The property damage is only a few thousand bucks. 🤣🤣🤣

At this rate, our El Paso would be worth at least double.😁

I might actually listen if some guy from the Midwest tried to lecture us on how to cheer, but when those clowns from the East Side—who think they’re God's gift to football just because they shout "get lost" and obsess over everything black while half-assing their way through some pathetic "we'll win together" bullshit—start acting like experts on fan culture, it’s honestly laughable. It's a joke.🙂 Not to mention there were barely 500 of you there, which is a total embarrassment...

Honestly, I couldn't care less about Ljubljana. The stands need to be taken over by Slaven; anything else is just a waste of my damn time.🙂

They don't have a clue what they're doing. Seriously, just leave it alone until your card expires. Once it's done, you'll have to swing by the Chase branch to pick up the new one, and they MIGHT ask to see some ID or your student ID, but honestly, they usually just glance at it without even opening the file. You don't even need to be an active student; you just need to have that ID in your hand.😁

Alilovic is statistically tied for 9th among keepers in save percentage, but he’s actually NUMBER ONE in total saves with 97 under his belt. Li-La is riding with Landin, who sits at 8th in percentage and holds the second-highest total with 90 saves.
If you just strip away those guys sitting at the top of the table solely because they’ve played way too few games, you’ll see that Mickey is easily a top 3 keeper in this whole tournament.🙂
If we had even a couple more players performing at that kind of level, we would’ve walked away with the gold, regardless of how much the coaching staff completely botched the tactics.

Look, whether people like him or not, the guy did his job at an elite level. Yeah, sure, there were mistakes—he let in some Pacers goals—but he also pulled off some absolute monster saves. All things considered, he put together nine seriously impressive performances.🙂I can only hope he plays at this exact same level during the next tournament...

Jerry Myers19 said:People have been talking about this on here a million times already—how Americans get totally worked up and lose their mindswhenever they have to play a game in Mexico👍

I went ahead and fixed your post for you.😉

redpuma49 said:Maybe it’d be better if we just mailed the gold straight to the French before every tournament starts. That way, they don't even have to show up.🙄

Seriously. The only people with a massive inferiority complex toward the French are the trolls on this damn forum. If our actual players are lurking here reading these posts, then it’s no wonder we’re getting smoked by the French before the warm-ups are even over.

Like I said before the game even started, picking a harder bracket isn't the tragedy here. The real tragedy is killing yourself on the field for a game that doesn't even matter in the grand scheme of things.🙂 The players are completely spent. We’re seeing a massive wave of "mechanical" injuries, and we probably lost Štrlek too, and for what exactly?🤷
When you actually sit down and look at the facts, you realize that having a "tougher" draw is the least of our problems... But hey, as long as we get to feel proud and beat our chests about how we're more righteous than the Pope himself, right?🙂

When people talk about how nobody’s actually going to hunt for a win... well, a 0-0 draw works just fine for us.😁
Seriously though, just picture a stadium packed with Spaniards, absolutely riding high on pure ego because they’ve been steamrolling everyone with huge point spreads lately. You really think in that kind of atmosphere they aren't going to come out swinging for a win against us—a team that’s beaten them 73 times out of our last 75 matchups? Yeah, right. Not happening.🙂 We don't even need to go out there and mess with them or mock them; honestly, it’s enough if we just chill, stay sharp, rotate the squad, and play smart without overextending ourselves. Everything else will just fall into place naturally...

Even if we do pull off a win, it’s not exactly a brilliant move. It’s a decision that doesn't make much sense—not just because of the bracket, but more importantly because of the fatigue, the risk of injuries, and all that other crap that always catches up to you when you intentionally choose the hard way...

Hang out this Saturday, Dec 1st, at the Bad Boys clubhouse for dinner. Every single cent from the drinks goes straight toward fighting back against police repression!!! EVERYONE IS INVITED!!!

Better bring some black envelopes to stash the cash in, then carry them over to San Francisco the next day.🙂 April wasn't even that bad, but I'll drop the cash just for the hell of it—though I doubt I'm the only one feeling shady about it...

Alex Cook said:Whoa, look at you, still reading this stuff. 🙂

You probably haven't been lurking in the IMF Betting section for long enough, so let me break it down for you—and explain why everyone seems so terrified of the moderator, acting like he's some kind of boogeyman.

Because back in the day—like, a year or two ago—this place actually had that classic old-school forum vibe...

AC Milan to win both ways at 1.37
PSG handicap at 1.43
Real Madrid win at 1.02

$133, bet the house on it☕

Milan's gonna screw you over🙂

They won't.

And that's it—thanks for nothing—that style of posting is ancient history. Anyone who still wants to write like that should probably just go find some other bottom-tier trash site to hang out on.

Fans have even more overlap with football, which is why they barely even mention it here—there's an entire sub-forum dedicated just to that crap.🤷
Look, you don't have to take my word for it. I've done my part. I'm not for it, I'm not against it, and honestly? I don't give a single damn how it all turns out.😁

Alex Cook said:Regarding the NBA threads, I think we’re heading down a rabbit hole that isn't exactly looking good... Look, I respect my colleagues here, really, but if we’re going to just turn a blind eye to one or—God forbid—both eyes when people start whining and being miserable, then we might as well just lock everything down into a single PDF or hand the mod keys over to Vex next thing you know. I wouldn't even bother drawing parallels to the Premier League, because honestly, both sides over there have their heads stuck in the sand—just pure, infantile stubbornness most of the time. I felt like I needed to throw the word "mostly" into this post... suck it. ☕
As for the NBA threads, at least those of you who actually post regularly and have the capacity to look at things objectively know they aren't exactly easy to love. Not in this current state. At least not for someone sitting on the outside of all that clan-like banter—you know, guys like Robert Torres, HNT, Valencia—and anyone else who isn't part of the "inner circle" on that topic but still tries to stir the pot in the PDF.

I stepped up as a mod about 8 or 9 months ago... took me a while to really get my head around how it all works. I'll admit, before that, I only read the NBA stuff maybe three times a year, and that was an "if" scenario. And yeah, back in the early days, totally unaccustomed to this kind of discourse, I definitely acted like a bull in a china shop more than once. Could I have handled things differently? Probably. Why didn't I? Well, fear, mostly—it's safer to just sanction everything so nobody can point a finger and claim you're playing favorites or doing it wrong. Though, I gotta say, eight months ago, the NBA threads were a straight-up circus of global proportions, with Carlos—aka CR—and Ajmonaprid leading the charge. Once those two finally got their portions, things settled into a slightly calmer tone, though the chaos would erupt again whenever, by some miracle, Ajmonaprid showed up with his clones. 🙂 From that perspective, I know exactly what it's like to be in the line of fire like the paper and Anthony Jackson2 are now, and I can't blame people if they go overboard sometimes.

The PDF has changed... everything changes, I guess. A new crop of kids has arrived. Asking for the "good old days" to come back🙂 doesn't make much sense, because it’s just not possible anymore. Even the people who were heavy hitters back then are basically just coasting along now, right, David Anderson72? 🙂 There aren't many high-quality debaters left, and losing them would be a total disaster.

About that betting thread—analoggull4, if it’s going to be formatted like the one over in the Fans section, then no, absolutely not happening.

Anyway, the newer guys might not remember, but the Betting sub-forum was created specifically to pull all those scattered threads from every corner of the site into one single spot—that’s literally the entire point of having a sub-forum.
Starting a new betting thread here wouldn't break the concept of the Betting sub-forum (IMF), but it raises a massive question: what's even the point?🤷 If we're using the logic of keeping things "local" so people don't have to wander around, then fine, let's just open an IT topic or a US topic under the Football section too. I mean, why the hell should I go over to the US board just because I'm single? If I'm a local here, I stay here.😁

Personally, I don't care either way, I just wanted to remind everyone how the Betting sub-forum actually came to be.🙂 As far as I'm concerned, you can open 22 different betting threads if you want...

Morgan Sanchez64 said:The drama at Hajduk is reaching a boiling point, and honestly, it’s about damn time. We’re seeing more calls for resignations than I can count, and frankly, I don't blame anyone for being fed up. The current Management has been spinning their wheels for far too long while our club deserves much better. It feels like we're stuck in a loop of broken promises and excuses. If you look at how things are being run, it’s clear that the Board of Directors needs to step up or get out of the way. You can't just sit there while the club struggles; you have to take accountability. People are rightfully furious, and if the leadership doesn't start making real changes—starting with some serious departures—this whole situation is going to spiral even further. We need action, not more empty talk from the front office. It’s time to clean house and get our club back on track.

Person, Luka Podrug is absolute garbage. He’s been sitting on that City Council for ten years now. Honestly? We don't deserve anything better.🙂 But honestly, who cares about that? What actually matters is that this guy thinks he can just come in and tear down the current Management in what—two months?! Give me a break. And then what? He’s going to bring in the City officials to back him up? Maybe he's even talking about himself when he says that!🙂They think they can just run the club? Please. They’d do absolutely anything just to get their hands on the steering wheel. What? You just dropped "za" and nothing else? Seriously? Are we really doing this right now? Give me something to work with here! If you've got a point to make or some massive rant ready to go, spit it out already. I don't have all day to stare at half-finished thoughts. Get to the point! Hajduk🤣🤣
Is it just me, or is this whole thing actually hilarious?🤣

So, we’re all sitting here wondering if the City should be providing a GUARANTEE. A guarantee?! Give me a break! If anything, the City needs to just cut a check—straight cash, no strings attached—because this club belongs to the people. Seriously, what’s even the difference between supporting Hajduk and funding a local theater or Hvidra? It’s all the same thing!🙂 Don't you dare start hitting me with that tired demagoguery about kindergartens, schools, or hospitals. Seriously, spare me. If we actually had sane, normal people running this country, we wouldn't even need to have this debate—we’d already have world-class funding for sports, culture, education, and everything else under the sun. It's that simple.
Oh, come on! Stop throwing money at Hajduk. Let's just take that cash and build a damn preschool instead.🤣 I’ve got an even better idea: let's just shut down every single sports team and entertainment venue in the entire city. That should free up plenty of extra millions for daycare centers and pensions, right? Let's just turn this whole city into nothing more than a glorified payroll office for salaries and social security, and then we can sit around and whine about how Miami is just as messed up as New York.🤦

placidheron16 said:Every single fight breaks out because whenever the big meetings happen, they always end up breeding some old-school Raiders mentality, whether it's on the forums or in person. Honestly, I’m so sick of you people! Seriously!! This new crowd running the stands now? They won't even step up and lead the kids. Kids are easy to handle, but someone needs to show them who’s actually calling the shots. You gotta be firm with the youth. You have to teach them from day one how to live the fan life, instead of just letting them sit there like mindless puppets for whoever happens to be shouting at them lately!!

Hold up, weren't those exact same "kids" who were supposedly "under control" for years the ones who actually took over the club? If they were so bad, why are they doing such a damn good job leading things now?😁

steeltrucker said:Can I ask a question? Why is it that when the organizer doesn't show up at the stands, or he's late, or whatever else happens, the fans just don't know how to cheer? They just stare at each other like total morons, looking like they don't even speak the same language. It's like they need a GPS just to find the entrance and the exit. Just look at the Los Angeles Dodgers situation last season...

It’s probably for the exact same reason the "main crew" is also waiting around for Lekić—it means the heavy hitters and the strongest local chapters are the ones really pulling the strings...

Matthew Foster8 said:I’m probably the last guy holding onto any hope here, but honestly, even that’s running thin. I basically stopped showing up to the stands this year, and at this rate, I might just stop following what the Black Knights are doing altogether.

Man, if you ask me, this right here is one of the biggest issues facing the whole group.🙂
Everyone keeps preaching about "unity" being the magic fix, but nobody actually does anything about it. Everyone stays in their own little bubble, sticking to their specific spot in the stands, and depending on whatever mood they're in, they either show up to back the team or they just don't. It’s pathetic. One prominent member mentioned that it feels like nothing has actually changed—the only difference is that the guys who used to stand front and center are now tucked away under the goalposts, and the ones who were by the posts are now in the middle. It’s not a perfect comparison, but it’s pretty much the reality.🙂 In this whole mess, Lekić is basically irrelevant. The stands should be led by whoever the strongest active faction is right now, period. But the way they handled everything? It sends zero signal of actual unity or togetherness. I don't know how to put this better without airing all our dirty laundry in public...

Benjamin Cruz29 said:3. We aren't some organized group... those guys just filled their heads with crap... we aren't a group... give me a break...

Exactly... Bauer's media blitz has been running since they showed up in the States, and now that the internet is actually becoming a thing, people are starting to take this nonsense seriously—like it's some kind of established fact instead of what it really is.🙏🙏

Matthew Foster8 said:T. Bauer has done more damage to the Black Knights with his lackeys, his insults, and his constant mouth-wagging over all these years than half the size of our actual membership. You guys should honestly just send him a formal letter of expulsion or something. Get him out.

Look, let’s be honest—without him, the Black Knights wouldn't even exist. Period.🙂

John Brown30 said:🙄 we need everyone just talking openly about whatever pops into their heads. we won't get anywhere without it. our biggest failure is just this total lack of communication and connection. 😉

I know exactly what you mean.😉

The atmosphere wasn't exactly mind-blowing, but compared to how things have been lately? It was actually pretty epic. Honestly, who even knows who showed up.
I reckon we’re seeing way more people finally stopping the endless crying over the past and fighting their own little private wars or boycotts. Instead, they’re actually cheering, regardless of whether they back the recent changes or not.
And that’s really what matters most—we’re here for the Kansas City Chiefs, not just for our own egos.🙂

Sure, everything still feels a bit stiff. We’re missing that raw energy and that absolute madness, if you know what I mean. Which is totally expected because people need time to adjust. Nobody likes change, especially when it hits fast, and it takes a while to break old habits. It’ll happen eventually, hopefully. Personally, I miss that vibe more than the fact that we’re only cheering for 78 or 83 minutes, but those two things go hand in hand anyway.

Bottom line: quit whining and get to work.🙂 For now, just stop acting like idiots.😍
When Vidin walks through the stands, chatting up everyone he meets or working his hands to the bone for 90 minutes, it honestly makes me sick—especially knowing that tomorrow on this forum, some idiots will be posting about how nobody is cheering or how everything sucks because the crowd is just a mess.
