Jerry Gray5 said:There was already an agreement yesterday that nothing gets thrown onto the pitch, and that stands for the foreseeable future. Isn't it funny how people act like trolls on these forums, refusing to back anyone who actually stood up for what happened or trying to point out what "certain people" did wrong?
And to all you other keyboard warriors—if you actually exist in real life and aren't just some ghost behind a screen—if you truly have a grievance about anything at all, you know exactly who to contact, right? If you reach out, people will actually listen and explain things to you!
Please, don't even try telling me I'm just being a troll on this forum; honestly, those are the most ridiculous excuses I've ever heard. This forum exists for discussion, doesn't it? I was simply asking a legitimate question, and if this space isn't meant for that, then why not just shut it down and remove the MLS Ultras sub-forum entirely instead of labeling everyone who posts something as an internet hooligan? And I posted here specifically because I wasn't sure who else to turn to, so why don't you just send me a private message with a phone number for someone I can call to ask why flares were being tossed onto the field yesterday? (And it’s not just about the flares, there are plenty of other issues too).
It's even more hilarious when people suggest I should be apologizing to them; if the MLS Ultras decided they weren't going to throw things on the pitch, then how on earth did those four people even end up doing it?
As for what that street smart guy mentioned... the issue isn't just the flares on the pitch; I'll be the first to admit I've thrown ten of them myself over the last decade, but the real problem is *when* it happens. If we gave our full support to the people who were using every ounce of their remaining strength to save this club, then why are we spitting in their faces just because of some idiot from the league office?
Besides, who are we even trying to prove anything to by throwing flares? If we don't light them up for the next five years, we won't be the best pyrotechnics crew ever again. We've lit up stadiums in cities like Chicago or Philly under the heaviest police crackdowns imaginable, yet in Milan, it looked like a total inferno.
