Lights Out at HDC (Again)
In the 52nd minute and with Galaxy goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts sprawled on the turf in pain. (He's up, now, but the lights are still off).
Again, I'm told it's another power "dip" and the sensitive stadium lights take 10 minutes or so to come back on.

"Sensitive stadium lights"? Gee, for the amount of money AEG lusts after, you would think they would get a set of "nonsensitive" stadium lights.
Then again, this is AEG, the kind folks who brought you overpriced parking and concessions so they can steal you bli...er, serve their loyal fans.
