This is a positive development! Oh, and I know that true hooliganism is a way off, and may never make it here. Please let it be so.

As for those of you who don't appreciate the 3 C's, that's fine. I'm just presenting my imperfect opinion and my thanks for those that do appreciate the 3 C's of good fanmanship.

Now as to cerveza, constitutional rights, and credit cards... (nice one, Jose Luis) :signrocko

That's true, but perhaps there are issues here that would spark hooliganism.

After all, isn't anyone surprised that the liquor bottles and big gulps are being thrown in SLC?

At the games, I sense a kind of simmering tension that seems ready to explode at the first opportunity to remove accountability from the individual and place it on the crowd.
