Oh oh, Grant Hill is NOT going to be happy with you. "He told me he couldn’t tell me where he got the Cosmos jersey or else everyone else will have them and then he’d have to start wearing cricket shirts."
If we see other athletes wearing current MLS jerseys (and by MLS I mean Adu) it could result in some increased sales and if you believe in trickle down economics, it would be more money for the league. But if you think it means players will go to the games, that is asking a little much.
How old is Greg Lalas? This quote may have have dated him: "The fact that Cult frontman Ian Astbury is a massive soccer fan won’t help expand the TV contract." I mean, the Cult was a big band back in 1987. Hey Greg! I think Tom Jones is also a big soccer fan , as well.
Would have been more timely had he described him as current Doors frontman. Or pseudo-Doors frontman, as it's just Krieger and Manzarek. No Densmore. Or Stewart Copeland, who had been playing with them last year for a bit. And Dave Grohl lives in suburban Virginia now, not Seattle. Although I'm a big fan of inviting celebrities to matches on principle. Okay, carry on. Later, COZ
Old enough to know better regarding his **** rock fixation (naughty word intentionally censored but I refuse to call the music by any other name). Seriously, can he please write an article where he doesn't reference the biggest scourge ever to afflict rock and roll music (Huey Lewis excepted)?
Greg Lalas is my new hero. This should be required reading on Bigsoccer. All of you who think there's some voodoo to this or a quick fix that's going to make MLS "bigtime" overnight need a reality check.
