(Alejandro) Moreno was told he was left off the Crew’s protected list by former road roommate Stefani Miglioranzi and as of late this afternoon had not heard from anyone in the Crew front office.
Shawn Mitchell - Covering the Crew blog
You know what? Don't take my word that this is another example of how the backward hillbillies that run the Crew down there in C-Bus (there goes my accreditation request for next March) lack any sort of class or common sense and seem hell-bent on alienating all of their players and fans.
No, take the word of one of their biggest apologizers.
The Crew front office is a disaster. Give them another two or three more years of this and they will have run that team into the bloody ground. Columbus readers that find this can get defensive – and all Ugly American with anti-Canadian comments – or you can actually open your eyes to what many of us have been saying for a long time. There is a problem in Ohio. Whether it’s failing to put any sort of reasonable security plan in place to deal with 2,000 TFC fans (despite months of effort from the leadership of the TFC supporter’s groups to reach out and work with them), harassing their own supporter’s groups with a near obsession over the word “asshole,” 10,000 empty seats for a playoff game, low-balling the 2008 league MVP in contract negotiations, or failing to have the decency to tell one of their players that he had been selected by Philadelphia, there is clear and consistent evidence that they are basically incompetent.
Columbus and MLS deserves much better than what they are getting from the Crew front office.

No argument here. That organization is a circus.
The mickey mouse shit done by this front office is always just painful. How big coiuld this club be with a competent front office.
Im not going to lie i am a huge crew fan and i read your blog because i agree with most of what you write about. I just wanted to say that you are spot on here and our FO is a joke and it really feels like they want us to fail for whatever reason.
Keep up the good work
Hey, I hear there's a guy with a huge stadium in Detroit looking for a soccer team...
Screw the people who run the Crew. In one season we fans have have had to endure attempts to not only neuter the supporters groups but additionally a 50% hike in ticket prices as well as the installation of security guards ringing the supporters section at every game checking everyone's tickets on their into the Nordecke.
Crew stadium had such great atmosphere last season and up until around June this season, when everything just died. I dont know if I'm going to bother wasting my money to go to the games next season as I feel that watching them on ONN will be more enjoyable than going to the stadium to watch the games (and I live less than 4 blocks from the fucking stadium, so that ought to tell you something).
