They fight for the cannon every year with FC Dallas. The winner takes it home.

It’s sad to see the stadium so empty. They look super good this year. Much better than last year. Too bad I’m devoting most of my funds to UH. Well that’s not bad at all ha!

The Dynamo Front Office have burned a lot of bridges with fans off the field. They are having a serious PR issue. Season tickets are way down this year. Despite the improvement, the problem is that all the top players they have acquired this year are on one-year loan deals with the option to purchase. Very few die-hard fans believe the ownership will shell out the cash when the loans come up regardless how well those players perform this year.

Agreed. I was following them pretty religiously a few years back, but the last few years with the mess they’ve had with coaching and the poor product on the field killed interest for me. I’m debating whether to get back on that train, but your post hit the nail on the head for me.

They should’ve had Erick Torres on the field all last year

The women (Dash) side is even worse. We hardly get to see the national team players even though teams are heavily advertised those players. How many times has Carli Lloyd has play with the Dash since joining.

She no longer plays for the Dash. She’s at Manchester City

She’s playing for City through the conclusion of their season this spring, but will return to the Dash after that.

The organization lost me as a potential fan when they decided that the team name “Houston 1836” was offensive.
