Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Hey, at least it's not lacrosse. I don't get that sport at all. It's really slow hockey with less contact.

For GT to have consistent sellouts in football GT will need to;
1. Provide an exciting brand of football.
2. Consistently win with exciting brand of football.
3. Have star players with exciting winning brand of football.
4. Build a better reputation within the ATL community.
5. Be attractive to the millinials which again includes being cutting edge, exciting, sexy, & fresh. Ways to get bridge technology with the football experience.
6. Better link with Black Atlanta. In what ways does GT interact with the AUC? radio? TV? in the public schools.
7. Consistent alum support. CPJ is the head coach alum should be 100% committed to him.
8. Area youth and community leagues should be invited regularly free entry.
9. Lower prices
10. Enhancements to in game fan experience.

11. CPJ should get out and be committed to engaging fans and potential sidewalk fans. Instead he does nothing but berate local print & tv media.

Is this in response to all the nonexistent claims people aren't making about MLS being bigger than college football? If so, you showed those people who weren't saying that that they would have been wrong if they had!

And FYI, if we are just playing the "average attendance" game, MLS has a larger average attendance than both the NBA and NHL. That said, football is unquestionably still king in this country. MLS may have passed the NHL though, and has been steadily growing for the last 15 years.

All people are saying is that this certainly seems like a great start in Atlanta. No reason folks can't be both Tech and Atlanta United fans.

You mean this "nonexistent" claim?

By 2030 I think there will probably be just as many or more soccer fans in comparison to American football fans.

Or would my comment be directly applicable to his saying that soccer will be as popular or more popular than American football in a decade and a half? You tell me, you seem to be the expert on what is and is not applicable.
