Kevin Payne is asking for your help
Below is a personal letter sent to D.C. United Supporters from United President and CEO Kevin Payne. I agree with the letter completely, and hope you will make it out. D.C. United, unlike most teams in MLS, truly measures itself on how many Championships they win. Everyone counts, and it's been nearly four years since the last major Cup was added to the largest trophy case in MLS.
Here's the letter. See you on the 3rd!
Dear United Supporter,
On Wednesday, September 3, 2008 D.C. United will play the Charleston Battery in the Championship match of the 2008 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. We are committed to winning this championship, but we need your help to do it!
The U.S. Open Cup is important to us for a number of reasons. It is the oldest national soccer competition in America. We were the first MLS team to win it, but we' ve not won it since. Most important, winning the Championship will secure our place in the 2009 CONCACAF Champions Cup.
This has already been a very busy season for the D.C. United family, and the support we've received from our supporters has been, as usual, the best in the league! But, we need you again!
Please come out on September 3rd and help carry DCU to victory in this important Championship. Many of you have already received an invoice for the match -- all you have to do is go on-line, pay the invoice, and print your tickets at home.
If you have not received an invoice yet, contact your sales representative or D.C. United Customer Service at 202-587-5000 or via e-mail at dcucustomerservice@dcunited.com
With your support, we can add another great trophy to our legacy as America's most decorated soccer team.
I'll see you at RFK on September 3rd!
Best wishes,
Kevin J. Payne
President/CEO of D.C. United
