FCD News Recap

October 22nd, 2007 . 8:46 am . By: Chamo Jones

The rivalry with Houston is about to go to eleven. Before Houston came into the scene every rival Dallas has ever had was built on the foundation of events that ocurred in the playoffs: Kansas City in the early years, Chicago, and even Colorado as of late. Some fans harbor additional feelings of hatred for LA and New York based on what happened during the playoffs.

Geography and the competitive spirit between the two cities that pre-dates MLS has made Houston-Dallas an instant rivalry. The texan rivalry has been pretty intense so far despite the one-sided results. It will never be this tame again.

Let the hype begin. The FCD FO is calling the playoff run “Mission 360″. Hopefully Morrow is looking at mission 90.
