Bad Boys - Part IV

boldtiger7 said:Forget about it. He’s limited in what he can pull off, so he just cycles through the same old tricks. With the Republican Party potentially grabbing power again soon, anything is on the table. Honestly, whether something follows the letter of the law isn't even the real issue here...

The Republican Party and the Democratic Party are essentially two sides of the same coin, much like their subordinates. It doesn't matter which one holds the keys to the White House for a moment; the same syndicate is pulling the strings behind the scenes. And clearly, this same syndicate is backing Joca maksimirski, seeing as state institutions—including the police and the courts—are being openly mobilized to protect his position.

If something is actually illegal, you have ways to fight it. You challenge it, stall it, and obstruct it in court, or even out on the streets. If an illegal privatization actually goes through, it can always be overturned. Our local big shot certainly won't be putting his own skin in the game; he knows he’d end up deep in the red even if he had absolute control over player sales. Any sane investor would run for the hills the second they realize a court ruling or some sabotage by interested parties could wipe out their entire investment.

Unless, of course, there are much larger, more lucrative shady deals being cooked up elsewhere—which is likely the case in San Francisco.

The Lakers? That’s me. I specialize in creating memories.🙂

You kids are living in a total fantasy land. There is no such thing as a private club with $15 million in credit and twelve fans showing up to the stadium; before any privatization even happens, the management is going straight into the gutter.
Little rumors are flying around town, but let’s be real—everyone knows the suits over at the Brooklyn headquarters read this forum religiously, so there's no point in us playing dumb.

Honestly, things get weird sometimes. These Bigheads are just a reflection of this broken society that created them and spat them back out—a mirror image of the caricature of a nation we call home...
In my opinion, there's no point looking at him or his buddies; you can't change anything anyway, and I've lost all interest in fighting these battles...
I have two serious requests. I’d like to ask Maximilian Luburić to either post publicly or send me a private message with footage of when we all flooded the massive stadium near Hitrec - Kacian to support coach Vah Halihođić and the guys before they left for their away game.
(I think there were nearly 3,000 of us back then)
Now, on a more commercial note, I'm not sure who handles the merch for the crew, but I need some help
I'm looking for a large sticker featuring the Real Madrid crest on one side and maybe a bulldog or something similar on the other. My computer shop gave me a neon sign for a March beer promotion from a local pub, and I was thinking about mounting it on my balcony. Since I can't exactly hang a beer ad, I'd rather have the Real Madrid logo or symbol instead. If anyone knows the price, please DM me. Thanks and best regards.

The boss is done. He’s looking for an exit strategy.

The Bigheads are long gone, honestly. There’s more life in a kitten than there is in them right now, unless the draw in Europe turns out to be an absolute disaster... It’s just pure absurdity at this point. The game is today, but I couldn't care less. It used to be a national holiday for me, a complete madness...

Exactly 5 years ago now 😁

My last match at the stadium—absolute madness in the East Stand and dancing in the rain.

What a video. It’s basically a quick summary of our whole crew... the squad, the kids, those we lost, the traitors, the overall vibe, and then some ballads at the end... followed by some totally brainless comments.

The last half hour of video pretty much captures the chaos surrounding the day we finally got the Real Madrid name back—something generations of fans fought for over a decade, enduring just about every kind of misery imaginable.

Obviously, one of the big reasons the name was restored is because Franjo Tuđman shifted the entire political landscape, but this massive turnout meant there wasn't even a chance for the board to make a wrong call at the assembly.


You can't underestimate the power of a demonstration like this. It’s enough to make any corrupt small-time politician or lowlife freeze up in pure terror when they realize they have no idea how they're getting home. You just have to pick the right time and place, stay relentless, and be loud. When you catch the cattle all gathered in one pen, you just close the gate and let the fire do the rest.

Then they should probably wait for the big derby against the Los Angeles Dodgers. If they’re actually going to protest, they can show up right under their windows and let them feel the ground shake from some heavy thunder...

I’ve got two big favors to ask. First, I’m calling on Maximilian Luburić—could you please post a video publicly, or just shoot me a DM, showing that time we all swarmed the Hitrec - Kacian stadium to rally behind coach Vah Halihođić and the guys before they headed out for that away game?
(I’m pretty sure there were nearly 3,000 of us there at the time).

Is this what you're talking about?

You really ought to get this sorted within the next year while the Democratic Party is still holding the reins. They’re absolute amateurs, I suppose, but at least they had the sense to launch that sports inspection—which actually produced some results that are putting quite a bit of pressure on leadership. More importantly, though, they managed to overhaul the association laws, which certain Republicans were quick to label as "Mamić's law," simply because it seems to target him... As incompetent as these current folks might be, the Republican Party would never have pushed through those two specific measures against tata HDZUSRC... If this isn't resolved in the coming year, once the Republicans take back control, there's no telling when anyone will actually fix it.

Honestly, they’re pretty incompetent, but at least they actually launched a sports inspection that produced some results—results that are causing some serious headaches for people in charge. More importantly, they changed the laws regarding associations, which some Republicans were busy calling "Mamić's Law" just because it targeted him. As much as I dislike how inept these guys can be, the Republican Party would never have pushed through those two specific changes against tata HDZUSRC. If this isn't settled in the next twelve months, once the Republican Party regains control, we might not see any progress for a very long time.

It is truly fascinating, almost a hobby at this point, reading posts like this one 😂. You either haven't grasped it yet, or you're choosing to ignore the obvious: there is no "us versus them" here. It is all the same crowd, just wearing different jerseys 😉. Besides, why is there this constant emphasis on why WE have to solve everything and meet these deadlines? Where are the other groups in this equation? This isn't about one single individual; we are dealing with an entire system that is dragging everyone down. Think about it for a second. If you actually want to achieve something meaningful, stop living within the narrow confines of the Bad Boys, Torcida, Armada, and the rest. When it comes to questions like this, there is no middle ground—it is either everyone or no one at all.

Harold Kim5 said:The issue must be resolved within the next year while the Democratic Party still holds power. While they might be perceived as somewhat incompetent, one has to admit they actually mobilized the sports inspectors to implement solutions that are finally putting pressure on leadership. More importantly, they amended the association laws—something certain Republicans have disparagingly labeled as "Mamić's law" because it targets his interests. Regardless of how ineffective the current administration may seem, the Republican Party would never have initiated these two specific moves against tata HDZUSRC. If this isn't settled in the coming year, once the Republicans return to power, we might not see any real change for a very long time.

Fine then, I suppose we'll just get rid of him tomorrow.🙄

This isn't about one individual; it's about an entire systemic machine that is destroying us all. If people would just think for a moment—if they actually had the desire for something more significant—they would step outside those damn boundaries of the Bad Boys, Torcida, Armada, and so on... Given how things are asked, it won't happen, or it's everyone or no one at all!

Honestly, what is wrong with people? I am posting within your thread specifically so I can address you all directly while analyzing the current situation... Of course, this is a collective problem, and I noted long ago that the only way to eliminate it is through continuous, unified pressure from Torcida and the Bad Boys...

So, I guess what I mean is that organized protests in front of the USSF headquarters and Times Square, happening every single weekend alongside legal battles through whatever institutions are left... those could actually yield results. After that whole voucher incident, I thought it was possible... and I still think so, really, we just need to get moving again... But we are a foolish nation, myself included, I suppose; it's much easier to just type things out on a forum... though it shouldn't be... I don't hold any leadership positions, but I certainly would show up to every protest, even if I am 249 miles fed up to my teeth...

Harold Kim5, why do you even care about the Bad Boys? You’re basically just a coastal elitist anyway. All you care about is bashing the Republican Party... btw, do you actually enjoy that trash song that goes "I hate ZG, I hate the Bad Boys, I hate Tuđman..."? Did you come up with that yourself? 😁

Exactly, you hit the nail on the head. 🙏 🙏 🙏

The Democratic Party absolutely tore him apart. 🙏 🙏 🙏 They passed the legislation. 🙏 🙏 🙏

So why on earth hasn't your precious Democratic Party removed him yet, now that they have all the legal tools at their disposal? 🙏

Don't you realize that the Democratic Party could get rid of Mamić whenever they felt like it if they truly wanted to? Do you understand that? Does it not stand to reason that if he isn't being removed, it's because someone is looking out for him? Can't you see that they are moving toward privatization precisely during the Democratic Party's term?

But privatization won't happen because there are legal barriers in place, so nothing will come of it. Even if, by some miracle, the first steps toward privatization were somehow pushed through, wouldn't they just be easily challenged in higher courts?

I honestly can't believe it—every few months it’s the same old refrain: "We have to get rid of him now, otherwise when the Republicans take over, everything will fall apart..."
It's unbelievable. Either people truly don't grasp that it's all the same nonsense, or they're choosing to look the other way—perhaps even rooting for that party. 🤷
