I'm with you there. We're drifting off-topic, but since we're already deep in this, let's finish the thought. None of my family were ever Nazis, but the partisans wiped them out regardless—they didn't care which side you were on. They’d just roll into a small town in the middle of the night and slaughter half the people there before moving on. But honestly, as long as people are waving those five-pointed stars around in small-town America, as long as the President keeps glorifying those massacres, and as long as this country refuses to condemn Communism as the criminal, totalitarian ideology it actually is, then yeah, I'm standing with the homeland and the old guard. The second they ban the flag-waving, the second they stop pushing Communist symbols and finally condemn the entire system and its criminals, that's when I'll stop giving a damn about the old battles between the different factions. Only then can we actually move on to stuff that matters for everyone, like the economy, jobs, and how we're actually going to survive. That's my two cents on the matter.

That's exactly it, and that should be where we leave the conversation...

I mean, what am I even supposed to do after all that? Blood is thicker than water, man. 😁

George Lopez86 said:just one thing after last night,
really stepping in it yourself,it's gotta be a hell of a feeling.
honestly, I'm done with you people, because I'm tired of swallowing everyone else's crap every single day.
after more than twenty years, I think I've had enough.
good luck to you all.

and breakfast burritos $2.75.......

Eric Phillips52 said:Honestly, screw this protest idea, just seriously rethink things because remember that last time we tried to go up against the mob? That was a total disaster. We had maybe 200 people showing up, while there were hundreds of them out there—Armada, Demons, Cohort, Ultras... basically nobody over 50 people showed up on our side, yet Jesse Campbell is out here talking about 10,000 people filling the square, haha, yeah right, as if we were handing out free whiskey, lines of coke, and hookers to everyone.

So you think having 150 people show up at the train station isn't a fiasco???? Why even bother going to games then?? I am so sick of all this "smart" talk and constant nonsense..... why the hell are you guys posting this crap anyway when nobody is actually going to ask Eric Phillips52, Robert Cooper60, or some random guy on an American forum whether there’s going to be a protest or not....... if it happens, it happens...... and those numbers don't mean squat to us specifically....... besides, on the day of the game against Iceland, everything is set up perfectly and we all know who is going to show up, and it'll be more than any of you think....... you guys are laughing at Jesse Campbell like idiots, but he’ll probably show up to that protest with more people than we even have in the stands....... you want to know why?? Because he brings good vibes..... and anyone who isn't standing with us missed their chance and that's what landed us where we are today....... though I'll admit, singing that song might be a bit much for this crowd....... but anyway, keep talking your trash..... I'll see you out on the streets.

Jason Cook83 said:cut the crap..
nobody's actually calling you out for talking nonsense, I'm just saying you shouldn't even bother bringing it up until it actually takes effect..

by then, we're screwed.....

Samuel Morgan6 said:How did we even get to a point where we don't even care when the LA Lakers score?

Honestly, I just want to see nothing but losses for this whole private mess instead of celebrating goals... if someone had told me ten years ago that things would end up like this, I probably would've sent them straight to a psych ward in upstate New York... now we're the ones who belong there, I guess, because sticking around for this is pure madness.

William Turner28 said:this was way too obvious. honestly, I'm pretty shocked at how easily and naively people walked right into this trap. hopefully, it serves as a lesson for the future.

It’s really no shocker that people fell for that trap so blindly... and it's not even a surprise what they pulled on us in the first place... it's just that some folks refuse to listen... look, this isn't some fan rivalry or a typical stadium brawl... these guys are straight-up mafia, criminals, and cowards, and they operate exactly like that... meanwhile, we're all over here playing pretend, acting like we won't support them because it's not "ultra" enough, or worrying about what some random internet forum thinks about whether we're hardcore enough... honestly, you've gotta just disregard all that noise and fight back even more deviously and harder than they do, otherwise we don't stand a single chance... zero percent... and all this fake support being shown on these online forums? You can take that and shove it... we know damn well what the next move needs to be for all American fans and what kind of unity we need to show... if we don't step up and actually act together, then all I can say to all of us fans in this country is: screw us, because we're being nothing but hypocrites!

Jesse Campbell said:I mean, what exactly were you expecting? I’m not exactly in a leadership role where I get to call the shots on organizing stuff, but if the whole point was just hoping we'd show up together once in a while instead of having a formal plan, then I guess we got what we wanted.

I really hope this is just the start of things, because if we actually need more support down the road, I'm hoping next time involves more than just shouting chants from the stands.

Nah, I’m not just talking about yesterday's game or the big rivalry match, I mean just generally speaking... though honestly, you know how it goes, neither our crowd nor the guys over at the cargo docks are ever going to step up for anything bigger than some basic chanting... that's just the sad reality of it all... but hey, maybe a change in the wind will blow through and finally motivate people to do something for the good of the whole community.
And where did you disappear to on Friday? Or did I just totally miss you? 🤣

Jesse Campbell said:What did you think was going to happen, like we’d all be hugging it out in the streets? I honestly don't get what you were expecting here.

Look, the first step is just getting started, even if that means getting kicked in the ass to get moving...

Of course there isn't a formal plan in place, but one will definitely exist if things ever get that desperate. Though, honestly, I have a feeling we won't need one since politicians usually end up handling the heavy lifting anyway...

You really think we haven't needed to act already?? Look at how much we've been fighting against the local gangs and organized crime... what have we actually achieved together as fans?? I'll give you an answer without wasting any ink... it's been a massive, resounding nothing... and that's just the reality of it.

And just so we're clear, I wasn't expecting some big group hug or anything—nobody's looking for that—but I was hoping for something more... and if you want to be real about it, yesterday's performance didn't come close to anything meaningful.

feralpanther50 said:exactly! honestly, did you really think things were gonna shift before the big game? i mean, seriously!?
The cops are just straight up gross.

I mean, who was actually being realistic enough to believe anything would change... there isn't even any unified chanting anymore... everything has just become totally repulsive...

Jesse Campbell said:Look, I mean, it’s not like we’re all gonna stop being fans overnight or anything. Honestly, no sane person gets offended when you guys call us cowards, or when we shout the same at you. If anything, I’d be insulted if you didn't... 🙂

The main thing is just seeing that we can actually pull together and more importantly, there wasn't some massive riot like those lowlifes were praying would happen.

And with the league inspectors coming through soon, we'll see if they even bother making us coordinate our movements... ☕

First point—how exactly did we prove we can work together? Just yelling at each other from two hundred yards away without even being able to get close? That doesn't count for anything.

Second point—is it "necessary"? Man, this was necessary a long time ago... so once again, nothing really changed.

Bottom line is... we haven't achieved a damn thing and it's pretty obvious we won't... there's still no actual game plan from the fans against the mafia... unfortunately... yet you guys are still out here acting like we somehow proved ourselves yesterday.

I wouldn't go so far as to call it extreme... I mean, sure, we give it our all... at least some of us do... but look, just take a hypothetical where a thousand people show up to every single game and chip in $3.25 a month... how much money is that actually? Is that even a massive amount of cash $3.25 every month? Honestly, it’s nothing. It’s not even close to being "extreme," it’s just that people don't give a damn and they clearly don't respect the effort being put in.

John Brown30 said:🙂

I went ahead and bought it, but honestly, I just... ugh.People just don't have the cash right now.Honestly, we’re out here scraping together enough cash just to cover gas and tickets every single time we hit the road for an away game, so naturally, buying new DVDs just falls to the bottom of the priority list. 😢

I mean, honestly, I think even the Chicago Blackhawks fans need some serious disciplinary measures put in place until things actually start looking up around here. 🙂

People have plenty of cash, they’re just being total cowards, honestly—they’d much rather blow money on five beers at a local pub than actually back an original project like what WOB or any other group of die-hard supporters put together. Think about the sheer amount of time and effort that goes into this stuff; someone had to step up, leave their wife and kids behind, grab a camera, edit everything, and pull it all together... it's massive work. But people? They're just flakes, plain and simple, and that's exactly what they are. They've always got money lying around for overpriced streetwear, hitting the betting lines, or chasing whatever cheap thrills they find on the weekend, and guess what? That money comes straight from us fans. It hits the whole community, including me, because I was right there handing over my last few bucks to support the stands and the group, even though God knows I could've used that money for a lot more important things.

John Brown30 said:🙂

b. grgic, i. stimac, z. canjuga, bbb zg , they've all done that kind of work for us before ☕

I don't get why you're getting hung up on that one sentence when the whole post was about something else entirely, like it was just a passing thought meant to show that if someone actually wanted to, they could... but anyway, regarding what was highlighted 🙂 just tell me straight, do you guys have a new heavy hitter ready for the national team or what??

Look, if you can't feel the tension hanging in the air right now, then I honestly don't know what to tell you. I’m not even going to sit here and list everything that’s left unsaid because it feels pretty obvious to me, and frankly, I don't feel like getting into a massive shouting match with ten idiots over stupid technicalities just to give Zillow more work to do... and besides, if they try to block everyone, there's no way they'll actually get anyone to agree to it. It’s not like Trump's inner circle is going to go begging the cops to let us through or anything... and even if things do go south, there's always a workaround, just like what happened during the first breach... either way, it would definitely make for some interesting drama...

Samuel Brown72 said:Man, I actually had this dream last night that we drew Chicago Fire 😁

Honestly, I’m really hoping you guys pull it off... because let's be real, there's still so much lingering tension from the last time Chicago Fire played that just hasn't cleared the air yet...

If they actually manage to pull through this first qualifying round, then we can start talking.
The club just put out an official update regarding our upcoming matches, and honestly, I’m trying to stay optimistic, but you know how things go in this league. It looks like we're gearing up for some heavy lifting soon, and while I’d love to say everything is perfectly on track, there's always that nagging feeling in the back of my mind about whether we can actually maintain this momentum when the schedule gets tight. We’ve got some big matchups on the horizon, and if we don't tighten up our defensive transitions, we might find ourselves staring at some pretty disappointing results against teams that are just waiting for us to slip up. I guess all we can really do is keep our heads down, trust the process, and hope that the training sessions are actually translating into something useful on the pitch, because right now, it feels like we're walking a bit of a tightrope.

I just want one thing from you guys, provided that this information is actually legit...

jademarlin54 said:Back when I was first posting here, you had all these "respected" forum regulars spinning fairy tales about how we were basically the Barcelona of the North America, which is hilarious because whenever anyone dares to call out Jerry Jones, these guys act like it’s a direct assault on Real Madrid—especially when the Red Sox are involved. But the second it's their own backyard being picked apart, suddenly they’re all about the ethics, the management, and the whole damn system, yet they still swear up and down that Real Madrid wins the league purely on merit. It's funny how that works, isn't it? Now we've got some random forum guy stepping up to explain to us exactly why everything is perfectly fine and just the way it should be.🤷

Look, with the way the Red Sox are playing right now, it’s pretty much a lost cause, and honestly, Real Madrid doesn't even need anyone's help to walk away with the championship. Nobody is out here pretending they didn't cheat their way to titles before—we all know it, we’ve admitted it ourselves—but at this point, I just don't give a damn about the trophy anymore. With everything going down lately, the title feels completely meaningless. It doesn't even matter if it’s Jerry Jones, Mark Zuckerberg, or whatever other crooked names are running the show; it's all the same mess. We’re being total hypocrites, and frankly, we can't even look ourselves in the mirror because of it. When it comes to these issues, instead of actually doing something, we just sit there while Michael Gray94 and the rest of the old guard mock us, and we mock them right back over some stupid flag or a misunderstood sign. If we actually made a few phone calls or organized a real protest against these guys, maybe things would change, but since we just stay silent and do nothing, it really just proves we're worse than they are.

Michael Gray94 said:Honestly, we should just boycott the MLS until the final round, maybe even through the fall season if it comes to that, because this whole circus is just pointless at this point... let's just start a brand new league and let Jerry Jones and his crew run their own little show... I really don't get how people still have the energy to watch this garbage, and if you want to help the team, just buy a ticket or go hang out by the pier, forget about places like Columbus, it's all just one big scam.

And man, when we actually suggested doing something like this before, everyone just turned on us, saying we were only acting out because we were hurting and that we only cared about the mafia running the MLS since we were sitting at the top of the table, blah blah blah... I mean, I'm not saying it wouldn't be different if things hadn't gone that way, maybe... I just want to say that we're such hypocritical, selfish fans, honestly, while these crooks are basically playing us for fools... we've got much bigger enemies to worry about, yet here we are, more interested in laughing at other teams' misfortunes and cheering for some random matchups between teams like LA Galaxy or Atlanta United while these guys are straight-up mocking us and the entire league... we're pretty pathetic and honestly don't deserve anything better than this.

Keith Brown80 said:Look, we're basically on the same wavelength here 😍

Yeah, the banner is top-tier, it just needs a little tune-up since it's looking a bit worn out, but honestly, who wouldn't want one 😁

Man, that’s actually the even bigger kicker... once five years pass and it's all tattered, scorched from the flares, and just totally trashed after countless games... well, that's when that banner is really gonna mean something...

Keith Brown80 said:Man, you're killing me! 😍

I mean, it definitely isn't for me, if you catch my drift.

Don't sweat it, silverbear38, you'll be seeing him again before you know it. 😉

Man, I get it, it’s all pretty clear now—it just wasn't your day to win... we all know exactly who you're talking about. 😁Look, I know it kind of stings a little when you think about it, but honestly? Our flag is still the absolute best of the bunch.
