Die-hard Ultras / Hardcore Supporters

swiftstag13 said:I’ve gotta hand it to the NFL Ultras for showing up in force, supporting the guys, and lighting up the stands, but there’s been this massive flaw with the fans for a while now. I don't catch every single game, but during the big rivalry matches, you guys just completely shut down the second the other team scores. It happened again today—first goal, dead silence. Second goal, still nothing. It took a good few minutes before anyone even started singing again. You guys are basically a black hole when things go south.

swiftstag13 said:I have to give credit to the NFL Ultras for their sheer numbers, the way they back the players, and those incredible flares, but there’s been one major flaw with them for a while now. I don't follow them to every single match, but whenever there's a big derby, they just completely shut down the moment the other team scores. It happened again today: we concede the first goal, total silence; we concede the second, still nothing; it takes several minutes before the singing even starts again. They're basically a black hole of energy.

Jack Chavez3 said:I’m not sure how you view it, but this isn't a flaw. It’s only natural to feel stunned and disappointed when you concede a goal; there's always that momentary silence while you process the setback. If you actually care about the club, that's when the letters start flying, followed by the applause and support for the players. Cheers.

swiftstag13 said:Look, I see it as providing that immediate support right when things are at their worst—the kind of stuff you actually take pride in. You’re cursing out the ref and everything else, then immediately breaking into a song to back the guys. Or what? Should we just sit there in silence while the opposing fans carry their team to another goal in a matter of minutes because they're riding that adrenaline high? And then, five or six minutes later, we finally decide to start singing.

It’s basically like players standing around arguing about who messed up the goal right after it happens. Just get the ball out from the center circle and let's move on.

I have to say, the atmosphere in the stands was incredible, even if the actual play on the field was pathetic (well, from what I could catch).

Don't get all sensitive on me just because I'm calling it like I see it, inspired by that raw, unfiltered message we sent that basically defined who your group is—though I didn't have a hand in drafting it this time around.

Regardless, the energy in the crowd was top-tier. I honestly don't think there are many people left willing to waste their weekend hours watching this garbage we call the MLS.

To all the fans involved. 🙏🙏🙏

I guess Bebek finally learned his lesson, though.

And honestly, if that message from the Ultras was meant for us... it’s pretty pathetic. Like, ten years of being an agency in a twenty-six-year history? Not exactly something to be proud of...

wanderingpuma18 said:your take is about as original as your attempt to revive this topic in the first place.🤣

Jesse Campbell said:Don't get all worked up—I'm just calling it like I see it. I'm just riffing off that insane message we got earlier that basically laid out everything your crew stands for—even though I didn't have a hand in drafting that mess myself.
