Manifesto
Maybe its because of my San Francisco upbringing, but I've always had a "do it yourself" attitude. Personally, I don't like the idea of sitting on
my ass, desperately waiting for some white knight to come out of the darkness and save my boys from the obscurity that is US soccer history.
It's just not my style.
What is my style is the idea of owning my own team, sharing it with my friends, and having it represent me and my city to the fullest. It's an
opportunity that does not happen too often and we would be foolish not to give it our very best to try.
Nothing great comes easy. Besides, who said its supposed to be easy? Was getting through high school easy? College? First Marriage? First Divorce?
First Kid?...You survived, didn't you? Life has always been about getting knocked around and fighting for what you want.
That being said, I've fully considered the options, and I like the one I am going to choose. I'd rather have the SAN FRANCISCO VICTORY be alive and
well, with the name of every 1906er behind it.
- Mike Alonso, president of the 1906 Supporters
