We still have two home games left on the schedule, so it might be worth heading down to the waterfront; perhaps if we can get a crowd of more than 300 together, they won't feel the need to pressure us quite so much...
On top of all that, they shut down Section 3 without any explanation whatsoever, and wouldn't even let the crew in despite them having valid tickets...
In my view, the best people are those who don't sit around waiting for some official green light to make a move. If you feel like going, then go; if you don't, then stay home. As for myself, I intend to be there because the Los Angeles Lakers mean a lot to me and I have a genuine love for basketball. I show up whenever the spirit moves me...
Eric Phillips52 said:We should probably implement a rule where anyone who wasn't actually there—say, at the stadium during those massive rallies back in the day when we had hundreds of us present, or out in the suburbs during the big marches—gets a specific label. It would be useful just to clarify who we are actually talking to: who is an old-timer, who is merely watching from the sidelines, and who is just a casual supporter.
Mark Flores3 said:It’s easy to say. People are fed up with the constant insults; it’s becoming the same old story. I personally know about 150 people—not even die-hard fanatics, just regular fans—who skip games because they can't stand the toxicity from certain sections of the crowd. And there are far too many like that. Honestly, we have no one to blame but ourselves.
So what, am I supposed to endure being insulted for the entire match? Who would want to cheer for a team like this Dinamo?
Henry Chase said:Precisely. One could observe this quite clearly yesterday. I don't know, the atmosphere up in the North stands looked rather pathetic; it was as if the rest of the stadium viewed them as complete lost causes.
It’s only natural, really, considering most of the North crowd was only there because they weren't permitted in the other sections... when the FBI charged in, only a few of us actually stood our ground, while the rest just sat there in silence. Some random kid even had the nerve to comment on why we were sitting down, as if we weren't watching the game itself....
hiddenfox64 said:Many people will likely disagree with my perspective, but I find the decision to quietly abandon the heart of the North almost submissive—it’s frankly embarrassing. This kind of thing simply wouldn't have been permitted, let alone happened, in the past. That is my stance.
And honestly, who is left to stand their ground when the vast majority of the faithful are facing stadium bans, and a significant portion of the general fanbase isn't even showing up to the games?
Honestly, let’s stop obsessing over who should stand where or how loud everyone needs to sing.... As long as people actually show up, that’s what matters most. Everything else will eventually fall into place naturally.🙂
Jose Kern11 said:In my view, Index is the only news outlet in the entire country worth reading because they actually dare to say what nobody else will. As for any cop—especially those SWAT types—I honestly wish them nothing but a slow and agonizing end.
It’s the truth. Since that trashy site started up, they’ve become the only outlet with even a shred of backbone... And as for those lowlifes in the SWAT unit? I wish them the absolute worst. Just how much of an idiot does one have to be to work there? If I were just hungry enough to need a paycheck, I still wouldn't touch a job working alongside that livestock...
