Last night I stayed home to watch the WNBA All-Star game and it was so much better. Some observations as a season ticket holder:
1) This team sucks. Not just the record, but the way the team plays is boring and chickenshit It wasn't boring for the first half of the second season. That's literally the only extended stretch where this franchise has been fun to root for. Even when they win, it's boring with very few exceptions.
2) When I watch the team play, I feel back for the players. Brad Stuver in particular makes me sad. I didn't like that they let Diego Fagundez go, but at least he gets to play for a good team.
3) I can't sell my tickets, even when I try to sell them at rock bottom prices. When I invite business associates or family or friends to the games, they turn me down.
4) My older daughter loves going to games. She hates sports, but she likes branding and events. She says AustinFC is more of a merch brand and vibes event with its own soccer team.
5) I watched last night's game today. Not sure why I did, it was just more of the same.
I really want this franchise to be great. I have renewed my seats. Not sure I feel good about it.
