Except for when we were playing hardball recently. It was just like those other big "democracies"—you know, places like the UK, Austria, Luxembourg, or the Netherlands—where they folded under pressure from some cheap politicians because criminals, killers, and terrorists need to be harassed and thrown in jail...
it's funny, though. Only the guys over in Lithuania and Ukraine actually told those damn cops to back off and let our guys play the games.☕

The only way forward is through the media—media, media, and more media. We need to flood every single news outlet and digital portal with links about Mamic and those crooked cops who act as his personal security detail. It’s common knowledge they guarantee everything for them; they fix the fines, wipe away bans, handle the shady job placements, secure the venues... it's all rigged.
Seriously, you're screwed if you turned your back on the press.

First off, Mommy is going to take a massive hit if he starts getting linked to axes, guns, and all that other violent stuff...

rustybison11 said:Why delete it? Just because I told the truth? Historically, the Bad Boys never gave a damn about public opinion, the media, random internet trolls, playing fancy possession football, or political expectations. Everything changed just a few years ago when you lot embraced this "play it smart" ideology, which really just spiraled into a total inability to actually solve problems with any radical force or grit. I’d bet anything that 90% of you posting here wouldn't even have the guts to look Mamić in the eye. You'd probably just mumble something about tactical positioning under your breath and scurry away.

All five points might be true, but you can't claim to be a warrior when you're hiding behind an anonymous handle where nobody knows who you actually are.

boldtrucker19 said:15 years ago, you had a core group of maybe 7 to 10 heavy hitters actually getting things done. Then you’ve got the extended circle of about 30 people who only show up when things hit the fan, while everyone else just sits around watching, complaining, and wasting time while the real work happens.

If you're looking for an argument, a fight, or some serious drama, my inbox is wide open.

Like a few people have already pointed out: the turnout today was exactly equal to the number of Bad Boys currently active. Everyone who showed up actually gives a damn about this group, cares about the guys who are out there putting their bodies on the line, and wants to keep pushing those crowds from the North Side...
We all expected a bigger crowd, I get it. But if we’re being honest with ourselves, this is it. This is the core—the actual nucleus of the group that truly gives a shit. Once we start treating the stands like we treat a pickup game of street soccer, once we can breathe easy without that gut-wrenching tension you feel at an intense NFL stadium, once that constant anxiety about clashing with thugs disappears, and once we’re playing for the pure joy of seeing our team win and actually feeling connected to the players and the club again... then, and only then, will the numbers explode.

There’s already a specific thread dedicated to "fans and politics," so I’m asking you nicely to please take that energy over there.

boldtiger7 said:Honestly, this is the only place on the internet where you can take a tiny little fly and somehow blow it up into a massive, lumbering elephant. 🤣

You basically just took the words right out of my mouth.
This whole mess started over some incredibly trivial complaint about a photography ban. Honestly, you couldn't find a more pointless grievance if you tried. Blowing this entire situation out of proportion and stirring up this massive drama over such absolute nonsense is pure idiocy. If it weren't so pathetic, it might actually be funny.
Who knows how many more times I'm going to have to shut down these pointless arguments.

Jesse Campbell said:Look, fine. We can try to be nice about it and tell people that if they actually want to film, they should just head over to the opposing section to do it. There’s zero point in filming your own stands while you’re sitting in them; you’ll get way better shots and video from the other side anyway.

Standing right in the middle of the fan section filming with your phone like some lost tourist is just stupid. You're basically just being a nuisance to everyone else trying to enjoy the game. Makes sense, right?

Obviously. It’s common sense, and most people get that. As for the ones who don't? They'll figure it out eventually, so no big deal.

lonepuma9 said:There’s an official group forum for all that kind of stuff.

Then why the hell is everyone here getting so worked up and attacking people who are just calmly stating their opinions? People are genuinely trying to help out with advice and suggestions, but if you’re just going to brush everything off as irrelevant, then fine—just ignore what's written and leave everyone alone. Every time someone posts something on this pointless site, people immediately start foaming at the mouth. You get mobs, SMS chains, phone calls... it’s like a full-blown mobilization, as if the Raiders just rolled into town.
It practically turns into a lynching atmosphere just because someone had the nerve to share a viewpoint.
Honestly, you get more tolerance on those partisan message boards than you do here.
Does someone have to be part of the inner circle to be right? Do you have to be in the chat 24/7 just to be allowed to speak?
People need to realize this is a public forum where anyone can express themselves as long as they aren't being abusive or making threats.
Folks might not have the guts to say something to someone's face in person, but that doesn't mean they should get insulted or threatened just because they posted it anonymously here.
A little more tolerance and respect—both in the stands and on the forums—wouldn't hurt anybody.
At the end of the day, we're all on the same side anyway.

Daniel Carter9 said:Don't get mad at me, but honestly, most of you guys on this thread are losing it, with a few exceptions.

Since this whole project kicked off, there hasn't been a single incident. Not one issue with the cops, security, officials, delegates, the media, or the league. Nobody has seen a single problem in the last three games, yet here we are, a week later, whining about a flag and two instances where someone was told in the stands not to take photos. I'm telling you, you all have lost touch with reality. You’re either being malicious or just plain crazy; there isn't a third option. There isn't even a shred of respect for the massive group of people pushing this forward on a volunteer basis. Instead, you're using this forum to spread negativity and obsess over some guard giving someone a dirty look. I genuinely can't wrap my head around it. Meanwhile, other groups—both here and globally—hide much worse stuff, but when it comes to the Bad Boys, every tiny mistake or minor hiccup has to be blasted on the forum. It’s not normal. It doesn't matter if it's the "back to basics" crowd or the folks who think security should be filming the stands to correct mistakes; it's pathological to make such a public spectacle out of everything, regardless of where it's coming from.

At the end of the day, this whole thing won't be ruined by the police, the league, or anyone else. It'll be sabotaged by small-minded people who can't show up in person to say what's bothering them.

Los Angeles FC was designed to be an alternative to the New York City FC camp and the circus found in other sports. We're going to be searching for balance constantly, and sure, people are going to mess up. But does it really hurt your soul to engage in this kind of anti-propaganda just because two security guards asked people not to film in the stands? What is wrong with you? There are two other sections on the side; go film your movies there. The supporter section is for cheering, and it looks ridiculous when everyone is busy filming. That's it. Period. Where is the damn problem, and why are you making it up? It's pathetic.

And Tom, with all due respect, you're letting any old garbage be posted here, allowing this nonsense to spread like Ebola.

Look, I believe certain things can be corrected through the forum if they can't be handled any other way. I believe people can realize things here, or that good-faith advice can be heard if it's shared online. I believe I have the right to voice my opinion here when there's no other outlet, and since I'm stubborn and thick-headed, I'm going to stick to that right regardless of what anyone thinks.
It's a shame that instead of taking honest, well-intentioned advice, everyone just jumps down my throat instead of accepting it so we can move forward together.
And no, I haven't listed the most extreme examples of mindless strictness, so please, stop trying to police my words.
Like I said, the advice is given in good faith. I'm sure some will take it, and if we all act smarter, we can move toward more wins.

Not a single soul raised an eyebrow about anything actually important.
There were a few complaints about wasting time on unnecessary drills, but that was pretty much it.
If people actually listened to good-faith advice—which they really should—this whole back-and-forth wouldn't have even lasted three posts.
If anyone has a suggestion, the most logical thing is to just take it. You shouldn't kick up a massive fuss and start insulting everyone like they’re some bottom-of-the-barrel losers who don't matter at all.
I'm confident everyone got their point across, and that legitimate advice will be taken on board. Period.
Let's move on. EVERYONE IN ORLANDO!!!!

Nicholas Watson said:I’m not losing my cool just because nobody bothered to answer my original question before it got wiped

So, I’ll just restate it here—slightly tweaked and without all the extra noise, if possible.

Am I really the only one who heard the Army of Quaish wheezing? 🤷
And why is there absolutely zero mention of it anywhere else? 🤷

If everyone decided to latch onto half a sentence and start lecturing me about it, that's on them. I was just answering. And don't even get me started on the insults. I sent a private message to one of those "Sleeping Beauties" over at the Democratic Party, and instead of getting an answer, I'm being harassed and insulted right here.
Is it actually a crime to have a different perspective now, or are we sliding back into some kind of fascist mindset?

John is the only one who gave a sane response. He’s the only one you can actually debate with using logic instead of just shouting empty slogans.

To wrap this up with you: go ahead and bow down to the FBI and Charlie. I'm sure they'll welcome you with open arms, listen to your every word, and probably hand you a trophy while they're at it. Amen.

Nicholas Watson said:coming from someone who was clearly "asleep at the wheel"🐔

you completely embarrassed yourself

hey Nicholas, did you get all that out of your system?

As long as they’re capturing that atmosphere—which, let's be honest, is absolutely electric—it serves as incredible promotion for the indoor soccer scene, the squad, the fans... the whole damn project.
Every single article, every photo, every bit of positive buzz surrounding what's happening in the league is a massive win, not some kind of anchor dragging us down.
Of course, we all know exactly what they aren't filming and why they're being so selective about it but look, if we've finally reached a point where people are actually following the rules, then forcing everyone to train specifically for the camera crew isn't just pointless—it’s actively working against us.
People aren't filming out of spite; they do it because they're hyped by the energy. Whether it's for themselves or to share that vibe with someone else, they want to make sure those moments are preserved forever.

Joshua Moore31 said:Look, there's always a crowd of people who just don't want their faces popping up in photos or videos. You can't really control the mainstream media outlets, but you definitely have some leverage over those self-proclaimed "freelance" camera guys hanging out in the stands.

What do you mean you can't influence the press? There shouldn't even be an entry point for them if they're just looking for quick shots. What's the damn point?
Either bar them from entering entirely, or start confiscating phones at the gate for anyone who isn't officially credentialed.

It’s a shame, really. Once we get that adrenaline pumping, our energy as a duo is going to be on a whole different level.😁

It isn't too late to rally the troops and get a bigger crowd showing up.
Our job is to make sure the average attendance at indoor soccer is at least double what we see at the stadium.☕
