...who would it be? This was inspired by this thread in the Chivas USA forum, who was voted out first in LA
i'd have to go with the sixers ... even though that team has produced some sports legends in this city (Dr J, mo cheeks, charles barkley, AI), i absolutely despise basketball.
I don't much care for ANYTHING indoors that's supposed to be played outdoors (KiXX, Wings), but arena US-football? Bye-bye, Soul!
Had to vote for the Kixx. The MISL is a mockery of the entire sport of association football. Two and three point goals? It's a disgrace.
I gave the Kixx a pass since it's basically a sport to take the kids to. I voted for the Wings. While I think box lacrosse is cool I can't stand that they play music at volume 11 while the game is on (or they did the last TV broadcast I saw several years ago). I almost gave the Soul my vote for the dumb name, stupid sport, Bon Jovi, NBC broadcasts (that crap's on network TV?), and sucky colors but some Wings season ticket holders I knew were so annoying my memory of them made me pull the Wings lever.
I got season tickets to the Soul for their first season as a gift one Christmas. It wasn't too bad to watch in the stadium. But other than that its insufferable. I took the obvious choice though.
Who has ever been to a Barage game? At least the soul are entertaining...outdoor lacrosse just sucks to watch.
I caucused with all the candidates and after a spirited debate there can be only ONE true winner. The Soul! I went to a game in their first season vs. John Elway's team as a gift with relatives as a "guys night". A bad gift for the dozen in our group even though we were in row 3 at Wachovia. My brother summed it up when he stood up at halftime and said,"I can now die a happy man..." Why? "I have always wondered what is the stupidest sport ever...and here it is and I'm seeing it live!". He got applause and knowing laughs from the guys in our section. The only thing worth our attention were the Soul pole dancers...er,um, cheerleaders that lost more and more of their uniforms each quarter.
It was tuff, but I voted for the Soul over the Kixx. If I hear one more Sponge Bob tune I now I am at a Kixx game, but the kids enjoy it. Reason for the Soul, football indoors where the score is routinely 76 - 72 is not enjoyable at all. Want to see defense, come see the SOB CASA team!
Geeze, who would get rid of the Phillies? Beer, hotbogs, and endless hope that never comes to fruition. I don't like it, I LOVE IT!!! But the Soul can go, the only people that should play "football" on a field that small should be pygmies.
Midget football would be fantastic. They could use those little plastic balls they throw out at high school games.
How the heck could anyone vote out the Phantoms? Unless you're Wilkes Barre/Scranton Penguin or Hershey Bears fan and are routinely beaten by them, I don't get it.
Pony Polo - FABULOUS!! And N-I-C-H-O could lead the Bucket Brigade (ala Zamboni = http://www.zamboni.com) to clean the field during intermissions. What could possibly be better? I'd pay the price of admission just to watch the intermissions!!
