How come there are no RSL fans in this?

After a month-long search, Fox Soccer Channel has selected two lucky Major League Soccer fans to be the featured play-by-play commentators for FSC FanZone, premiering nationally on Monday, October 10 at 11 p.m. ET.

Because MLS and FSC do not have to cater to us with silly gimmicks and ego stroking, to get us to watch or come out to the stadium.
They already know we have the best, most knowlegable fans in the country so why would they let us rub everyone's noses in it.
We know we are the best and now we just have a couple more fan groups to make fun of on a regular basis...

Thanks FSC for showing RSL fans that they are the best...

Theres a good "glass-half full" reply.

Good one Deuce.

That and the fact that none of us have a burning desire to humiliate ourselves before a national TV audience... 🙂

I thought about it, I love that show for the EPL.

Watch it tonight and give positive feedback to the network if you like it. If FSC knows that people like it, this program will possibly get broader coverage. I know that they had submissions from fans of every MLS team, including from the cadre of RSL supporters.

I think the choice they made for this first edition will be perfect, especially from the Fire's side.

Deuce is right. We don't need to be bribed. We are also offended by it. Which is why I haven't eaten at KFC ever since they started their bribe buckets.
Chicken for cheering. Makes me sick.

Yes, but keep in mind that KFC is one reason why Real is doing better than expected financially this year.

Hey man, don't rain on my indignation parade.

The question was, "How come there are no RSL fans in this?"

The answer, "Because the only articulate one, Scholesy, is already calling the games." You know you're a homer Scholesy!!! 🙂

(P.S. If you haven't caught Hatch and Scholes on 1280 AM yet, you're missing out.)
