    Apparently Precourt is calling the Austin Mayor out and celebrating some announcement for your family's native city on the 15th. You are going correct?!? Your new team is Austin FC. Haha!


    OK, where's the lie though?

    This. They are NIMBY's.

    For those of you who don't know the term, it stands for "not in my backyard"

    General description: average age 65, retired, grows organic beets in their overgrown backyard they refuse to cut because the city wont recognize a busted waterline in their backyard as a natural spring.

    As much as I want to see PSV fail (or at least sell to local owners), anything that endangers the music fests should be DOA in Austin. They are such a part of the cultural identity.

    1. It might be a bit tough for me to go, since you know... /points at location

    2. I got a team already, and I've had that team for 23 years.

    3. Eat shit.

    Don't forget "bitches that his property taxes went up because someone bought the shotgun shack down the street with cars on cinder blocks in the front yard and renovated it."

    My buddies and I from Houston love our road trips to Austin. Here is us versus the old Aztex in 2007 taking over their home ground.

    In case you were planning to be an Austin fan:

    "Thank you, Anthony Precourt, not just for bringing MLS to Austin, but for *the way* you brought MLS to Austin." - Steve Adler, Mayor

    Lets make sure these shitheads are the villains of MLS forever and ever.
