Seattle Sounders Fans Rule- But what about the MLS?

We Seattle Sounders fans tend to be a little over the top when it comes to talking about how great not only our team is, but how great we are. We sing, we cheer, we all wear scarves, we stand the entire match, and sometimes we dress up like gorillas. We gloat about the envy other cities and their teams must feel for our tremendous fan-dome. And, rightly so, as our season tickets sold out quickly and every home game has been sold out.

Watching the game against the Fire the other day on the high-def tv, I saw things from a little different perspective, however. The stadium looked empty. n fact, from a certain vantage point, there seemed to be more people in the band than fans in the stadium. If these other cities don't get up to par, I don't think it bodes well for the future of the MLS. The still "undefeated" Fire have averaged a measly 10,900 over their last few games. Oh, excuse me 10,901. Some people are speculating that the Chicago-ites "don't know where Toyota Park (their home stadium) is". What up with that Chicago? (If Obama is really promoting the World Cup, I think he should also be pushing for the MLS! He's gone to at least one basketball game as president, why not a MLS game? I Obama, just like many other people, but I'm just saying...)

Look at him here at the Wizards Game- he's drinking a beer, hanging out, relaxing....for the love of God, will someone PLEASE give him a free ticket to an MLS game?
