Jose Lopez9 said:I mean, who else is there left to talk to? Everything is pretty obvious at this point! But honestly, in fifteen years, nobody is going to be asking about who funded what or who didn't anymore. This season is going to be incredibly tough for you guys. They’re operating at "full throttle," as they say, while you're all just stuck watching from the sidelines... I suppose it’s time to go all in or nothing at all. Though, I guess I'm just shouting into the void of an online forum here. 🙂

Peter Robinson21 said:I honestly don't know who you are, but if we have met before, then you probably know I've always been the type of guy to march to the beat of my own drum; I’ve never really been one to just drift along with the crowd... back when there was the Boycott... I was actually one of the first people to stand up for everyone else, even though most people around me—and I mean the majority of folks I knew who ended up moving out East—were telling me, "Man, this is just foolishness." But, well, I suppose one goes along with a boycott... fast forward a year later, and everyone can see that the boycott didn't achieve a single thing... I remember saying back in June of that year, "Look, the boycott hasn't brought anything to the table, maybe we need to try a different path"... and that’s when the threats started coming at me, things like, "You're against us," or "You're against the association," and so on... all I said was, "It didn't work, let's try something else"... which led to the group deciding in August that "the boycott is over" and it was time to start going to games again... some people thought we should only go to MLS matches, while others argued we should attend every single game... personally, I decided to just head out with the same crew I've been going to matches with for twenty years... if one goes, they all go... so there I am, standing in the stands at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid, surrounded by a bunch of guys I know who acted like they were part of the boycott during the Champions League (even though they were still showing up to Champions League and EL matches while I stayed home during the boycott period itself)...QUOTE]

You and EVERYONE else like you—the ones who kept showing up to games during the boycott, whether it was MLS or European matches—are absolute bottom-feeders. That includes both the ones who made themselves known and those who tried to hide. You are truly a disgrace of human beings. Can you even look yourselves in the mirror knowing you turned your backs on the group? You spat in the faces of your comrades and sided with the very people trying to shut down the Bad Boys. And yet, you still have the nerve to stand in the North Stand acting all neutral. Honestly, what a massive collection of morally bankrupt individuals.

... if you haven't read carefully, I didn't go to any games during the boycott period... but since you're so incredibly bright, I went ahead and bolded that part just for you... perhaps you missed it, or maybe you just weren't reading properly... so yeah...

And if those who hid are such huge pieces of trash, then maybe you should just head out East and say that to their faces, because some of them are still living right among you...

analogheron19 said:You’re being ridiculous.
I asked you how many times you’ve been arrested in recent years just trying to make it to a game. I’m not talking about any legal trouble or anything—just a straight-up attempt to show up for my favorite club.
You really picked the wrong person to talk down to. Up until now, I’ve tolerated some of your nonsense because, regardless of our differences, I’ve given you a pass on pretty much everything, but from here on out, you’re officially on my radar.

analogheron19 said:You didn't answer my question, so I’m asking you again: how many times have you been arrested while entering the stadium or traveling abroad in recent years, and how many citations did you rack up?
Of course, there are millions of clubs where ownership changes hands and fans stay loyal, but I don't think there is a single case where a club does everything in its power—including illegal things—to destroy the private and professional lives of its own supporters. Where they selectively leak clips, incite local clubs and domestic police against them, or where customs officials personally call ambassadors of the countries we play in and threaten them if they help their own citizens in any way. There isn't a single stadium in the world where home fans endure this kind of torture, where people are arrested just for sitting in the wrong seats, where hundreds of people are blacklisted without a valid reason, or where fans on their own terrace are surrounded by cordons of riot police. Where players are punished not if they fail to greet their fans, but specifically because they *do* greet them... there isn't a single club in the world that defends its legends from being banned just because those legends advocated for following the law or allowing members to exercise their legal rights...
By tomorrow, you could probably write an entire thesis on the anomalies involving the former leadership, but by heading north, you are actually supporting everything mentioned above.

Henry Grant51 said:Peter Robinson21, you’re actually a decent guy, we’ve known each other for quite a long time now, having experienced several matches and away trips together.
I really don't understand what you need all this for, these kinds of arguments and posts.
When I saw your photos from San Francisco, I had to look twice because I wasn't sure if I was seeing things correctly.

Aaron Parker70 said:Well, why shouldn't we? People really need to have their eyes opened on this one.
Maybe you'd rather tell us all about how those demons are out there hitting people in Munich instead.

Robert Wood5 said:Munich,
you claim to support Dinamo—and hey, it doesn't hurt as much as it used to, but you're a supporter... You don't celebrate losses, and you certainly aren't going to mock us for freaking out over losing to Austria or that 3000-person crowd against Kyiv, right?
.....
A few questions for you:
Dinamo plays a friendly against Čukarički next Saturday; will you be rooting for them then?
Will you still be celebrating ten days from now if Dinamo loses to Rennes in the Champions League qualifiers?

I’m asking, please, keep it short and sweet. No mentioning the East, the North, paid players, political parties, or turning your back on friends, etc.

gentlemarlin102 said:you know what I’m getting sick of? these two-faced idiots...

It’s all great, right? We should cheer for Los Angeles FC, regardless of whether Zdravko Mamić runs the show or not. We need to support the club and the players, because I guess Zdravko Mamić will eventually move on anyway... "management and players come and go, it's just Los Angeles FC and US"

But, well, you know what happens next? A match against LA Galaxy rolls around... and then these "anti-fans" show up, people who actually root against this version of Los Angeles FC (of course, because they are the destroyers of everything and basically the biggest bunch of communist trash 🙄 ), and then you have guys like you, who claim to support Los Angeles FC with all your heart and can't wait to clear the qualifiers just so you can travel through Europe, attend home matches in the big leagues (for the sake of the dollar, I suppose) and take selfies for Facebook...

And then, oh well, we get knocked out of the tournament... suddenly the players who used to receive massive support are called cowards, and the coaches become targets for ridicule... tickets are way too expensive, and the response is always, "I guess I won't bother going to the game until they improve..."
"It's just Los Angeles FC and us?"

Do you know who is actually the only one left? Do you know who goes to away games and gets treated and scrutinized like some high-level terrorist? Do you know who takes all the heat, who loses their jobs, who ends up in jail, pays the fines, and so on...? Do you know who isn't even allowed to properly support their own club at their own stadium? Do you know who gets surrounded by two lines of police plus one or two rows of officers like they're Al-Qaeda, ETA, and ISIS all merged together trying to destroy the world? Do you know who has their tickets searched and is held up for ages just because they aren't standing in their specific section in an empty stadium?

It's just Los Angeles FC and US.... ☕

Everyone wants it to be wonderful and perfect, everyone wants to give their support, but clearly, it isn't quite so wonderful and perfect...

Dennis Davis97 said:Look, Bmk, I don't really care how many matches you've sat through. Honestly, I have nothing to do with your club. I just find it incredibly frustrating seeing people like you constantly sticking your noses where they don't belong, trying to dictate the lives of guys who actually live here in the city and deal with the daily grind... while you big-shot Americans just fly in a few times a year to act like you know everything. And then there's this guy Pero you're talking about—who exactly is he supposed to be intimidating? He's hardly an imposing figure, is he?

Jesse Campbell said:The club was ruined by Mamić, not us (certainly not those of us from the North). You might be able to explain why a small number of BBB supporters are missing—though that’s mostly just a result of police pressure and Mamić’s own crackdowns—but how on earth do you explain having 300 or 400 people showing up at the West Stand during the title celebration against our biggest rivals?

Egotrips? I mean, maybe by traveling to Madrid while the boycott was happening, you actually showed that you consider yourself more important than the group itself?

Look, we don't all have to think alike, I suppose. But if you don't agree with the majority, perhaps it’s better to just step aside rather than working against the group and the core idea. 🙂

As for the gravediggers, I guess I agree. Some of them really have become just like them. ☕

Dennis Davis97 said:Honestly, I'm just totally fed up with these people living abroad trying to dictate how we should handle our lives here... you guys aren't us, and frankly, you never will be...

Dennis Davis97 said:It seems somewhat symptomatic, if you ask me, that the ones talking the most trash in the style of Peter Robinson21 are precisely those who rarely show up to the stadium. I mean, I don't know if anyone ever actually decided from the stands whether goals should be celebrated or not, but personally, soccer has just become distasteful to me over the last three years—that includes Mamić's management agency running all over the pitch...

analogheron19 said:I'll just ask you one thing... do you actually support that pamphlet being published as the latest "history" of the Bad Boys on those so-called fan club websites?
Please give me a straight answer.

Raymond Gonzalez7 said:To me, people like you are the absolute worst. You claim everyone is the same, but that isn't true. Everyone responsible for us ending up in this mess is currently sitting in the exact same boat. Both the mercenaries and those who were originally calling them out as mercenaries are essentially in the same position now. Over on the East Side, there wasn't anyone actually leading the charge while all this traitorous trash was fighting amongst themselves from the sidelines. If there was anyone capable of taking charge, they either left long ago or are just standing by watching. And now, you suddenly show up out of nowhere and tell us we're all one and the same. I mean, where were you for the last five years if you think you have the right to say something like that?

bluebear42 said:Maybe if you're so over the North and East sides, you should just head West then.🤣
If this is your Real Madrid, I guess why are you even bothering to support the wrong club right now?

Douglas Barnes15 said:I suppose you don't really know what you're talking about anymore... but I'll ask you one more time... what have you actually heard from people who are far away from the North!?

driftingranger65 said:The people you're standing next to in the stands? Well, until pretty recently, they were practically throwing flares at each other and bashing heads in with telescopes. Total idiots.

Jacob Price23 said:So, I guess you could say I’ve completely shifted my tune all of a sudden? I suppose I should explain how that happened. It wasn't exactly a planned maneuver, if that makes sense. Maybe I just felt like the previous direction wasn't quite hitting the mark anymore, or perhaps the wind just changed. I'm still figuring out the exact reasoning myself, really. It feels like a bit of a pivot, though I'd prefer to think of it as a necessary adjustment to the current circumstances. I guess we'll see where this new path leads us.

I suppose I should probably address this situation, though I’m not entirely sure if it warrants such a deep dive. It seems there is some ongoing discussion regarding the recent developments within the league, and I find myself wondering about the implications for the upcoming season. Perhaps it is a bit premature to draw conclusions, but one can't help but notice certain patterns emerging. I was reading some thoughts from Jesse Campbell earlier, and while his perspective is certainly interesting, I feel like he might be overlooking a few key variables. Then again, maybe I am just being overly cautious. There is a certain level of uncertainty that seems to permeate the current discourse, which I find somewhat perplexing, yet strangely engaging. It is almost like watching a slow-motion replay where you know the outcome, but you still find yourself squinting at the screen to see exactly how the contact was made. Anyway, I guess what I am trying to say is that things are shifting. It feels a bit unsettled, much like the atmosphere in Chicago during a particularly unpredictable summer storm. One moment everything seems steady, and the next, you're bracing for impact. I don't mean to ramble, but it feels important to acknowledge that we are all navigating these changes together, even if our interpretations of them differ quite significantly. We shall see how it unfolds, I suppose.

William Kim said:Are the guys from the East fighting for everything you believe in? Are the guys from the North fighting for everything you despise? You just sit there up North and talk trash about them down East. Maybe I’m just being thick, but I don't really get it.

Matthew Martinez64 said:this guy from Vienna is honestly one of the biggest pieces of trash I’ve ever encountered. I mean, he’d probably sell his own mother for a hundred bucks. Just yesterday he was trashing N/A and N/A, and now suddenly he's acting like some "friend from the stands."
well, I suppose he’s really just an insignificant character who shows up to a game maybe once a season.
