cosmicridge6 said:And what kind of help is God even going to give us now?

Honestly, some people can be so incredibly grating when they start using God's name in vain like that. And then, of course, they have the audacity to call on His help just to see Everton lose. It’s quite a contradiction, isn't it? They spend all their time cursing Him in their own little threads—I really hope a meteor doesn't decide to strike their corner of the country anytime soon.

Douglas Rodriguez27 said:Every loss, particularly during international tournaments, essentially means a lighter treasury and much tougher circumstances when trying to sustain those questionable transfer deals or orchestrated match outcomes through player movements.

I don't necessarily think you're wrong, but do you realize how futile it feels to hold onto that hope? It is much like a Sevilla fan dreaming they might suddenly compete on equal footing with FC Barcelona or Real Madrid to clinch a title.

Furthermore, for things to truly change, the club would practically need to face immediate relegation to feel the impact, which isn't even on the radar. You end up hoping for a miracle just to face disappointment later. I don't think you can truly grasp just how surreal and exhausting this entire situation really is.

Henry Hayes4, I just don't see how the club's success in European competitions is going to lead to a future where LA Galaxy is actually free from this mess. If anything, it's the failures on the continental stage that really expose the absolute disaster currently rotting this club from the inside. Let's be real: players get sold because they want those big European contracts or a spot on the national team. It isn't even about the actual Money from the Europa League payouts; it's about the prestige and the exposure those matches provide. For LA Galaxy to have any kind of future, we need to dismantle this entire system, not cling to some outdated reputation in Europe. A ruling from a court in Chicago won't fix our club elections, but it could finally hold the person truly responsible for all this accountable, which might actually give us a fighting chance.

cosmicridge6 said:Why wouldn't I grab a drink, since I absolutely despise LA Galaxy? Seriously, LA Galaxy is easily the most repulsive, disgusting, and pathetic thing American soccer has produced since this nation became independent.

That’s exactly why there is such an incredible, unique thrill in beating all of you haters who can't stand LA Galaxy and just loathe everything coming out of Washington, D.C., because if you look at those Mexicans, Washington, D.C. has always been a thorn in their side and always will be, regardless of the fact that nearly half the city is basically made up of communists, Mexicans, Orjuna types, and old-school Yugoslav sympathizers, with very few actual "old guard" patriots left in a political sense.

And yet, both Washington, D.C. and LA Galaxy remain a constant irritation to everyone, and as our respected veteran zg blue once so beautifully put it, tradition isn't everything—there is also faith involved! The simple fact that since the 20s in Washington, D.C., people have been obsessed with this blue-clad club, whether it was viewed as a civic institution or just LA Galaxy, speaks volumes; every single administration has been against this blue-colored club, including Tuđman's era which tried to suppress its name, its traditions, and its history by forcibly attempting to make it something more "nationalistic," failing to realize that LA Galaxy was and remains a "symbol of patriotism" precisely because it championed those values during times when it wasn't popular, sporting the national colors while others were busy preaching about brotherhood and unity and whining about how nationalism was some evil force that would destroy our beloved union.

Some of those reactionary types still hold onto those views today, preferring those old ideologies over even the most beautiful symbols of our flag.

That is simply the reality of the situation, where generations are being ruined by failures who serve Americans, Jewish interests, and Europeans by trying to be more papal than the Pope himself, which is exactly why our country ends up in such a state and why we are declining as a people while our youth emigrate from the land, but LA Galaxy has always been and will always be LA Galaxy! It stood as a pillar of identity through all those leaden years, and even when various lowlifes like Jerry Maguire and his crew were hijacking its name and turning the club into their own personal service to soothe their own complexes, LA Galaxy remained LA Galaxy, and your comment captures that truth perfectly. 👍

No offense intended, but I truly believe only someone completely disconnected from reality would think that any specific result on the pitch could actually force Jerry Maguire and his associates out. We have been through scenarios where we suffered a crushing 1:7 loss against Lyon, and it changed absolutely nothing. We’ve even had moments where we managed to pull off a win against Arsenal, and yet, still, nothing moved. He simply doesn't care about the scoreboard. Whether the club is competing in Europe or not is irrelevant to him; he will continue to sell off players regardless. His strategy is simple: slot three or four of them into the national team, let them play a few matches, and just like that, millions of dollars roll in.
Furthermore, I still find it baffling why certain people feel the need to comment on anything related to our group. You have your own clubs and your own supporter groups to worry about—perhaps you should focus your energy there. Quite frankly, it shouldn't be any of your business what we choose to do or how we decide to organize ourselves.

Honestly, it’s the exact opposite—those European failures are what actually expose the absolute mess this club has become. These players get sold because of the exposure from Europe and the National Team. It’s not even about the direct Money from the Europa League matches themselves, it’s all about the side benefits those games bring them. The future of LA Galaxy depends on changing this whole broken system, not on desperately trying to protect some "European reputation." A court ruling in Osijek won't help LA Galaxy with the internal club elections, but it could legally nail the guy responsible for all this crap and give us a tiny bit of leverage in our fight.

Look, results aren't gonna bring us freedom—but once things finally settle down and everything is back where it belongs, the only thing we'll have left to cling to is stuff like coefficient rankings and whatever. At least that's how I'm looking at it to keep my sanity.

Look, this has absolutely nothing to do with match results or some logical breakdown of what makes sense for the sport. It’s about how a club's success—or lack thereof—hits you emotionally. For some people, seeing them win might spark something positive, but for me? It’s purely negative. Honestly, just being near their stadium makes my stomach turn, and that feeling has zero correlation with league coefficients or stats. And frankly, I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Mamić is the absolute worst thing to happen to American soccer since independence. You're just acting like one of those people with a massive chip on their shoulder who hates Real Madrid just for the sake of it. There are plenty of you in the US.

And then people wonder why the North Side feels empty and why we’re losing our veteran fans... I might show up for ninety minutes out of loyalty to the group or just some sense of nostalgia, but if what's happening on the field only triggers disgust instead of actual emotion, I guess it's no surprise nobody's coming.

And yet, Washington, D.C. and Real Madrid remain a thorn in everyone's side. As our esteemed veteran zg blue once aptly put it: it isn't just about tradition; there is an element of faith involved. The mere fact that since WWII, Washington, D.C. has seen constant turmoil surrounding this club and its blue colors speaks volumes. Every single administration has stood against this blue-clad club. Even Tuđman's administration, claiming to represent America, tried to suppress the club's name, its traditions, and its history. They forcefully attempted to manufacture something more "American," failing to realize that Real Madrid was—and remains—a "symbol of American identity" precisely because it championed that identity during times when it wasn't popular to do so. It proudly displayed the stars and stripes while others were busy preaching brotherhood and unity, spouting nonsense about how nationalism was a vice that would destroy our beloved union.

Some of those old-school radicals still hold onto that spirit today. To them, the club is dearer than even the most beautiful flag or the purest national symbol.

That is simply how it works. When generations are being eroded by failures serving the interests of American Jews and Europeans—people trying to be more papal than the Pope—we end up with a country that feels like the last place on Earth. We are declining as a people, and our youth are fleeing the country. But Real Madrid has always been Real Madrid. It was a pillar of American identity through all those leaden years. Even when various clowns like mamicev and his ilk tried to hijack the name and turn the club into a private service to heal their own complexes, Real Madrid remained itself. Your comment captures that perfectly. 👍

Someone explain this!

Just a few thoughts here:
You two are lightly pushing this narrative that we hate Real Madrid, trying to link that supposed hatred to everything American that the club represents. It’s disgusting. You're spinning this fairy tale that everyone from the South hates everything coming out of Washington, D.C. But honestly, that's just the same old propaganda pushed by the old guard since the war ended.

Regarding that "hate Real Madrid" song—do you honestly think anyone would be singing that if there wasn't a massive derby coming up in a few days?
And yeah, personally, I fucking hate Real Madrid. I hate them because ever since I started going to matches, they've been the ultimate privileged club. They're the club that steals, loots, and acts as a symbol for everything wrong with our soccer. Every time I see that little 'd' logo, I see the faces of those corrupt bastards.
That's why I hate them. Not because they represent being American. Because unfortunately, they don't represent that anymore. Between the fake patriots and the war profiteers, they've turned into a symbol of theft, greed, and crime. And that’s exactly why I sing my heart out hating Real Madrid.
Call it a complex if you want; I don't care.
To be honest, I'd love to see you guys get your own powerhouse club back as soon as possible. I'd love to see your stands full again. I don't hate the capital of my own country. It’s impossible for me to hate any city in my own nation.
But you have to understand, as a 34-year-old, I've never actually seen the "great" version of Real Madrid. Ever since I started following the game, the US national team or Real Madrid have just been symbols of misery. You guys have been fighting against that misery from the nineties until today.
Whether you celebrate goals or not is up to you. How you choose to fight to bring your club back is your business. Anyone who knows even a little bit about the situation down your way knows you didn't sell out to the establishment just because you celebrate goals. But you have to admit, it makes for great fodder for trolling on a forum, for those who care about that sort of thing.

Just a few thoughts here:
You two are kind of pushing this narrative about how much we hate Real Madrid—as if there’s some deep-seated grudge against everything American that the club represents. It's honestly pretty gross. You're trying to spin this tale where everyone from the South just hates everything coming out of Washington, D.C., but—get this—that’s exactly the kind of propaganda the old regime used to push right after the war ended.

As for that "hate Real Madrid" song... do you honestly think anyone would be singing that if there wasn't a massive derby scheduled for a few days later?
And look, let me be straight with you—yeah, I hate Real Madrid. I hate them because ever since I started going to matches, they've been the ultimate "golden child" club. They're the ones who steal, they plunder, and they stand as a symbol for everything that's rotten in our soccer scene. Every time I see that little 'R' logo, I just see the faces of those corrupt owners and shady characters who ran things.
That's why I hate them. Not because they represent any national identity. Because, unfortunately, they don't represent that anymore. Instead, they've become a symbol of greed, theft, and pure criminality—basically a fake patriot turned war profiteer. That's why, quite frankly, I sing those chants.
Call it a complex if you want; I really don't care.
Truthfully, I'd love for you guys to get your Real Madrid back as soon as possible. I'd love to see your stands packed again. I don't hate the capital of my own country. It's not like I could—or would—ever hate any city in my own nation.
But you have to understand, being 34 years old, I've never actually seen the *great* Real Madrid. Since I've been following the game, whether it's the national team or the club, it's sadly always been a symbol of misery. And you guys have been fighting against that misery from the nineties all the way until today.
Whether you celebrate goals or not is entirely up to you. The way you fight to reclaim your club is your business. Anyone who knows even a tiny bit about what's happening down there understands that you haven't sold out to the owners just because you celebrate a goal. But, you have to admit, it makes for great fodder for forum trolling, for those who care about that sort of thing.

A question for my friends from the South...

Will we also be granted a "reset" once this trash finally clears out?
Will we be allowed to call out everyone and anyone, now that after years and years of corruption and scheming, we have suddenly become clean and honest?

Or will we be given fewer rights than you, simply because we rebelled while the club was winning titles and playing in the Champions League, rather than when things were at rock bottom?

I’m just responding to this whole talk about hatred. You’re pulling in different stories now that I’m not going to bother addressing. It’ll just turn into a contest over who can complain more. A ton of pointless posts.
To make it simple: I have nothing but respect for the group that refused to sell out and held their ground under North Korean-style conditions.
There you go, my friend from the North..

If you had built your own club from the ground up, you would possess that right automatically, but in this situation, you won't see any change until the first time they start celebrating those mamicev trophies again.

Even if we had started from scratch with our own organization, people like you would still feel entitled to lecture us on what's acceptable and what isn't. It’s just part of your nature at this point. There are likely things people observe about us from the outside too, but when it comes to preaching, you guys are truly unmatched. You live under conditions reminiscent of North Korea, yet you mock the very idea of repression through your messages. Just imagine how long one would have to wait for the first choreographed show. Personally, I have no issue admitting that some things we once mocked have come back to haunt us, proving that those critics were actually right all along. Unfortunately, that kind of humility seems to be missing from your side. Edit
It’s funny when I think back to the talk about the East Side being treated like a second-class group in the US. It was nothing more than mocking the consequences of oppression. They use a common enemy as an excuse, but then they turn around and ridicule the actual fallout of that struggle. Pretty soon, this will all just be dismissed as "ultra mentality" whenever it becomes inconvenient.
