Are you sure FCD is off Week 2?
They are only showing home openers I believe.
We could be at Houston or Seattle, someone that “opened” at home in week 1
I’m guessing under 10k for the opening day attendance, what say you? No KC Jr and rally no one else very marketable left on the team so who will really care next year?
Or we could be at home again in week #2….
yes, they could easily have a game week 2… my bad.
buzz,
unrealated topic, but…
do you know what’s happening with the MLS convention thats going on in downtown dallas today?
I saw a lot of people wearing MLS team gear at lunch today, it was beautiful. have you heard anything about this?
sales meetings.
Buzz,
Any chance we can request that any national FCD games not be on Telefutura this coming season? Last year a huge majority were on a channel that’s not even nation wide (I don’t mind the spanish part, its the nation wide that gets me). For those of us FCD fans not in Dallas, how can we “ask” for less games on Telefutura (and more on ESPN2, FSC, HDNet, etc.)
