    Watch the X-League championship game to see what the Family Arena looks like with 7,000 people in it in St. Charles a sub of St. Louis.

    Just go there and watch a kick off after the first touchdown or second touchdown. Look for the 2014 championship game.

    But Kenn, Detroit went ROUGE. You can't overlook that key point!

    For what it's worth, the Memphis Storm thought about going Rouge, then instead decided to go Rogue. In fact, they went Rogues. And that lastest what, 5 games before the owners bailed?

    That sort of already happened. See the aforementioned Lancers/Knights mini-game. The mini would have at least wound up tied and gone to golden goal with the 'other system' in place, instead of the Lancers winning outright on a major fluke. But they do get to go on the road and face the Blast as a reward, who they're 0-17 lifetime against. They would have been better off losing.

    Tommy Tanner loves MPS by the way. Or perhaps he used to :x3:.

    Agreed.

    I like MPS. I think indoor soccer needs gimmicks like that to compete in the marketplace. But if a majority goes for SPS, so be it. Not the worst decision to make.

    Splitting MPS and SPS so fans are confused and stats are meaningless? That's the worst decision to make.

    Why can't we just watch the Ambush games from this year where they announced 7,000?

    All the goals were worth one point, so that's kinda like a rouge.

    Translation (according to those in the 585 area code): You HATE MPS and you're a big HATER.

    They say that in the 315 area code too. You can't separate the two either. Anybody who thinks otherwise is an
    uber HATER!

    Indoor Soccer is a gimmick itself anyway, and a gimmick always needs a gimmick.

    MPS, love it, hate it, or don't care, does offer more, you can call it excitment or outcomes, than SPS. 1-1 in SPS is 1-1, traditional and basic soccer sure. But in MPS, 1-1 could be many different combos and a team could lose a game 1-1 essentially. That's no gimmick, that's hard fact.

    Now, the debate is not gimmick, it's does MPS provide more excitement? Or does it just provide more outcomes and take away too much from traditional soccer? That's up to you, but gimmick I disagree with calling it that.

    And also, not to get to deep or anything here, but what exactly is the arguement for "it makes the game more exciting"? What excitment does it bring SPS doesn't? Besides outcomes? I've read and heard the word used a lot by the fans of MPS, and I just never actually heard what excitment it brings. For instance let's say, it's 1-1 but really 3-2 MPS: Is a team playing with a 6th attacker more exciting than say 5 on 5? Is a team playing a defensive shell with all men back against a team playing 5/6-man attacks more exciting than back-and-forth action? Is deciding a winner 1-1 more exciting than going to sudden death OT and than possibly shoot-outs?

    I wish Tommy or Sam posted, because I really like to know their definition of "excitment" when they describe it for MPS and how they feel to the above scenarios.
