How many spectators is LA Galaxy having?

They have on average 19,000 fans at each game, 3rd most in the MLS.

In other words, .

emm thats alot..

If that's a lot for soccer... wow. The average capacity for an NFL stadium is around 60,000. Some college stadiums get all the way up to 100,000-110,000.

So do football stadiums.

But there are A:more soccer teams competing for fans
B:The league (MLS that is) is alot smaller than the NFL.

Wikie'd it a few minutes ago. There are some pretty big Association stadiums.

They used to hold MASSIVE amounts of fans back in the old terraced days, that was the good old days.

Barcelonas stadium held 250,000 when it was all standing.

Jesus Christ. That's a lot. I believe the largest college stadium is Beaver Stadium, or "Happy Valley", where Penn State plays. Largest NFL stadium is the new Cowboy's stadium.

The Terraces are why alot of people (the older generation) love the beautiful game there is nothing like standin shoulder to shoulder with somebody on the terraces and screaming your lungs out.


Soccer fans also tend to follow their teams in different ways than Gridiron fans do, teams are associated with political views, for Example my team Crusaders is generally the team of Unionists and Ulster Nationalist Workers in North Belfast, our rivals Cliftonville is associated with Roman Catholic Workers who where Irish Nationalists.


Teams like Glasgow Celtic and Rangers have a masive political rivalry too, as do Fernabace (I hope i spelled it right) and Galatasary of Turkey Fernabace has mostly Left wing fans and Galatasary mostly right wing fans.


Its the Same with AS Roma and Lazio of Italy, ok now im going on a bit.

Most of the rivalries in football are for bragging rights. Either that, or the usual good teams battling for a playoff or BCS spot. Of course, some of the rivalries are just between teams who have played each other for almost a century. The best rivalries in the NFL are between the Packers (yeah that's right) and Bears or Packers and Vikings. There's some other good ones in the NFC East too. You probably don't know a lot of the stuff I'm referring to though. Most rivalries are territorial, is basically what I'm saying.

My neighbor's family are massive Rangers fans. Scottish, of course.

Congrats Mark Ingram!

I personally want Suh.

[Eirros]

All of this is true, anyone who dares to challlenge it will get assaulted by an assortment of cheeses and beers.

*prepares for cheese and beer assault with ice chest and toothpicks*

I humbly disagree sir,

Plus, we have this guy, and noone does it better than that:

Brees won his battle, but our enviroment is still better. You can't even have jet flyovers.

Alright, we dont have jets, but, noone can deny the badassery of our chant, lol...Plus, biting cold makes it harder to party,

Says you. It's pretty hard NOT to party with your shirt off, your body covered in green and gold paint, a cheesehat on your head, and a beer in your hand. In the snow. In a place nicknamed the Frozen Tundra.

Saints in a tight game again...

[Albundania]

Ya know, I didn't expect the Bears to win, but all the same, fuck.

[Maurepas]

Saints win baby! 13-0! What was that about Atlanta trippin us up? Who Dat!?

[F1-Insanity]

Colts 13-0 as well.

[Maurepas]

Colts 13-0 as well.

With any luck there'll be two undefeated teams in the Superbowl, with plenty of pure baddassery,

I'd love to see it

Someone will go 18-1 then, and we all know the golden 18-1 rule.

Psh, we have a whole street named after alcohol, devoted to public drunkenness, honestly,

[F1-Insanity]

Come on Bolts

Great goalline stand, Bolts get the ball back...

[Taeshan]

We lost but thats not the important thing. We have San Diego next so a big win from Dallas means its still us versus them for the bye. Hopefully we can at least win one of the remaning games to at least get above 9 wins. Cinci should at least win 2 0f 3. So it looks good.

[F1-Insanity]

Woohah! Thanks Chargers! Now my Giants can get right back into things in NFC East

Bolts had several heroic goalline stands blocking Barber runs, and once more Dallas' december is the definition of failure! Romo is a .omo
