Good story. San Jose and RSL are on polar ends of the same issue: A great team does not equal good attendance and good fan support. RSL proves that fans can support a team that loses constantly. San Jose proves that some fans don't give a darn, even when their team is unbeatable.

Well considering their average attendace for the last 5 home matches was near 17,000 I think SJ might have solved their attendance probs, at least temporarily.

Of course if the Quakes lose to the Gals this weekend, all their work from this year might go down the toliet.

I think the attendance numbers may be the "Last Chance to See" Syndrome!
