Important note in the Daily Herald article is that fire season ticket holders will be able to buy manchester united-bayern munich tickets.
Which would kick ass if I didn't hate both clubs. Ah, who am I kidding? I'm such a damn lemming I know I'll end up going anyway.
Personally, I can't justify spending any money to go to a match where I'd probably wind up cheering for the referee.
Your self-restraint is admirable, sir. Verily, you are an inspiration. I too, have no desire to give money to the already ludicrously wealthy clubs. As there will likely be no shortage of Eurosnobs who'd never be caught dead at a mere MLS game panting for tix to this one, I think I'll take my $$$ and just buy a Fire jersey or something. Or I'll keep telling myself that, at least.
The Fire's first game against KC is going to be broadcast on FoxSportsNet at 10:30 p.m.?! WTF? Is there a Bulls or Hawks game or some other winning Chicago team on that must be broadcast? BTW, on a related note, was watching Channel 32 Fox newscast last night and Cory the sports guy had a bit from the Fire's press night and interviewed DMB, and afterward Robin Robinson said the Fire "are the most fun team to watch in Chicago." Channel 5 also had an interview w/ Henry Ring about having to fill Zach's shoes.
