Great game | 1:58 a.m. April 13, 2008
Could have even been worse for DC. Morales cracked one off the post. Duechars had a few chances he should have finished. Great defending and finishing. Now go do it on the road!

Great game RSL!

Win or lose this years team is exciting... With this kind of passion on the field there should be at least 20,000 fans in the stadium or Salt Lake dosen't deserve a team.

Newsflash!! Most people in Salt Lake don't want a team. Most people in Salt Lake dont' care about the team. Most people in Salt Lake want Real to go away.

I'm not sure what Virginiafan is saying. RSL will be in the Top 3 in attendance this year. They get more attendance than any Blaze or Bees game. Get your facts straight.

Congratulations, RSL. We, Texas fans continue to follow your deserved ascent. Time will come when RSL will be recognized as one of the top soccer clubs in the great USA,

To Virginiafan: if you don't care about your team, please stick to your sport of choice. Otherwise jealousy, envy and bad karma will eat up your health.

To all the Utahans brothers: We'll see you when the new stadium opens. 7 Texans will spend some good money in your beautiful state.

See you...

How do you know what most Utahn's want?? Have you personally interviewed every single person who lives in the state on the subject because everyone I know wants ReAL to stay in Utah. I guess your talking about the 13000 fans that signed that lame referendum that went no where. I might be mistaken but I'm pretty sure there are more than 13000 people that live in the state of Utah...

Who says there is no scoring in soccer? All four goals were masterpieces. Note to Kreis: If you want to fill the stadium, KEEP WINNING.

Although the referendum on the public funding of the Sandy soccer stadium failed, polls taken last spring clearly indicated that a majority of Utahns, especially those living in SLC were opposed to the funding bill passed by the Utah legislature. I agree that opposition to the public funding does not necessarily mean that people want to see the soccer team go somewhere else. If I had a chance to sign the petition calling for a referendum I would have done it. I have no problem with soccer per se, but I do not believe it is a proper use of tax revenues to subsidize a professional sports team. Go watch soccer if you want but please don't force me or anyone else help pay for your ticket. Call that lame if you like--I call it honest and fair.

Craig, I assume that you don't attend any sporting events or cultural events in town. They are all pretty much subsidized to some degree.

Go live in Evanston or Albequerque if you don't want any tax subsidized pro sports teams. Although they both still have tax subsidized entertainment, so I guess you better just crawl under a rock somewhere and curl up in the fetal position. If you're a sports fan in Utah, trying to hold RSL as a villain for using TOURISM taxes you are a hypocrite. There are no sports teams in Utah from Jr. High up to the Pro's that aren't spotless.

Go Real Go Jazz! I'm not a Blaze fan, but I ain't no one-trick pony either. I'm fine if there are sports around that I don't enjoy like arena football

Dear Craig | 6:27 p.m. April 13, 2008
Oh really, your personally paying for my tickets? well then can I have my money back for the season tickets I have purchased the last three years because I don't know where my money went then...? Its the same argument over and over again and its getting old.
First off if you didn't sign the referendum that is your problem because the guy set up stations all over Salt Lake City and went door to door, so you had some kind of opportunity.
Second the money isn't coming out of your pocket or any other tax payers pocket, it was money that already existed that was collected from Utah tourists. All the legislation did was extend that tax and said that X amount could be used towards building a parking lot and infrastructure (which was going to be done regardless) by the stadium. Other than that the stadium is privately financed.
Lastly the Dan Jones polls don't prove anything. Because if they were that accurate the referendum would have passed and that beautiful stadium wouldn't be under construction in Sandy.

RSL are incredibly fun to watch this year.

Great work Kreis.

I love how deep our team is.

I love how organized and poised our team is this season.

If they keep playing like this I can take a loss here and there, but these wins feel oh so good.

RSL 'til I die.

Yawn to Virginia and Craig. How much longer are we going to have to listen to you people complain about the stadium? I am sure Dan Jones' polls only called 78 yr old housewife's who answer the phone because they are bored and do not reflect the attitudes of people in SLC or the rest of Utah. The Jazz, Bees, and Grizzlies all got subsidies for their stadiums and comparatively were more expensive than what RSL was asking. The city of Toronto paid 100 million for their stadium (out of taxpayers pockets). I think we should all be thanking Dave Checketts for getting us a team in 2005 over cities like Seattle, Portland, Philly and St Louis. Also SLC is contributing less than what other MLS cities will have to for a stadium. Besides the only thing that separates SLC from Boise is the fact that we now have 2 professional sport teams. So lets drop the argument about the stadium it is here to stay.

Good Deal | 8:11 p.m. April 13, 2008
In all reality Salt Lake County got a steal for only having to pay 35 million for the infrastructure (which by the way they own!) I live near DC and the district just spent several HUNDRED million on a Baseball stadium that's average attendance is barely above what RSL or DC United get to their soccer games. Every sports stadium in America in the last 20 years has been publicly financed. Most to the tune of hundreds of millions. If you want a sports franchise you have to pay for it or they will just move somewhere that will pay for it. (aka whats happening in Seattle w/ the Supersonics) So be happy that you have a professional soccer team and all that had to happen was the county using their money to buy infrastructure that they get to keep.
