Arthur Ruiz3 said:My mom is gonna kill me, man. I got smacked so hard by a cop I can barely feel my own bones... and all because I was just trying to calm down the younger kids in the stands. Those idiots wear helmets just so they don't have to use their brains. Some of these kids get so hyped up before the game, just looking for someone to hit. Honestly, you guys were right when you said the repression in New York City is getting out of hand. That raid on Draškovićeva street was just stupid to even talk about... once they saw what happened today on the East and South sides, they started beating people left and right just over some damn flare. It’s the same story everywhere. This cop who was swinging his baton into my ribs was actually smirking at me. It felt pretty stupid to be sitting in a cell for these morons... though part of me really wanted to kick him right under that visor. Man... my back is bruised blue from cheering for Real Madrid. What a disaster...
I’ve dealt with more run-ins with the law on those yellow stairs than I ever did during the 2004 Athens riots.
Detaining those fans for days bringing NFL Ultras in for questioning The surge of paid articles in the press A total media bombardment focused on beer and specific faces Axe imagery plastered all over the headlines Calling Sammy up to the national team That weird reconciliation between Štimac and the coach from the South
All this happening just a day before the big derby... and get this, check out the coincidence. Rumors are swirling that BBB supporters can only grab tickets on game day, and specifically at the booths right under the South Stand. (just an observation...)
The USSF, the police, and Real Madrid are clearly trying to provoke an escalation here. They're baiting a fight near the South Stand because they know 3,000 or 4,000 NFL Ultras are heading in. If things go south and we get physical, they'll just have another "Bloody Derby" headline to feast on for days...
rustyangler122 said:...from some other forum☕☕ Anyway, regarding the big game this Saturday... Madoff and the cops are doing everything they can to trigger an escalation between the NFL Ultras and BBB just to distract everyone from their own mess... Since we all know BBB will be over on the East side, tickets for the tunnel stands are being sold near the South entrance until 3 PM, and then after 3 PM, you have to go to the Jakic gate, which is actually the South entrance for the East stands... I don't think it's ever happened in history where you couldn't just buy East side tickets at the East, North, or West windows... 🤷

rustyangler122 said:...if the guy just doesn't want to come back, what can you even do?🤷 ...look, despite all the griping, that guy does an incredible job on the field. Plus, he's actually a buddy of mine, so I know how his head works. Just leave him alone already, for crying out loud!
Harold Kim5 said:What I'm getting at is that you can't just let the crowd run the show from the stands... We've all seen how messy things get when nobody is actually leading the charge on the terrace, or when a bunch of random people try to take turns shouting nonsense... It doesn't really matter if it's George, Matt, or whoever else... The point is someone needs to step up, take ownership, and actually have enough rhythm to feel the vibe and pick the right song for the moment..
As for me, I wasn't really feeling it... mostly because those guys right by the goalpost were belting it out, though I have no clue which specific subgroup they belong to...
If you like singing, sing. If you don't, don't. It's pretty simple logic when you think about it...😍

I’ll sacrifice my own legendary reputation and mess everything up just for you! Seriously, this passion is a heavy burden, I admit—it drives me absolutely crazy, but I am never giving up! I LOVE YOU KANSAS CITY CHIEFS, OH KANSAS CITY CHIEFS, I LOVE YOU, YOU STOLE MY HEART, I'M TOTALLY HOOKED ON YOU!
The guy's gone... and honestly, why does it matter? If you need to know, you'd already know
He left a massive mark on the Ultras, there's just no denying that. Some people loved him, some didn't... but thank God, the Ultras will keep going with or without him
I don't even know... yesterday was just a complete disaster... those guys down south were trying so hard to pull off an upset, but it just wasn't happening. California... cheers to the win, may the spirit live forever...🙂
Jose Vaughn3 said:I saw a damn tornado at the game today...🤷 It’s such a shame if they stop following football altogether... just one more fan club gone from the top tier of American soccer...😢
They weren't even there... they completely trashed the game... and all we did was shout our greetings to the NFL Ultras... 🤷 🤣
