I know not many here are soccer/FC Dallas fans, but many are fans of other Dallas sports. Well, we've got another Dallas Metroplex team playing for the championship!

The Rangers couldn't quite bring a championship to North Texas (next year, hopefully), but I recommend we all watch next Sunday's game.

Tonight's was a real treat to watch. We beat the LA Galaxy 3 - 0 to advance. A real drubbing. The bar I was at was crazy wild.

Good times!

Hey, EVERY single DFW sports team has risen to the top, with great expectations, only to fall.

The way I see it, these guys and TCU is all we have (sad thing about TCU is, even if they go undefeated, they may be voted out of a BCS game, let alone the NC).

I'm not a big soccer fan. Never have been. But dammit, I'll take this if they win it.

Yeah, TCU isn't going to the big game unless two of the top four lose. I fear Boise is going to jump TCU in the BCS as their remaining schedule will be considered stronger.

We need some upsets these last couple of weeks!


As for FC Dallas, I honestly didn't even know it was soccer season. That is how little I pay attention to the sport. Nevertheless, I always support metroplex teams and hope they destroy whoever they are playing this next week. And who knows, maybe I'll watch just this one game.

Well maybe FCD can break the cycle and be the first DFW winner in the 21st Century. I know I'm ready for us to win something.

As Dallas Area sports fan, I think it would be cool to have as many fellow Dallas sports fans watching this game as we can. Not everyone will be converted to be soccer fans, but hey, maybe a win could do some wonders.

JJ and Sloop, if you do watch, make sure to go to a bar/viewing party with lots of fans - the atmosphere really is amazing (when we're winning )

Edit: And go Horned Frogs. Upsets for other teams, please.

Oh, and

I'll take it too, something to cheer about. Even after the Cowboys beat the Giants last night, I really couldn't even get excited about that win, made me even more disappointed-that they were able to win that game and not the others. Oh well I digress, make room on the bandwagon.

Jump on it....... I've been on it.
Might not get to catch many games but I still keep up w/ them.

There are some GREAT guys on FC Dallas. They do a lot and their character is something other sports players should pay attention to. They have CLASS!

GO FC DALLAS!!!!!

I'll still be at every game next year though. They played hard, just got some spectacularly unlucky breaks.

And maybe a few more people will want to come out to games next year too.
