Vic, who comments fairly frequently in the last few weeks, asked that I do a poll on whether people would rather have professional soccer or affiliated baseball in town. So here it is…and also take into consideration that a new stadium would be needed for either venture. Also, I know that we have the Patriots but lets assume we get a top division NASL team.
My name is David and I am living El Paso.
Wow I got to contact local news stations….. This is gold
What if David from the website contacts el paso times, el diario, utep newspaper, las cruces, el paso local news. This can be done, but we need more 100,000 signatures from the city to get the ownership group on our side of soccer and especially the city council and the mayor.
That poll has some interesting results. I haven’t voted in the poll but I would choose both.
Soccer futbol is the future of El Paso, people need to open their eyes. We can basically just afford one stadium and a soccer stadium is so easy to maintain and work with than a diamond. Of course both would be nice even an arena but soccer in this city speaks for itself. Soccer is worldwide and we would have season games,playoffs, international friendliest versus MLS teams Mexican teams and south American teams. Soccer is a endless world of options but it depends on the city and the ownership group but this is a soccer city, not just because Hispanics like soccer but every ethnicity in el paso would lean towards soccer.
I tried to vote and the website is not working or something—-
el paso should do this

Wow- I go utep and there was papers on the walls telling people to go to this website and to vote. Why not start a soccer team for MEN at Utep, it would definitely compete versus Division 1 or 2. New Mexico Lobos has a top soccer program, why not El Paso
gooooooooooooooooooooooool versus home run
golaso versus gram slam
