The Aztexan at a Year
Happy birthday to this blog! It's been one year since Austin Aztex FC was announced, and I started this blog in a fit of excitement as soon as I heard the news.
Looking back at that first post, it's good to know that my fears were unfounded that the Aztex "might fall apart . . . and get stuck in a crappy stadium and doomed by terrible attendance and totally overshadowed by the all-encompassing Longhorn Football Machine".
2008 was actually a great opening year for the Aztex. I'm not sure what could possibly have been better, realistically. Winning the league, I suppose, but that would almost be greedy. At any rate, here comes 2009, with the addition of the USL-1 team, which looks to only go upward from there.
So, thanks to "old" fans & readers, welcome to new ones, congratulations all around on the first year, best of luck on the second, and looking forward to many, many more to come. Go Aztex!
