The Red Bulls Return Tonight

phpVc6mikPM.jpg You have to hand it to Major League Soccer, they found a way to make soccer even more irrelevant in the United States, starting the season on the first night of March Madness. That’s right, the Red Bulls begin their season tonight against the Seattle Sounders FC. The Bulls are coming off a trip to the MLS Cup and their most successful season in franchise history. Repeating the success of last season will be tough though. Juan Pablo Angel is back and Danny Cepero is starting in goal for the suspended Jon Conway, but Dave van der Bergh is off to Dallas. They have added some youth, but can Juan Carlos Osorio pull off another coaching miracle? Then again, bet against the Red Bulls at your own risk.

They're not even in New York, they play in New Jersey?! WTF. No, I like soccer, but I'm not transferring two trains and two shuttle buses to see it in New Jersy. Thank you. No. WTF. No wonder they have trouble getting fans into the stadium. Put one in Williamsburg. Hipsters love soccer.

They don't have trouble getting fans into the stadium; it looks empty because they play in a stadium that is too large and not designed for watching soccer.

It will be much better & easier to check them out next season when they have their own soccer-specific stadium, rather than a shared one.

It will only be a 15-minute PATH ride from WTC!

They play in the same place as the NEW YORK Jets and the NEW YORK Giants.
