The confirmation at last that it was a concert. To relieve my frustration a bit, I sent the following email. He's probably too busy right now to read or respond to it, but I don't really care. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Thank you very much. You moved an important SOCCER match for an Ozzie Osbourne Concert. Dear Mr. Hitchcock, I am sooooooooooooooooo angry and upset with you at this point, after the events of this week, that I cannot express it adequately in words. And to have it finally confirmed that you moved one of the most important matches of FC Dallas' season -- from a WEEKEND to a WEEKDAY night -- because of a heavy metal concert just adds to my feelings. This is inexcusable. I'll quote you from a previous email that you sent to me: "The decision to move this game is a business decision and has nothing to do with showing a lack of respect for our/your team or our fans and season ticket holders." Yes, it might have been a "business decision," but you cannot possibly look your true soccer fan base in the face and say that soccer comes first at Pizza Hut Park. I will end with this: I support this team, through thick or thin, through winning times and through rough times, such as what they are experiencing right now. I do NOT and will not support management that makes decisions that do not put soccer first or truly support the team (i.e. after this week, take a good look in the mirror and ask yourself if this week's actions were justified or not, at this point in the season). Sincerely, P.S. it is through actions such as this -- and NOT because of the team's poor run of form -- that has me seriously reconsidering my season tickets.

Dear Mr. Hitchcock, I am sooooooooooooooooo angry and upset with you at this point, after the events of this week, that I cannot express it adequately in words. And to have it finally confirmed that you moved one of the most important matches of FC Dallas’ season — from a WEEKEND to a WEEKDAY night — because of a heavy metal concert just adds to my feelings. This is inexcusable. I’ll quote you from a previous email that you sent to me: “The decision to move this game is a business decision and has nothing to do with showing a lack of respect for our/your team or our fans and season ticket holders.” Yes, it might have been a “business decision,” but you cannot possibly look your true soccer fan base in the face and say that soccer comes first at Pizza Hut Park.

I will end with this: I support this team, through thick or thin, through winning times and through rough times, such as what they are experiencing right now. I do NOT and will not support management that makes decisions that do not put soccer first or truly support the team (i.e. after this week, take a good look in the mirror and ask yourself if this week’s actions were justified or not, at this point in the season).

Sincerely,

P.S. it is through actions such as this — and NOT because of the team’s poor run of form — that has me seriously reconsidering my season tickets.
