What's ironic is that they're talking from an historical point of view. How can RSL fans be the best in MLS history when we haven't even been in existence for even a year? I'm glad we won and I do think we have the best fans, but the best in history? Does anyone else find this ironic? 😛

I think if they wanted a true historical point of view they would have also included on the list the now defunct MLS teams (see Tampa Bay and Miami). We only share a short portion of the history with MLS but IMHO it's been a damn good short history. Likely only to get better.

Exactly, we all know every other group could have done the same thing.
I guess it shows that we are the only ones that really care.

I was thinking the same thing. Do we have any volunteers?

Edit: I just sent it to Jasen Asay at the Ogden Standard Examiner. I'll let you know if he responds.

Ok here is a thought!

Knowing that the media read this forum to get a feel for how the fans feel...

Is it such a good idea to give them a scoop like this..?
Do you think that MLS will look kindly upon the fact that there polls are not "cheat-proof"?
Do you want to be labelled 'a bunch of cheats'?

How embarrassing will it be to the Loyalists if an article shows up in the paper tomorrow saying that the Loyalists cheated in online poll?

can we delete this thread without too much aggrevation or accusations of censorship?
