Which SSS will hold 50k in attendance?


Maybe I should rephrase. I wasn't as much worried about playing in a non-SSS as I was with playing in a baseball stadium. The sight-lines are terrible, it looks bad on TV, and the field is typically pretty narrow.


Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with StL getting it...I have no doubt it will be a sellout and I'll probably be there. I just think they should wait until the new stadium gets built.

Oh, yeah, well its hard to argue with any of this and I agree completely.

If St Louis wants to figure in the national soccer scene like it once did it needs to invest in an MLS franchise and a top notch facility. I kind of get tired of the old timers around the area that lean on the past history of soccer here thinking its a "right". Its not. Times have changed and luckily there is a group of very forward thinking business leaders here trying to bring St Louis back into the conversation. Better late then never right?

I'm just really excited. I cant wait to go to the match.
