FC Dallas and Pizza Hut Park

What is with the soccer fans in Dallas?

Pizza Hut Park in Dallas seems to always be empty when you watch games on TV. Last night was no exception. The game between FC Dallas and Seattle Sounders looked more like a scrimmage than a league match. There was nobody in the stands.

(I wish John Harkes would just shut up. He spends 90 minutes criticizing everything. I really want to go to a single announcer like Tobey Charles during the good ole days of Soccer Made in Germany).

Yet, last summer, Soccer opened up the new Cowboys stadium and they filled the place up with what? 80k of people? Yet, they can not get 15k-20k to find their way to Frisco on a beautiful evening to watch professional soccer.

The Dallas market hosts one of the biggest youth tournaments in the world each year. They have a lot of soccer being played.

The drive is no excuse. I used to drive from New Hampshire down to Foxboro. Shame on you Dallas Soccer people – support your team!!
