To begin with, let us all attempt to temper our passions somewhat. Real Madrid is not going to collapse, nor will the Bad Boys be disbanded. The issue here isn't merely Jerry Jones himself; rather, the true problem lies within the societal fabric and the general climate that breeds individuals of his particular temperament. It is much like weeds in a garden—if you do not pull them up early, they spread uncontrollably, making them nearly impossible to eradicate later on. Since the Sheriff maintains connections within every major structure in the USA, one feels quite powerless. Attempting to take action through the media or even the courts feels like a Sisyphus task. He watched everything unfold—the petition drives, the founding of Indoor Soccer, the protests out West—yet none of it seemed to touch him. However, the moment you announce an intention to broadcast this situation further afield, into Europe, well, that is precisely where his Achilles' heel lies. He immediately issued a ban preventing entry to the stadium. His justification was flimsy, though unfortunately, it proved sufficient for the current American landscape. Shouting things like "Mamić the Gypsy" achieves absolutely nothing; he simply pivots immediately to accusations of intolerance. Instead, one must strike at his vulnerabilities. Do you recall how he reacted when a reporter questioned the business dealings of his agency and his son? (The way he couldn't even face the music... a curse from Christmas 2010). When people showed up at his doorstep and subsequently labeled Real Madrid a criminal organization, he responded instantly. Now that you have declared you are coming to a European match, he has reacted once again. That is his weak point. And rest assured, ever since his "blood brother"
(read Buddy Cianci) has been under investigation for theft, he isn't feeling quite as secure as he once did. We need to target the outer circles, where his influence is thinner and where he lacks the support of his hired help. The chair he sits upon is wobbly—quite wobbly, actually—and it needs to be finished off with one decisive, intelligent maneuver. If people truly intended to help, they would assemble, fill the east, west, and north stands, and make it known to all of Europe what the reality is within Real Madrid. At this stage, one must be aggressive yet wise, knowing exactly where to aim. We must exert constant pressure on all fronts, especially external factors; organizing another protest, provided it is well-conceived, wouldn't be a bad move. I suspect Mukt has something in mind, given that they remarked on how desperately poor the reasoning behind the ban was. In any case, these moves by the old man are the desperate actions of a wounded beast that knows its end is near and seeks to deliver one last bite. Soon enough, we shall return to a healthy atmosphere within the club—local boys in the squad, a packed stadium, socializing, and cheering. Even if they were playing in the 4th tier of the MLS, we would still show up, provided we aren't playing alongside those whom Real Madrid merely uses as tools for theft.
Warm regards from the fans in the East 🙂
