    So the Sons of Ben supporters club in Philly took on the Front Office and staff for a charity event they called the River Cup. Yes, the GM/Prez Sakiewicz, head coach Peter Nowak and others in the staff took on the fans in a game played in their PPL Park stadium. And all the money raised for the even went to charity.

    Do you think that could work for RSL? Sounds like fun.

    I'd prefer our RSL supporters v cRapid supporters game get moved to the RioT (and the Dick), personally.

    But this would be an interesting idea given the drastic differences in types of people within our supporter groups

    For years I've been suggesting a media vs. front office game, and you know what? Those candy-asses have refused to play us! If the FO won't take on a bunch of pot-bellied, window-licking reporters, no way they'll cross blades with a the supporter's groups, who I have no doubt are better at soccer than the media (seriously).

    Maybe we cut off the FO and have a media vs. supporter's groups game. Oh wait, that's essentially what the Gravy Cup (on Thanksgiving Day) is.

    Yes but is the Gravy Cup at Rio? Now that would be cool.

    No, but neither would a match involving any combination of the FO, SG's, and media. That idea was struck down before I even completed the sentence.

    Well that was the point of me bringing this up. Philly did it ghetto Chester. Surely, RSL can pull something off in Sandy.
