    With a 50% chance of rain forecasted, how many fans do you think will show up?

    I think FCNY will have difficulty on the artificial turf and I predict the Hammerheads will run out 2-0 winners. ;)

    Wilmington winning 2-1.

    Three goals in a short space of time. A nice play on the right side and the winger played it across the goal and it was finished, but then gave away possesion near the top of the box and NY punished them. A minute later Wilmington had a deep throw in and they threw it into the box, Budhni controlled, turned and scored. Nice goals

    I'm glad Budhni seems to be finding his form in Wilmington. He didn't settle well in Raleigh when he was here.

    Well, you were close. At 3-1, they still won by 2. :p

    On the USL Attendance Thread it said the attendance was 4k+. Is that true? If so, any particular reason for the bump?

    Duh... Because the Hammerheads rule! ;)

    People are excited to have their team back from hiatus and it's a strong market with little competition for the "entertainment dollar." Also, the team is very good this year.

    Sledge, the mascot, is an exceptional break dancer.

    those numbers were not unusual before they went on hiatus.

    congrats to the Hammers, glad the Battery soften up FCNY for you on Friday night ;)

    I didn't think FC Clip Art required any softening. :p

    Many folks have made a mockery of the FCNY logo, I admit I was one of the first. But in their defense, their logo is taken directly from the flag of Queens which does have historical significance. If they just didn't add the bucky ball on the bottom of the shield it might seem less clip-arty.
