I dunno, there's always been a large Hispanic complement at the Galaxy games I've been to.
I do keep an eye on the Galaxy - particularly after signing JPA - but I can't say I make a concerted effort to watch their games (or any other MLS games for that matter).
I had always assumed that Chivas USA were the side who most of the Hispanics in L.A./SoCal chose to support? Oversimplification on my part or do they get the majority?
I think the Mexicans in SoCal who support Chivas USA do so because their REAL club is plain old Chivas. It'd be like us supporting the Villa reserve team. What nonsense, over the past 5 years that has been the main drive for MLS. Most of the key players have been coming from Central and South America.
Say what? LA. Juninho/Leonardo/JPA/Cardozo
San Jose. Hernandez/Luiz/Morales
Chivas USA. Mendoza/Magnamura/Trujillo/Moreno/Mondaini
FC Dallas. Half the team is south american
Sounders. Alonso/Fernandez/Montero/Rosales
Fire. Pappa/Chaves/Nazarit
etc etc point is you see more south/central americans who are actually contributing to a side than European based ones.
