    Frisco is a nice place, I love it there. But it seems to be an odd place to have a championship game between Houston and New England.

    GO DYNAMO!

    I'm looking foward to watching this game. I haven't paid very close attention this season...living in Austin with absolutely no coverage doesn't help. I hope they get to bring a championship home to Houston. Ain't no better way to get the fans than winning the MLS Cup right off the bat.

    They have set locations for the MLS Cup every year. Pizza Hut Park is a wonderful soccer-only complex that other MLS cities are striving for. LA & Chicago recently opened theirs.

    Well as soon as the Texans game is done Sunday (3pm) I will turn it over to ABC and I sure hope these guys can get it done!

    I am not sure how many teams have won a title in their first year of existance or in the dynamo's case their first year in a new city.

    I have been to two games this year and I think the atmosphere is good and soccer will make it in H-Town!

    I know that the complex there is a nice and new facility, but is that the sole reason? Or is it that in combination with the weather? I don't know, but it just seemed like a strange place to have a Championship game to me.

    No stranger than holding the Super Bowl in Detroit, IMO.

    It's futbol time in Houston! I'll be in Big D for the UH/SMU game on Saturday and we're probably going to make a pit stop in Frisco for the game. This weekend has the potential to be a great one.

    Oh for the record, the San Jose Earthquakes/Houston Dynamo franchise will be going for their third MLS Cup title since 2001, which is second most all-time.

    I was at the game on Sunday. Amazing atmosphere.

    The rumor mill on a Soccer Specific Stadium for the Dynamo will ramp up if we win on Sunday.

    We'll need more room for the Texian Army and El Batallon fans. The fans have been great this year, and they deserve a Stadium. I'll be happy to join these guys in a few games next year:
