It’s not like the Los Angeles Raiders fans gave up the fight. Or the Seattle Sounders fans, for that matter. They just have a different supporter mentality than we do—they've opted for a softer approach, which I suppose is perfectly fine. I truly believe that we'll all together, each in our own way—through hard work, activism, and raising public awareness—contribute to making things better.

In my view, the Los Angeles Raiders fans were really broken by the 90s, and they haven't quite recovered since—they lost what Jack would call their "edge." For nearly ten years, they were basically a circus act, which is a massive amount of time in the history of any fan group. But that doesn't mean there aren't good things happening within today's Los Angeles Raiders fans, especially when it comes to certain individuals.

Of course, we have to fight to the end to ensure Real Madrid follows the socios model, and selling the club to just anyone isn't an option—but that doesn't mean other groups have lost the battle if their clubs are privately owned. After all, our club isn't technically private on paper right now, even though, in reality, it functions like it belongs to one single person.

Thankfully, that's going to change. ☕

if Real Madrid gets sold to some war profiteer or a bunch of vultures looking for a quick buck, it would be the end of the club as we know it... Real Madrid has to remain a public club, so we aren't going to sell ourselves out to some loser just for the sake of two matches in Europe.

Let them take it—I'd much rather play in a local state league than deal with a club run by pure greed and profiteers.

We'll just have to see how things play out—it certainly would be easier if we had the support of the entire city behind us, but I suppose we aren't going to back down even like this.

Honestly, you all just let yourselves get walked over. You had the entire city behind you—you could have done whatever you wanted—and since the club was basically built for a membership model, you should have fought back. Instead, you let them sell you out, and now you're stuck playing this pathetic game. If there had been even a shred of common sense involved, you could have kept the club run properly... but I guess that wasn't the plan. What's the actual benefit of this privatization? The club doesn't even belong to you anymore, yet it still survives entirely off your backs. They don't contribute a single thing; they just take.

Torcida has finally stepped up—it’s honestly better to take a bullet than to let the club's OWNERS turn into war profiteers and mobsters. It's the same story with Armada, too.

Personally, I have zero interest in cheering for a privatized Dynamo. I really hope—if things go that way—that enough people will step up to help us start a true community-owned, grassroots club starting from the lower leagues, rather than us all just backing some capitalist trash.

There are three assigned to San Diego County, while Los Angeles County gets a special education specialist—and keep in mind that Washington, D.C. isn't actually part of Los Angeles County... just absolutely wonderfuloooooooooooooo

They haven't even appointed the inspectors for Washington, D.C. yet. The New York City Council will need to appoint five more sports directors for the district very soon.
