Amusing comeback. Did the guy on the HDC loudspeaker tell you to say that, or does he just tell you when to cheer?

Thanks, AEG Rent Collectors
it's not *like* watching a retard, it *is* watching a retard, doesn't have to be einstein they're arguing with. reminds me of a favorite bill hicks line - the average chivas fans look like a dog that's been shown a card trick.
LOL, we are only about 5,000 away from you guys. And you have been in the league for how long, with how many championships and with which star player or players? And your attendance dropped 21.5% Sorry, but this post made us feel very good. Thanks!!!!!
Its the only thing to look forward to after we serve you with a double can of whoopass this weekend and next weekend.
Dont hate the playa, hate the game. Besides, you are guys/gals are the ones that keep throwing this attendance crap at us. We dont care about attendance numbers but it sures seems to be your rally cry.
yeah, "only" 5,000, that wouldn't sound bad if it were the rose bowl and you were talking a difference of 5%, but it's a 21% differential we'd have to drop off another 25% before we approached your pathetic numbers, and let's not forget we boost your attendance you take out our attendance boosting numbers and you drop to 13,555 just above new york. good job! your lame organization has tried being mexican, tried being an mls team and even tried being good and you still can't do anything but drop attendance. but you're right attendance doesn't mean much... 10-3-5 28-17

Chivas USA vs LA Galaxy 2009 ZERO goals for Chivas in 270 minutes....soon to be 450 scoreless minutes!
Gotta love this. Watch out for people who wear Chivas USA jerseys cause it looks like they're thieves :0 http://www.ktla.com/news/landing/ktla-staples-thefts,0,194507.story
Gee, if your argument is based that your sister can up with a better saying. Then checkmate. I win. Come on, you can do better.
Oh, I can find many pics of half empty galaxy's 2009 home games and prove what? that your team with its rich history, star players and championships cannot average more than 21,000 fans a game. Just being real.
You say we keep rubbing attendance figures in your face yet still keep bringing it up. The reality is that I've seen $hitvas games on tv and been to Galaxy games and even on a "bad" day we still have more people sitting in the stadium. It was very embarrassing to see that you guys cant even fill the General Admission seats on your last day for a "playoff" bound team
It's not real though is it? It's actually bollocks. Y'see, last season our attendances were a little exaggerated by a certain English guy's first full season. Due to the well storied saga of his less-than-stellar performances last year, alongside the Galaxy's collective last-placed record and a faltering economy and said blokes unwelcome prolonged stay in Italy, we did, as you astutely pointed out, take a hit in attendance. 21% as you again cleverly quoted. Now think about it: Chivas had the best record in the west last season. They've had a decent run this season. Our attendance DROPPED by around 4-5k and yet, despite all this, we STILL averaged 5k more fans than you. I know which scenario I'd prefer my team to be in.
Okay Cali, we will take them off of your hands. We will put them in Phoenix and change their name to 'Como Chingas You Ese'.
any idiot can make a statement and then weasel out with a grade school excuse. post some pics of league games with a half empty stadium or stfu.
you are right we need to keep it real...lets do that HDC seats 27,000 so half full would be 13,500 The fact is you can't find one single MLS game this year when Galaxy attendance was that low. Ignoring the 27,000 at the Milan game and 93,137 at the Barcelona game... Lets concentrate on the 15 MLS home games both teams played Galaxy 03/22 - Sunday D.C.

After we win the MLS cup this year our number would go up and your will go down cus’ Beckhamon is going to Italy and Donovan..aaaa he will try again to get into a team in Europe U Know
I was just waiting for one of you guys to come up with this “famous sentence” o and you forgot to add (sitting and text massaging) that is the big difference, Chivas USA fans do support the team half of the gals just come cus’ they want to take a picture of Beckahamon-- we only wantt people that support you guys can keep the ones that just come to the games ans just sit and text
i hope english is your second language. seriously chivas fans you've got nothing: you don't have the raw attendance figures, you don't have more "real" supporters, you don't have the record against us, you haven't accomplished anything in the league. all you have is hope; hope that you can win the series and finally have a legitimate milestone to hold over us. win the play-off series and you can talk shit, until then all your posturing rings as hollow as a goat piñata.
Beckham's first home MLS game in 2009 was 15th August, the attendance March through July without him (and the fans he might bring) was still higher than Chivas.
