Meh.

By wise from June 1, 2007

Ooh, a stadium that's neither in the city nor on any public transport lines? Tantalizing. You Californian real estate developers really know how to charm us. Might there be a nearby Crate & Barrell to shop at in this new development? SOLD.

EDIT: also, read this very nice story.

The MN Thunder used to play in a stadium surrounded my dozens of fields out in the St. Paul suburbs. It was a somewhat cool, soccer hub, and obviously appealed to the soccer moms. Then, a few years ago they moved to a more urban locale in St. Paul to try and get more urban and ethnic fans to attend matches. Pretty much the opposite of what people are hoping for here.

Since we already have an established urban Timbers Army here in Portland it would appear they are again thinking that we're not important enough since the real money is with those suburban soccer moms. Meh indeed. Also, I would add--Ugh.
