[nas] RM vs. DC, CWT and the euro-snob

I disagree.  Remember the sighs of bliss had by all the sundry "euro-snobs"

and other ex-pat elitists on the meaningless Champion's World Tour a few years ago????? 

They came out and sold out our nfl stadiums and it sickened me.

 

They are akin to the lowly cicada....who remains dormant underground for 17 years or

so, then one summer, they crawl out of the ground, make a lot of noise for

a few weeks, shed their skins and disappears again. 

Good riddance!!!!!!

I wrote a couple of weeks ago that if they got 40K I would be surprised.

 

Well, if I could I would eat that post.

 

And NO, I am sure there is no other city in the US that would sellout that fast for a game featuring a well known foreign team and a MLS squad. On the other hand DC United is the gold standard when it comes to professional soccer in the US so that might have helped some. Will Barcelona and the MetroStars(I know its Red Bulls but...) get 66K for their game this weekend?
