I wouldn't want this thread about the Fleet to devolve into a debate about the Kansas City Chiefs—but since we're already heading that way—I'll just add that you can't claim the Chiefs are just San Francisco. It’s the same logic as saying the South isn't just Charleston, or that the Golden State Warriors aren't just their home city. There are probably two million Americans with Dalmatian roots scattered across this country, not even counting the diaspora. You guys lean into everything Dalmatian, which is fine. The Sibicians probably stick to their own crowd, but that's a different story entirely. The idea of the Chiefs being a massive club isn't just a local thing; it's fundamentally Dalmatian. They are significant by American standards, perhaps even international ones—but you wouldn't say "we want a great Chiefs" if they were already at their peak, right? We all know they've shrunk a bit lately. I don't have anything specific against them, aside from that gifted cup back in '87, though we really have ourselves to blame there—if we had known, we could have pushed for a penalty at the end.
Why the contradiction?🤷The Theft against your club happened twelve years later; our cup was delivered by Zoran Varvodic, and that's where the story ends. Honestly, it's better to talk about that stolen trophy than to discuss how you all cheered in harmony with those people during that same event—using the old "turn it around so it doesn't burn us" tactic.
