When I read what’s being posted here, I find myself feeling surprisingly optimistic about the future of organized fandom in America. 🙂
I have no desire to descend to the level of these fifth columnists within the fan community to engage in an argument; I prefer to assume that behind these usernames sit nothing more than immature kids who haven't even attended five games in their lives. If that isn't the case, then we are dealing with incredibly narrow-minded individuals—a unfortunate reality in the US, which is clearly reflected in our voting patterns and who we choose to seat in Congress.
I have one suggestion:
Why don't the fans start a collective fund to finance an independent, professional autopsy for Mark, just so we can obtain a second opinion regarding the actual cause of death?
Ultimately, if the County Police are not responsible for this death, it is fundamentally wrong to accuse anyone of murder if they didn't commit it. But if they are indeed at fault, shouldn't we provide the family with the justice they deserve?

Absolute morons, just looking for a cheap laugh. Back when we were all struggling through the dirt, just a bunch of immature kids and a few idiots, they used to feast on our misery. To be honest, we’re partly to blame—we let them get under our skin during that first big match. But now that we’ve risen from the ashes, getting stronger with every single game, there are some people just itching to come back and poke at our biggest rivals. Honestly, what a bunch of low-life losers!
What do we actually have in common with the mules, the Armada, and the Lunatics? Think about it. It’s the love for the club and the city, that pride in being American, the passion for "football," and the whole lifestyle of being a fan...
At the end of the day, we’re all pieces of one massive, beautiful FAN MOVEMENT! Look at it like a human cell. You’ve got the nucleus (the most hardcore fans), then the ribosomes, the cytoplasm, and so on (everyone else: the casual fans, the ultras, the supporters, the hooligans, etc.). A cell is only as strong as its individual parts and organs! For once, let’s just unite as a FAN MOVEMENT, where every guy in the Bad Boys looks at the mules and the demons as brothers instead of enemies. We should be fighting together against the mafia, the system, and the daily grind of being stepped on! Let's bring back that 80s spirit!! If we can actually survive as a movement, we'll eventually forget all this old beef and rivalry on our own.

By the way, I caught that incredible episode on PBS yesterday regarding the death of Mark Azapovic. They had Velcro, Saranavka, and a rep from the Bad Boys on the panel, and even Mark’s brother called in via phone. This whole thing isn't going away quietly. The interrogation at the station was described as straight-up torture; they were calling out all of Ostojicev’s lies and inconsistencies. Based on his own time behind bars, Velcro is convinced he was forced to kneel for hours on end. It was also noted that it is entirely plausible the embolism was caused by blunt force trauma. To top it off, Velcro claimed he has witnesses who can testify that this kind of behavior from the County Police isn't just a one-off—it's their standard operating procedure.

Word on the street is some cops beat the hell out of some kid near the Civil War memorial (Near Chrome)? Can anyone confirm if that’s legit or just a total lie?
Also, this place is absolutely packed with garbage... I was standing by Entrance K and it took me all of three minutes to get high enough to feel like Robert Adams6.😁
And look, I honestly couldn't believe my eyes, so let me break it down;
1. The way your people are checking tickets at the entrance... it's a joke. Five guys walking through one gate at a time... some don't even bother looking.
2. That metal flare (basically a five-minute maritime signal) or whatever—it either gets shoved in via some shady method or I don't even know how else to put it... and it just burns and burns and burns until it's gone... no police presence, no security, no firefighters, nothing.
3. Zero cameras, zero cops.
4. No Falcons in the middle of the crowd.
5. Some guy on a pole to the right of the new leadership... waving around a 20cm flute...
6. That song at the start, something about "your people from Split"... absolute trash.
7. You "Love Bandic" and love Mamic, you morons, because you already know where we stand.
8. And nothing against the Democratic Party...?!
Kudos for the donation boxes in the stands to help AM.
Later.

mistygull said:1. The way they check tickets at the gate is a joke... five people squeezing through one turnstile... half the time they don't even look...
We spotted this issue ages ago and we've recycled this exact complaint on this forum a hundred times. We better get some actual ticket counters by this summer because things can't go on like this. It’s obvious the front office either lacks the will or the brains to fix it properly, and it's not like it's impossible. The club suffers most from this, and that's what really sucks in a situation like this.
Haven't seen a donation box for Mark yet, is there an account we can wire money to?

mistygull said:Word is some kid's stash got trashed by thugs near the intersection of Civil War Memorial Drive and Chrome? Can anyone confirm if this is legit or just some fake news?
On another note, you people are absolutely packed in there... I was standing at Gate K and it took me all of three minutes to get a full lungful of smoke.😁
And since I couldn't believe half of what I saw, let me break it down;
1. The way your guys handle ticket checks at the entrance is a complete joke... five people walking through per staffer... some don't even bother looking...
2. That metal flare (basically a maritime signal that lasts five minutes) was either shoved in via some shady backchannel or whatever... and then it just burns and burns and burns until it dies out... no police presence, no security, no firefighters, nothing...
3. There are zero cameras and zero cops visible....
4. No Falcons patrolling the center....
5. Some guy on a pole to the right of the new management... waving around a 20cm flute...
6. That song at the start, something about "your boys from Miami"... absolute garbage....
7. Saying you love Jerry Maguire or love Bandić is just pure stupidity because you know exactly how we've been treated...
8. Nothing against the USSF...?!
Way to go with those donation boxes in the stands for AT&T.
Cheers!
3. There are plenty of cameras
7. Directed at the locomotive

Look, man, they weren't just playing nice yesterday either—they were out there messing with people left and right.
It’s one thing when you've got a few hundred people flooding the stands, but it's a whole different beast when it's 5,000.

The crackdown finally hit the Rose Bowl too, and honestly, it just looks pathetic when you take a real look at the whole situation. I was there last night, saw it all firsthand, and man, I guess it's finally your turn to deal with this mess.
Don't let them get to you.

Anyone caught starting a debate over who has it harder, which stadium has more security presence, how many cameras are actually running at the Rose Bowl, or whose old man is tougher... you will receive an immediate, permanent ban.

Exactly!
There is no reason to start arguments or ask questions when everyone already knows the answer.😁

Don't let them get to you.
If you're talking about the lack of banners or the missing flares, yeah, okay, it looks like total crap, but I wouldn't go as far as saying it ruined the energy. Not even close. Personally, I thought the atmosphere was better than most.
Who gives a damn

Honestly, I’m just stunned by that response. Of course I feel for you guys, and I truly wish you nothing but strength while fighting back against this repression. I was simply trying to point out how much I'm curious about how you all plan to handle things moving forward. Seriously, I'm genuinely interested!

Look, we’re gonna settle the score on everything that’s happened up to this point, so just lock this whole thing down because this thread has turned into a total disaster of a PDF mess
