    So basically, you want people to stop because you don't like it?

    Wow... just... wow....

    Sweet merciful crap. Is this now the place to air grievances with our fellow posters, like when they kill millions of innocent electrons just to tell the world that they don't like how people sign their posts?

    It is now, apparently.

    What was your name again? I missed it all three opportunities I had to see it. :)

    A great many message boards don't let you do it. It's silly. It's stupid. It's pointless. Your name is right there. It's redundant. Yes, I want it stopped because I don't like it. I also want people to go when the light turns green because I don't like it when they just sit there. I want the maintenance guys to stop working outside my house early in the morning because I don't like the noise. Do you understand the concept of being annoyed with something and voicing that opinion?

    I don't expect it to change. You all are too fricking set in your ways.

    This isn't USENET and it's not 1994 anymore. We know who the ******** you are already.

    Re: Chicago Attendance Disaster Deepens

    Columbus is a frustrated market. Greg Andrulis is killing the team, which couldn't score in Amsterdam with $1000. The fans want him on the first bus out of town, and HSG is doing nothing about that. Even the casual fans who only go once or twice a year are starting to talk about Andrulis being a detriment. It's not just the Internet hotheads on bigsoccer.com, like some in the Crew FO want people to believe.

    The message that gets sent is: If HSG doesn't care about this team, why should anyone else?

    Fire Andrulis and attendance will bounce back.

    Don't waste your time JasonC, the idiot has been told this several times and he's been shown attendace data that shows once the Crew fix the problems wrong with the team there is a precedent for attendace to rebound. He chooses to ignore it because ignoring the facts fits his chicken little theory.

    Though you gotta admit, Usenet was a lot cooler back in 1994. You know, when people actually knew what the hell smileys were for.

    After all I did in the name of killing it.

    Well not so much, but I'd assumed it was effective.

    I'm stunned you haven't.

    Just the facts though.

    This is nothing to be concern about. Just wait until you get your very own stadium. Not only attendance will go up but moral as well. Just look LA. Our team now sucks and people still are flocking to the stadium. Unless you get a crapy stadium where no one wanst to be in. In LA, I think, that a lot people go to the game because visiting HDC is just half the fun. And if you add top-notch Barras like LARS. No need to say more!

    Just give it time.

    You and your facts have no place here. Look again to see who started the thread.
