First post in a new forum

Welcome to the A-league, I definately will be looking foward to a road trip to Puerto Rico at sometime in the future.

Hopefully your ownership will be dedicated and we will see you around for a few seasons.

Wow! How cool! We'd love to go there and watch a match. I feel sorry for the players though. Isn't is dreadfully hot?

You have to take in the winds which can cool things off nicely. I imagine that the heat index is lower than on a Hot humid night in Charleston, Atlanta or even Richmond or Virgina Beach.

Of Course, Im all ready working on the wife so I can test my theory first hand.

Similar to what Mikey said, a friend of mine told me that the weather is absolutely beautiful year-round with great ocean breezes. I was under the impression that it would be awfully hot and humid. Sounds like paradise to me.

I grew up in PR and can confirm that JRL stadium is a bit inland -- no ocean breezes, folks. Overdevelopment in the metro area has also made the weather there pretty unbeararble. It's very hot and humid in the summer, but you can get the odd cool day. Unlikely, though. Hopefully they'll play a lot of night games.

I'm planning on going sometime myself!

Maybe we can arrange the first ever A-league.com/USL Discussion board convention in PR, how about it Dan? Bill? Allison?

Feel like arranging such a thing?
