If the buzz I have heard is right about next years season ticket prices, I think they will have a nice chance of increasing their numbers and if they get Ruud, well 10,000 would be a number I think they can reach. I don't know much but when Dave Checketts sets his mind to something, he usually gets his way. I know he now wants to see RSL find a DP, he has said so a couple of times now, he wants an offensive player with a preference for a striker and he has a relationship with Ruud. I say that gives us about a 50-50 chance of seeing him in a RSL jersey at some time in the next 24 months.

I was excited by the idea of Nedved coming to the MLS (till UAE gave him an offer he couldn\'t refuse), but hey, I\'ll take a Dutch international instead. If it only were a possibility...
