Andrew White32 said:Look, man, I totally get what you're trying to say with your posts, but this bolded part leaves me with two possibilities:

a) You guys were supposed to play like a real team on the court, but our guys didn't show up—or even worse, they showed up but played without any cohesion?👎
b) Or are you just looking for some kind of game, or whatever else?🤷
☕


Please, don't talk nonsense here. It’s completely obvious why you weren't there when we came out from behind the ice to face you! You weren't expecting us, so things got chaotic. Even though we were heading your way, despite those guys playing hard with stones, you still didn't step up. It's honestly pretty sad that fifty people can organize a rally right in the middle of your downtown area and it still doesn't move you...

I dig your writing style, plus you’ve got some serious foresight.
In my 25 years, I've been everywhere—guesting from one spot to the next.
I've scrolled through endless groups and little cliques, but nothing touches yours. You guys are the gold standard.
It's probably that perfect blend of a diverse city and a melting pot of people.
Go ahead and ban me if you have to; I'll die of sadness, my heart just won't take it.
When was this group actually founded, back in '87? Which of the old guard was sitting on the bleachers with you on day one?
Where's the PlayStation? Are you guys still messing around with that thing?
What's with all the anger?

William White8 said:Don't talk nonsense. It’s obvious you didn't show up. When we traveled all the way from out of state to see you, did you even expect us? There was a huge commotion, yet you still headed toward those guys throwing stones instead of coming down. It’s pathetic that fifty people managed to make a scene right in the middle of your downtown.

Honestly, I’m just baffled. Two groups of guys from the coast who can't even coordinate a decent toss into a playground? If there were that many of you, you should have organized a tournament or something. It's pathetic how little thought goes into this. All that talk about doing things "behind someone's back"—what kind of "surprise factor" is that supposed to be? It just makes you look disorganized. You should have had the guts to face them man-to-man. I'd call the guys in the local fan clubs tough, but honestly, the way you all act... it's just weak. 😉)😁 Truly pathetic. Fifty people barely putting on a show? It’s underwhelming. Use some common sense next time and they might actually pull off something better.

P.S. Looking at your location, I see you’re just some local branch of the fan club. A minor little player, really. Always acting like a subset. You could probably ask if that group was even ever officially part of the main organization back in Cleveland, but we all know they were. It’s all just about branches anyway. 👍 Is that how it works? I drifted away from what I actually intended to say. You just don't get it, man. Your local fan clubs have been struggling in Cleveland for years, so you're better off wandering around town occasionally instead of constantly being met with a knife at every turn.👍😍

I appreciate your writing style; you're quite perceptive.
In my 25 years of following the teams around the country (following them everywhere),
I've seen all kinds of fan groups, but none match yours. You guys are the best.
It’s likely that perfect blend of a diverse city and its people.
Go ahead and ban me if you have to; I'll be heartbroken, my heart won't take it.
When was this group founded, back in '87? Who among our old friends was there on the stands with you at the start?
Where's the PlayStation? Are you still playing it?
Why so much anger?

If you've been traveling for 25 years, let's say you started at age 7.5 like any real fan, then you're 32.5 now. It's pathetic for a man your age to be posting on forums filled with kids. No job, no family, no kids—nothing. None of you real fans have anything.
Truly brings a tear to my eye...

Andrew White32 said:I mean, seriously, two groups of young guys from the coast and you can't even coordinate a decent way to throw the playoffs? If there were that many of you, why couldn't you just organize a small tournament among yourselves? I honestly don't get it—I'm disappointed by the lack of foresight. You talk about doing things "behind someone's back," but what does that even mean? Using some "surprise factor" as an excuse when it clearly looks like you were outnumbered? You should have just looked them in the eye like adults. If you were actually tough guys from those local fan chapters, I might say something else, but this whole "backstabbing" thing... 😉it's just pathetic. 😁 Honestly, it's sad. Fifty people should be able to put on a hell of a show, but that was underwhelming. Next time, try using your heads, and maybe the show will actually be worth watching.

P.S. Looking at your location, it seems you're part of one of those local fan branches. Give me a break, man; just a few local chapters? You could probably ask how things really stand regarding whether the main group was even in Cleveland to begin with—though we all know they were. It’s not all about being in the local chapters, 👍right? Anyway, I'm getting off track, but you're missing the point. Look, for years, those local fan chapters have had a rough time in Cleveland. They move around here and there just to walk through the city without constantly being met with hostility. 👍😍

I really have to tell you, you're talking nonsense. When we made our move toward you, you guys scattered. Even though you had more people, and even after an equal number of guys from the coast joined you, we held the center. And what did you actually DO??? Nothing!!! You just tripped over yourselves trying to run away! And as for the PlayStation thing? You acted like cowards, fleeing south just like the police did, and there were three cruisers right there... yet you completely forgot about the PlayStation. 🙂🙂🙂🙂

Man, please. I'd rather walk into a dark alley in Chicago than be the one to ban you...🤣🤣
Right, Veko??😁

I’m not going to sit here and comment on things I didn't actually witness—that wouldn't be fair—but if you’re honestly claiming you were standing right in front of our section during that big rivalry game back on November 2nd, 2002... well, even a toddler could see through that one.

So, you're really going to brag about those half-baked banners from the California coast? Honestly—if that's your idea of a statement—it just makes me think you're nothing more than a common provocateur rather than a serious ultra.
It seems like people have been breaking into homes in places like Cleveland or even out on Martha's Vineyard—all because someone decided to swipe stuff from the Forza Fiume offices. And then, to top it all off, they take photos of the protest signs from four different angles—which, let’s be honest, is usually just a total load of crap.

Exactly, Ethan Moore56, and look, the reason those local crews always get wiped out is because it’s basically a setup—you’ve got two or three guys getting jumped by a mob of ten, and they already know exactly who everyone is, right? It’s honestly wild how it’s always just the local guys taking the hit, while something like our branch in Chicago was pulling in groups of five easily, but man, we’re all so split up it’s ridiculous. I seriously wonder who would even step up to back us if we were actually being hunted down in a pack, but honestly? I blame us, because let's face it, we have zero cohesion. Just look at Max for example—we could easily roll up with forty or fifty people, but instead, we're spread out across ten different tiny groups instead of just renting a damn bus, so then you can go ahead and complain when things go south if you've got the nerve! That's why I just stick with my own small crew, though honestly, I find it's way better and safer to just head to the game solo rather than having to beg someone to pick me up, catch my drift?👍

stormyseal9 said:Exactly, Ethan Moore56, and that’s why groups like Trans always end up getting crushed. It sucks, but you get a tiny crew of two or three walking into a situation where ten people are waiting to jump them, and they know exactly who everyone is. It’s funny how it’s always just the local guys taking the hit. I mean, even the NASA branch used to have about five people showing up, but we’re all so fragmented. Honestly, I wonder who would even step up for us if we were actually being hunted down in a pack, and I blame ourselves—we just don't have any unity. Look at the Max fans; there are 40 or 50 of them, but instead of just renting a charter bus, they split into ten different little groups, which basically invites trouble if you've got any sense. That’s why I stick with my own small circle, though I usually just head to the game solo. It's better and way safer than having to beg some group to let you tag along. Later.👍

Later.👍

Even Terry Lee3 is on board with this because things are pretty much the same over there, though I guess it’s a little easier for them since their club is actually based in their hometown instead of being out here with us 249 miles but honestly, that’s exactly why we love them even more 🤣

Andrew White32 said:Look, for years now, those Torcida branches have been having a rough time over in Cleveland—so why not head out and walk around the city once in a while instead of just staying tucked away to avoid getting jumped?👍 😍

And what about the Torcida North group—you know, the one you claim represents Northern America? Does their luck run out in Cleveland too, or are you just lying through your teeth?

Man, I’m honestly getting so sick of the constant insults, especially on a forum that’s supposed to be a place to just chill out... It’s pathetic, really. You’ve got these little guys who only feel brave enough to talk trash behind a screen, or those people constantly throwing out labels—calling everyone communists, idiots, or just mindless partisans 😁, or some other nonsense... because that’s the only thing that gets them worked up. I won't even pretend I'm above it—I'll bite if someone pokes me—but still. These tiny cowards should just go find an extremist political rally or something and scream at those people instead. At least then you'd actually be facing someone. ☕

Man, what a load of nonsense... people saying things aren't landing well in Cleveland?!? Last year, you guys absolutely crushed it over at Martha's Vineyard when you took on Andorra, and then there was that time on Manhattan where you guys—like, about ten of you—totally owned that guy who was heading out to see Florence... none of those situations turned into some messy brawl or anything like that. Honestly, the only thing that really carried any weight was that last Martha's Vineyard stunt; everything else was just noise... peace out.

And besides, calling Cleveland some kind of "outsider" town like certain people love to do is just wrong... it's simply because (thankfully) we didn't get leveled by war, though we did a ton of work helping refugees and stuff like that settle in... if you ask me, the real embarrassment is California and how they've basically traded their soul just to act all fancy and European.

You’re sitting here acting like there are only three transfers, but there are tons of them... maybe you don't care, but someone else does.☕
Why is everyone getting so worked up over these transfers and people jumping onto the field?
😕You guys really think you're God's gift to the world, don't you?
🤣God, I can see it now... someone's gonna post a photo of the three of us in a jail cell and immediately some idiot will chime in with, "Oh please, you guys are nothing, remember that whole laptop incident?"🤣

Seriously though, give it up... you guys really are the toughest bunch out there, aren't you? We’re clearly the champions of endless internet arguments, and honestly, it just never ends. If those trolls don't even phase you, then hey, keep doing whatever it is you're doing—if that's what gets you off, go for it. You've more than made your point already!

Hey man, where the hell are you from? Are you from near Key West or something? And do you know Kasa from RI? He’s gonna be down in Key West this summer—he actually owns a place there. Catch ya later!

If those transfers don't mean a damn thing to you, then by all means, keep chasing that high. You've already proven your point more than enough times.

I mean, seriously, what is it with people getting so worked up over trans people? Dude posts a picture and says they’re killing it, so what’s the actual issue? It’s not like we were out there sending little kids to sit in the away section or anything—everyone’s got their own thing they're into.☕
Let’s call it what it is... they’re banning photos because they're terrified some hardcore fan groups might lose their minds over them.🤷
God, I'm so sick of all these "alpha" types acting like they're untouchable. Everyone’s always talking about who's the strongest or who's the biggest player in the room, right? Then reality hits, they realize they've been totally screwed over, and suddenly that ego vanishes. It's pathetic.🤣Peace out. 😲

My family is actually from Key West...☕
I should probably head down there and check it out myself... hm...😁
And hey, stormyseal9, take that to the DMs... wtf?!?

Look, armada, just because nobody's out there broadcasting it all over the internet when you get trampled like a bunch of little mice, doesn't mean it didn't happen...
you were always going to be the type to smash car windows when nobody's around to see it anyway...
