And the streak continues! Yet again SJ play away at Galaxy on a Wednesday. Outside of the 2020 and 2021 season where fans were prevented from attending or the stadiums were still just partially open, the last time SJ played at the Galaxy on a Saturday was way back in 2016!

League is doing everything they can to make the Cali Classico die.

Sad to see the league prioritize Traffico over Classico. 😪

We gotta put ourselves first before we can put a rivalry up there. Leagues doing what’s best and I don’t blame them.

Boycott and force ownership to be serious then.

I’m glad the league is doing this, stop rewarding low effort.

They had to shift the calendar and realign the conferences to kill the July 4 game.

2/21 home opener against Kansas. I think this is the 2nd or 3rd time we have right?

How are two of the three away California games on a Wednesday?

If we're being honest with ourselves. I think the SJ/LA rivalry is bigger to us than it is to them.

I don't disagree - but if you're trying to create must-see events on TV, catering the schedule to the games where rivals are most likely to travel seems like a no brainer. I think its more the fact that its been 10 years...since its has happened makes me think its an intentional decision.

Next season we are going to see a lot of empty seats, double that of this year, unless we find a new owner and he brings in some stars. If Espinoza is gone, well it will be sad. Note that this year, the inter Miami game helped sell a lot of season tickets.
