Wow. What a well thought out arguement. The best part of the writing is that you can't even tell if the writer likes soccer. It is just written with business sense and common sense for the good of Houston and the team. I wish every writer had half the brain this guy does.
Except for the part about how the first Quakes game in San Jose set an MLS record for attendance...um, it was the first-ever MLS game, so even one fan would have been an MLS record. Otherwise, I agree wholeheartedly with the writer's sentiments. One can only hope that AEG and the league did their homework before making this decision.
