconded. There is nothing better than pulling up to a gate and then having them suddenly close it for some inexplicable reason......

    The Galaxy are looking for a Director of Video Operations. I’m half-tempted to apply just to see if I can get an interview and peek behind the curtain......

    Yes this is being bumped becuase William Ackman who went after Herbalife is releasing a book. In the book he tells how Herbalife paid $100,000 for a 30 page dossier that would help herbalife management understand and react to Ackman. This was never reported.

    Ackman is described in the dossier as being “fiercely competitive,” “extremely smart,” and “aggressive and competitive in all things,” Wapner writes, quoting the report. Ackman “believes he is in the right and stubbornly, inflexibly, sticks to his positions,” Wapner adds, quoting the report.
