FOR THE LOVE OF GOD CLARK!

An open letter to Clark Hunt…

You dont know me from adam. I am just another one of those nameless pundant/fans that used to flock to your stadium to watch the Hoops…FCD..or whatever they are called these days. The last two games have been great. We have won. We have played soccer the way that the bus driver wants to see. PLEASE TAKE ADVANTAGE OF IT!

I have told Hitch before all we have to do is win. WE ARE DOING IT NOW! CAPITALIZE! Build your advertising around Jeff. For the love of God he just became the 3rd leader scorer in MLS history. I would be putting that in every ad possible. You have been given something to rally fans behind. It is really getting sad looking on TV and seeing a less than 1/2 full stadium. Now is the time to spend some money with this tide of a two game win streak behind us.

Now on to something much more embarrassing. I am not a hordicultural expert but I know a bad pitch when I see one. Clark we are supposed to be a “Major” league team. Why does the Dr. Pink field look better than the pitch in the main stadium? I know that field has had a new pitch within the last two years. I know that you make money from having tournaments and other events on those fields. But Clark how does it look when we are on regional and sometimes national tv and the ball looks like it just hit a sand pit on the back 9. Tonight about 1/2 way through the second half a ball played by Kai Kimoura from Houston got sucked into a divot in the pitch that just made the ball stop cause there was no pitch to stop it. Please it is embarrassing that the team seems to be showing the promise that we all hoped that they had while doing it on a pitch that is worse than some of the rec fields that I have seen.

Please help us. We the fans that have left the fold want to come back. But we want you to show us that you care about the team as much as we do. I know that you love the game. I know that there have been rumors of you putting a bid in for West Ham. Please as the great Charles Emmerson Winchester the Third has stated many times do one thing….do it very well….and then move on. Please take advise when you are considering adding teams…..
