i can't put "good year" and "previous years cup champions lose at home to Detroit FC in round of 32" in the same sentence without the word "wasn't".
Talk about bad losses! That one vs minor league Detroit was such a lame showing by the men in orange.
Glenn's full side of the story: https://www.chron.com/sports/article/glenn-davis-fired-rips-dynamo-ownership-21291486.php Not surprising, figured it probably went down like this - they clearly didn't like hearing criticism. Recall they got rid of Eddie Robinson a few years prior. Not calling him up is very very weak sauce. And he's 100% right about Tim Howard, that guy you wouldn't even know he owns a stake in the team.
There is so much to unpack after reading that article! Specifically how Glenn's firing was handled, to how it is being reported by each side and then how all of us fans are to take this thing in.
The deal with claiming an amicable mutual separation and then Glen is blasting it saying nothing amicable or mutual about it -- that is just amateur hour crap right there.
Sell incrementalism as step progress, this is why after 20 years the best years of the club were the first 5 years in a WW2-era stadium: “We are focused on getting at least 1% better with every event we have, and that’s driven by the data that we receive,” O’Neill says.
I’m gonna be honest, there’s probably a good chance that the FO thinks all Dynamo fans are stupid. And the “justification” is that “why would a smart soccer fan watch this and not the EPL or La Liga?”
Bet. What needs perspective is that our city has had various outdoor soccer teams and players to love and support. This is the deep Southern States of the USA. Thus, with our tremendous soccer market that is so diverse and soccer savvy, with an even more robust youth scene both men and women, our club needs to look back at what was and was is and what could be in our soccer crazed market. I was there in the old Astrodome for our old Hurricane players. We have this odd yet incredible back story for Southern States pro soccer. So much reason that Houston should be the pillar of MLS culture. If anything, our players and our jersey deserve our support as so many players and fans have turned up before 2006. These guys weren't the best but they were ours. To then have Ching, De Ro, Rico, Onstad and the '06 Championship guys. Sheet! Us Dynamo junkies must keep the faith! Back our new players both homegrown and signees.
