If you're lost, just use the contact info you should have and call someone, or thank God you can always find a spot to ask questions every weekend. Or you could just shoot a DM to tablet100. He's a solid guy. Does everything really have to be spelled out here? Just being helpful. Peace.
Why do you always have to act like a know-it-all? 😛 We're having a perfectly good, constructive debate about t-shirts without any nonsense, and then you jump in with those "don't post that here" or "call this person, call that person" rules. Just let people talk. 😉
swifteagle46 said:Just one little observation/question/critique here—nothing malicious, I promise—now that these shirts are being mentioned again. I honestly don't know who handles the group's marketing or how this whole official fan shop setup works, but in my opinion, we are absolutely bottom-tier when it comes to this stuff. It’s painful. Please don't come at me with the "we aren't models" or "do it better yourself if you can" excuses, but has whoever is designing this stuff ever actually heard the word *design*? Take those North Face style tees, for example. They've put three "types" of shirts up for sale, each with five different motifs (which, by the way, have been used on a million other products), and they just throw them onto the shirt in different orders and positions, and suddenly that's three "new" shirts. I mean, seriously? You've got North Face branding, a Stone Island logo that says White boys, and then Chicago Blackhawks fans printed on the hoodie strings? 🙂 ...all topped off with random colors on the sleeves, some weird patterns, and lines under the text... Or take the second one: it says White boys, then there's that edgy guy in a hoodie, then that shield with the "h," then Chicago Blackhawks fans on the strings again. The next model is the exact same crap, just swapping North Face for the 1950s era figure and that same old shield that's already been slapped on a billion other items. Do you see what I mean? It all looks cluttered, messy, and totally tasteless. It feels like they're just churning stuff out to sell to the widest possible crowd—people who will buy anything as long as it's loud, colorful, and covered in symbols—rather than making things for actual members of the fan group.
Don't get me wrong, it's not worth getting worked up over right now, and it's not the end of the world, but consider this some well-meaning feedback for future projects. And let's be clear, not everything produced has been bad (there have been a few gems that were actually decent). But personally, I'd much rather see three high-quality, meaningful shirts released a year than twenty mediocre ones that are all basically the same thing.
To me, the whole thing looks like a total circus. Honestly, I wouldn't wear 90% of this stuff.🤷

How can people be blamed just because the majority prefers standing rather than drinking, like how Miller described it in that "hooliganism" piece?....
fadedtiger8 said:Are you messing with me by bringing up Vanilla Ice, or am I just sounding stupid?!
Why would I mess with you? Vanilla is actually running the disco at that rugby club in hopes of making some money... they even hired a few guys from the Black Knights to handle the entrance. It’s gonna be a blast...

Let's focus on taking action against the US Soccer Federation instead of messing around with "private" drama before the assembly. Show up at the meeting and speak your mind—complain and cry all you want. Then, let's stand together once the new leadership is chosen. Good luck to whoever gets the job.
Preach!!
wanderingcobra18, hit me with a ten-leg parlay for a few grand... just make sure to include that one sucker game that'll screw me over. 😁
Do you lean more toward being an Ultras fanatic, living that lifestyle, or do you just have a major grudge against those New York guys?
Obviously, a few nasty letters haven't caused any real damage, and this is actually a step in the right direction. Maybe I'm just too much of an idealist, so I guess I'm expecting big things ;-)
Of course it’s hypocritical. It’s pure hypocrisy to show up to the same meeting and then go out and throw stones at each other afterward. It's gross. Look, we might not get along, but I hate the USSF way more than I could ever hate any big-city elitist. Why should we even bother dealing with this mess again once we finally shake off this losing streak?
Gary Green32 said:Stop talking nonsense. Seriously. Like 70% of the people posting and criticizing things on this forum have the mindset of a total donkey.
Honestly, 70 percent of people hanging out in any Ultras circle have the mindset of a donkey.😉
I've been thinking about switching to a smaller TV, but I keep hearing people claim that a computer monitor is actually better for your eyes—even if you don't turn the TV off. Is there any actual truth to that eye strain theory?
So, I'm a little behind the curve when it comes to the latest PC tech, so I could really use some help here...
Here's what's on my mind... I'm looking for a monitor that can double as a TV. Does anyone have any solid recommendations? And honestly, is it actually worth getting one of these setups? THANKS!😉
reddrifter24 said:Heads up for Saturday, guys. Tom Koogler’s little spies are going to try and bury the swamp situation at the USSF by shifting the focus. They’re looking to bait the fans into some violence if you guys lose your cool. Don't fall for it. They’re flooding us with messages and constant fighting...
Well, there it is. They finally showed their true colors, and honestly, it’s exactly the kind of tool we needed to fight back.🤣
Why is everyone freaking out all of a sudden? Just let the guys do their thing... if you’ve got such a big problem with it, then get off the sidelines and beat them yourselves. I'm really hoping we can find some middle ground between the total extremists and people who just don't give a damn.😉
