Got your attention didn't I? Everyone loves numbers.. so let's start predicting the attendance for the Final. Not paid vs unpaid vs boy scout vs girl scout... butts in the seats only: 9,357 is my vote INDOOR SOCCER "CELEBRATIES" ON HAND: Angelina Jolie will not be attending the 5 TIME WORLD CHAMPION BALTIMORE BLAST victory celebration this year, as she is adopting her 14th child from Ethiopa. Some notable indoor soccer "celebrities" that you think will be on hand: My List: Adato Neto, Lucio Gonzaga, Kevin Sloan, Omid Namazi, Mike Stankovic, Lee T. AND THE HONORABLE EDWIN F HALE
I guess the next prediction will be, how long before the XSL and maybe even some PASL-Pro MARKETS approach NISL Commissioner Mr. Grimaldi about membership. This season has been an over the top smash success. And it all comes together tomorrrow at the Bank Vault. GO BLAST!!!
Then why did Ed Hale just criticize 60% of the teams in the NISL for drawing very, very small crowds? He said this in The Sun: "The other league (XSL) had very, very small attendance and it hasn't worked as far as I'm concerned," Hale said. If 3,000-4,000 a game is very, very small then Monterrey, and especially Rockford and really, really especially Massachusetts has very, very, VERY small attendance.
hat capt good point , also the nisl did not get a tv contract because of the short time from they had from when the leage started & untill the time they started to play
honestly - there are variety of opinions in these forums and first it was soccerman who was way out in left field with his comments Now - it is the cardshopmd guy who I have to decipher what he typed there have been some healthy opinions on both sides of the fence and some folks sitting on the fence or those of us who want the fence removed but these 2 guys - holy moly - kind of a waste of time reading & responding to them
