Do you love RSL more than the Utah Jazz?
I was and am a big Utah Jazz fan, but something interesting happened along the way...RSL came to town and all of a sudden I discovered that soccer has more action and excitement than basketball. Any basketball fan will admit that the last moments of a close basketball game are nothing but free-throws. BORING! I'd rather have a nil-nil tie in a soccer game than a triple overtime in basketball.

And the athletisism of soccer players in unmatched. There is running in both basketball and soccer, but the soccer field is much larger and there are no time outs or multiple substitutions in soccer. I have yet to see a fat soccer player, oh, nevermind there is Tony Meola. Let me rephrase that, I have yet to see a fat soccer player that plays any position other than goal keeper.

Ticket prices for RSL are much more reasonable than tickets for the Utah Jazz. For the same price I would pay for nosebleed seats at the Delta Center, I can sit midfield and front row at an RSL game.

I predict that once RSL gets to a championship game that their popularity will outweigh that of the Utah Jazz. In fact, they're already more popular with me than the Jazz are.

What, no choice for the Blaze? :torch: I mean, they've got Morgan Scalley!(I'm sure I spelled that wrong. Sue me.)

I haven't seen the Blaze play yet, so I'll have to reserve judgement on them until it happens. Season tix are pretty reasonable though. $80 for a season in the cheap seats ain't too bad.

Conformity is nice, ain't it? 🙂

I wonder how this poll would fare in a Utah Jazz forum. I suspect I'd get opposite results.

Lol, yeah... Probably... But that's ok, because us soccer fans are cooler than all those crazy basketball fans.
