cco.com had a story about the RSL game. Wasn't bad except for the fact that they don't explain what the US Open cup is or even say the word "soccer" anywhere. Nor do they mention NASL, NSC, Blaine, Nessy, Gary the Cat, and worst of all they don't mention that we took their money and ran.

Yesterday I sent MPR News an email saying (basically) "Thanks for your hosts mentioning the undefeated league champion Lynx twice in the last few days. Can they mention the undefeated league champion MN Stars too?"

This morning I get in my car, turn on the radio, catch the end of a casino/horse racing piece. Then it's a full 4 minutes of the Stars, Vikings stadium, etc., right before 7:30am. http://minnesota.publicradio.org/display/web/2012/06/03/minn-soccer/

Yep, Dave, I think it's good to gently remind our news people that this is a big story. This story from Tim Nelson is great.
Also, make sure you all "like" MLS4MN and every once and a while annoy your friends by sharing one of the stories. We get about 10 new people a week and we want that number to keep growing--its just one more avenue to get people thinking about soccer.

To be honest, the voting we can do is page views. Star Trib and others will respond to numbers like page views, likes, tweets, etc. I originally got on twitter just so i could "vote" for articles by retweeting soccer articles.

That said, I certainly voted here about 50 times.

When I first voted we were at 4%. It's up to 10% now. Creeping up on the Lynx.

Remeber this is a StarTribune non-scientific poll. Nobody pays attention to anything in the StarTribune.
