@Rob_Shenanigans @kylamb8 "...regardless of what NBA rules say."

What?

@JeremiahOshan They had to get rid of members of the FO to get the roster refresh correct?

Fans had to take action to protest and boycott to get the team to make changes.

Wasn't just a roaster refresh.

@BritVoxUS @downs_shane My anecdotal experience is afternoon kickoffs, especially during the summer, suck the life out of the crowd and the games are generally of lesser quality.

I never enjoyed them as much as an evening game.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@BritVoxUS Also keep in mind. Hanauer with his mindset is fine with attendance dropping as long as they are making more money from tickets.

I would rather have 45k+ in the stadium than 30k or less while they are technically making more from the tickets.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@BritVoxUS Price increases and less exciting games.

One of the biggest things I heard back in 2009 from so many people was how affordable the games were then add in the exciting games.

They need to target younger adults and have cheaper prices. Brings more energy to the stadium.

@ELROLONW He is a status quo owner. He always has been since the USL. He will try to min max the business side of things while ignoring and hurting the fan side of things. Which ultimately hurts the business side.

Great as a minority owner. Not as a majority owner.

@SNDRNVIA @nickshargas @mbcracken I grew up in the area. My youth baseball coach was a whitworth baseball coach I believe. Not sure he was still coaching around your time there or not. He also coached me in soccer for at least a year.

@nickshargas @SNDRNVIA @mbcracken I played on EWUs club team for a few years from around 03/04 to maybe 05/06. Until I jacked up my ankle in the field house during a winter practice...

@JackyLacky__ Stevo in SLC Punk!

@JeremiahOshan Pricing structure, and other actions off the field only compound the lack of excitement on the field.

Hanauer isn't a good majority owner.
Nice guy. But not the ownership I want running the team.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@mkstnr Same, just turned it on.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@JeremiahOshan Canceled my season tickets.

Back when we first joined MLS everyone was saying what a good deal tickets were and everyone was having a good time.

They have been trying to min/max their way to more money rather than just fostering demand and opening more of the stadium.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@SNDRNVIA We need to vote Hanauer out if at all possible.

I am kinda ok with things on the field and more pissed off with how they handle the business side of things.

It's been going down hill since Hanauer took over as majority owner.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@ManagerTactical Sounders FO has squandered a lot of the goodwill they had built up and people are cancelling season tickets. Attendance is dropping year over year.

They are fumbling a good thing all for greed.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@JeremiahOshan He does some kind of movement with his leg. Even if that's getting out of the way of the ball he is interfering or whatever the correct word is for the lotg. Likely the correct call.

They first had to determine he was offside which was very close. Then judge Vargas' actions.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@daniel_hudon @bellacfc I keep reading this and it's just not true.

You could see how they are preparing to defend set pieces against YOU for example. This allows the spying team to make adjustments based on that.

You have specifics for how they are PREPARING to play against YOU, it matters.

[A Hansen @asoc122]

@ZSickmind @fizzlebuns1 @walkerwright17 @MickeyRKennedy You support a local team because you enjoy the sport and that's your local team. It's that simple.

If all you care about is what division the team is in then you are the problem.

Always support local.

@honeybluefairy I thought it was gonna roll as well...
