Taking this off the soccer board....
Yes, back when the team was the Dallas Burn, they played in the Cotton Bowl. It was a pretty nice place for soccer, with a great surface an locker rooms large enough for five a side games. One year, they played at Dragon Stadium, which is like heaven for a high school football players, but terrible for a pro soccer team. HSG realized the mistake and moved back to the Cotton Bowl while the new stadium was being built.
My real objection is the plastic turf. Toronto has the SSS, but still plays on plastic. What's up with Hoser FC?
Hopefully, Houston and DC will get new stadiums.

Dragon Stadium was a disaster all around. Granted, if the team had been winning, it would have been much more tolerable, but it was the worst team in Dallas history. There was never a question that beer would not be sold in the stadium, but the school district would say one thing, then do another. First, they said we could tail gate in the parking lot, and they they changed their minds. Then we could again, if we used opaque cups. then we could not. The team said they would put in a beer garden for us, and that was all right, and then it was not. At that point, HSG got in contact with a man who owned land next to the stadium, who was kind enough to let the team clear an area for us to tailgate in.
It was a terrible year, and the team lost so many fans they moved back to the Cotton Bowl next year. Also, Fair Park wondered why they had lost millions of dollars, and made a better deal with HSG.
The problem with PHP is easily solved. Stick around after the game for awhile. Saturday night tailgates last until midnight or later. The biggest problem was that small road you had to take until you hit the tollway. The tollway nows goes all the way to Main Street.
I 45 to Dallas, then the Texas 75 North, then I 635 West, then the tollway north, then Main Street, and then you are there.
The problem in Houston is that the agreement with the Toyota Center is that the city will not fund any competitive arena, and a soccer stadium would compete for concerts. Private financing is very difficult to arrange. The opposition in places like Sugar Land is already up and running. The MLS really wants to see some progress.

yay for jobs!
It's mid afternoon & I still haven't heard anything from the job I applied for. They told me I'd find out by today. I wonder if something came up & I didn't get the job.
Woo-hoo! It looks like I got the job! The interview went great & I was told I have a great chance of getting hired. Infact I have to go back tomorrow for orientation. The only thing they're gonna do is a background check,which shouldn't be a problem, I don't have a criminal record. I had to take a drug test,I should pass. So unless something...

I so didn't want Brazil to be in the Finals. Now they'll send the ref after us to try to get Argentina there. CONMEBOL sucks.

Thanks for posting on my blog. I am glad you had a fun time at Morrissey as well.
While I like Mexico, I really think it should be Argentina and Brazil. We'll see though. You never know. As far as the refs, have you ever noticed that the Colombian refs are horrible?

You know I've never been to Hell-A, maybe I should go there sometime, although I'm afraid I might want to go all Carl Johnson and end up in the big house
Yeah, playing GTA: San Andreas long enough will mess up your mind.

If you need some anti-inflammatories or muscle relaxants or something I know we have some samples in the office. Is the car totalled?
Man.
Were there surveillance cameras or did you find any witnesses or anything?
I would be sooo mad.
Let me know if you need something dude. I'm glad you're ok
