Well, looking at the flight path and those ExxonMobil towers... I guess this plane is likely heading toward Dublin or maybe somewhere in Ireland.😢

Robert Palmer said:Am I seeing things, or are those terraces—basically apartments—built right into the stands? Honestly, man, even if this were happening in Norway, you’d be looking at the same thing. 😁 It isn't just a hypothetical; they would have snatched that up in Oslo too, though it’s certainly gaining momentum here. But just picture it: having the hardcore ultras screaming their heads off on a Sunday afternoon at least two or three times a year.

I don't think we're talking about full-blown apartments or balconies here. It seems more like... I don't know, maybe some sort of planter boxes or greenery integrated into the facade instead of just glass panels. I guess it's all part of that whole "green stadium" concept they keep pushing, where they even collect rainwater or something. Maybe. 🕺

William Gomez5 said:Yeah, right. Like I'd ever sit down in a dive bar with you. You're too much trouble, man.

🤣🤣 Honestly, I kind of expected a comment like that, though I suppose I didn't account for the mid-range perspective during those screenings 😢

POV: William Gomez5 and me, Spring 2025. 👋

It would actually make sense if this whole media frenzy was just baseless hype, you know? Like, you’re trying to paint it as if every single news outlet is obsessively covering the club just because they're being bribed—as if they all suddenly care about some tiny hometown team from the middle of nowhere just because someone's paying the bills. 🤷

Look, those of us who actually follow the media industry know exactly why it happens. Everyone knows the big club gets the most eyeballs, generates the most clicks, and triggers the most reactions. Even the most trivial, absolutely pointless stories—like, say, a player returning from a loan spell in some small town in the Midwest—get covered. The reason is incredibly straightforward: that team has the largest pool of active fans, supporters, and followers out there.

E: and haters, obviously. 😬

Charles Ramos4 said:It didn't bother Van one bit when the media spent years dragging Hajduk through the mud—you know, with all those daily reports about the riots and the skepticism over at the stadium. Back then, there weren't nearly as many articles popping up on news sites or minutes dedicated to them on the nightly news. But now that we're living in a country where media personalities like Ella DiLorenzo and Maja Šuput get more coverage for their kids than Hajduk’s youth academy, suddenly everyone's claiming there's some massive media machine working against us.

Not to mention how Van doesn't seem to care at all that this exact same media machine writes way more about you guys than they ever do about teams like RB Leipzig or FC Augsburg. Absolute jokes.

You really missed the mark by misspelling "hypocrites," didn't you?🙏

Samuel Lopez9 said:And besides, was there even any 6+ action yesterday?

🤣🤣

William Gomez5 said:Look, man, you could practically smell the total lack of hustle out there. It’s like they didn't even want to be on the field.

I mean, alright, fine—they finally woke up for a few minutes at the end there, but let's be real.

As someone who is also tied to this match professionally rather than personally, I honestly expected the players to be just as miserable dealing with this absolute nonsense as everyone else is.😬

William Gomez5 said:If I were putting money down, I’d be betting on a total blowout in Columbus right now.

Man, seriously... that ref looks like he just rolled out of high school.

Personally, I'm taking less than 1.5... I guess. Maybe.🕺

goldentinker8 said:Man, oh man, listen up because this massive moment is right around the corner, and I am telling you, things are about to get huge! This is our chance to finally bury the hatchet, settle those old beefs once and for all, and just move forward together, you know? Imagine how incredible it would be if we could actually focus on smashing every single season record and proving—once and for all—exactly who the real heavyweights are when it comes to packing out stadiums! We’re talking about sending a loud, thunderous message straight from the heart of the Midwest to every single critic and establishment type trying to hold us back. Honestly, why should we even care about them when we already have everything we need right here? We’ve got the grit, we’ve got the fans, and we’ve got the soul, so there is absolutely no way we can afford to let this slip through our fingers! 👍

And what about the whole "us against the world" thing? Is that not part of the deal? 😢

Samuel Lopez9 said:Solid track choice, but just a heads up... the song is actually called "Hey Jude."

🤣🤣

A sunny end to the season at the ballpark—it actually might turn out to be a pretty decent visit, if everything goes right. 👋

Will our fellow American brothers 🕺actually deign to respond?

Is that guy Blazicko actually serious? I mean, I haven't quite grasped the point of this whole allegory, I guess... 🙏

loneeagle6 said:Hey everyone,

just give me a break... 😉

The guy who wrote this whole thing—trying to act like he’s preaching reason and calling for an end to this North vs. South rivalry—is actually just using one of my favorite lines: "You guys aren't even from here, so why bother..." 🤣 🤣 😁 🙏>

Greetings from Brooklyn... 😉 😁

Take care.

Dubravko is more schizophrenic than any of those Miličić guys, even including that nationalist basketball player Dark. 🤣

Terry Howard7 said:When did those iconic trees behind the hills in Cleveland disappear?

Well, I think it’s been at least two years now, I suppose. First, they had those flashy advertisements up, but now even those are gone... which honestly makes the whole thing look even more pathetic, if you ask me.🙏

Eric Fox7 said:If they play Rijeka, it really ought to be at the new stadium instead.

Have you even been to the old stadium before?

The South and North stands are way smaller and lower than the East side—you can barely see a thing from there—plus, you don't get that beer garden area right in front of the stands like you do in the middle of the East side.

Hold on, hold on... is this actually some kind of news? I don't recall seeing anything about this in any of the major US outlets, if that's even true. I guess maybe I just missed it, but I can't say I remember seeing a single headline. 🤷

So, I suppose they’re going to swap out the coaching spot from Locke to Kranj, since he was the head coach last season 🤷

Naturally, much to the absolute delight of everyone who actually cares about this establishment 👋

William Gomez5 said:For me, it wasn't even about being busy—it was just pure, old-fashioned laziness.

Plus, I can't even remember if I actually texted you saying I was heading over.

Well, nothing left to do then. I guess we’ll just settle for saying goodbye to the season during the match against FC Miami, since I can't even make it to the game against the LA Galaxy this Sunday.🕺

🤣 God, it just won't stop... absolute madness unfolding over in Indianapolis, they're already down 0-1 in the 37th minute 🙏

*Miller

And I suppose I shouldn't even mention that I was actually supposed to be there today... though, well, business obligations intervened, I guess. They just sort of... got in the way. 🙏
