You bring up two good points.

They see how the Revs play and assume the rest of the teams play the same way. If we could get them to watch some other games they might change their mind. We're not going to convince anyone that this is the German league, but we can show people that it's a good solid league.<br /><br />I guess it depends on what you define as noticeable. I think he could add 3 or 4 thousand a game. You can say that's not much, but given that we had a couple of games that were below 9,000 this year, it would help.<br /><br />2) A DP isn't going to solve all of our problems but at least it would show that ownership is committed to the team and they are willing to put some resources into the team. It should also help raise the play on the field even though it's just one player. They just need to do their work and make sure they're signing a guy who's going to make a positive impact.<br /><br />-AndrewBoston Ultrashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17849464209538685050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1518523007549793532.post-84948050079054476672011-06-07T09:07:27.526-04:002011-06-07T09:07:27.526-04:00I hate to be pessimistic, but:

After years of speaking with people of more "soccer loving" traditions, MLS just can't shake it's criticism as a "poor league."<br /><br />2) I'd like a DP, but this teams problems are deeper than a forward is going to come in and fix (short of a world class finisher.) I'm not suggesting MLS has such quality that an impact player wouldn't help, but ball possession and movement remains a huge problem, and if we can't fix that, the goals won't be coming.AlexSWillhttp://www.twitter.com/alexswillnoreply@blogger.com
