MLS 2022/23 Season: Part 2

Adam Myers4 said:Oh, absolutely! I can tell just by looking at you—you’re a die-hard, true-blue Dinamo fan through and through! 🙏

Way to go! Right on!

It truly is remarkable how much of the world seems to revolve around the Hajduk orbit; it’s almost surreal.

I find myself completely bewildered by recent events, yet I cannot help but notice that our officials have begun a pattern of brandishing yellow cards only to let them slip through their fingers without consequence 🙏 🙏—it seems we are constantly being introduced to some absurd new level of incompetence within these league circles.

neonhawk6 said:Look, I’ll be blunt—so be it. Personally, I’d much rather have someone just say what they actually think—even if that means gloating over a loss for the team in white—than deal with all these people suddenly acting like they "love" them lately. It's getting ridiculous. All these fake congratulations and heartfelt messages... please. Since when did we decide that some sense of national unity means folks from Chicago have to root for the Bulls, or guys from New York have to cheer for the Knicks? Where is that even written? Everyone roots for their own side, and that’s fine. A bit of healthy trash talk is part of the game.

Preach, you beautiful bastard. Explain it to these softies on the forum.

I honestly don't hold a grudge against Prodanović at all. I think people are just becoming a bit too sensitive to provocations lately, which I guess is exactly why this whole woke-cancel culture atmosphere keeps gaining momentum.
To be completely honest, I’m rooting for Rijeka and Dinamo to lose every single match—and that goes for their youth teams, too. Juniors, cadets, pioneers... I don't care. I just want them to drop everything.
Honestly, I wouldn't mind if we just lost every single international match and championship final. To be perfectly blunt, I couldn't care less about coefficient rankings or whatever technicalities those analysts obsess over. It just doesn't matter to me.

Exactly. I'm with you on that.👍

Good grief, those guys and the Republicans acting like they’re the only ones left standing against the world. ☕

You're just being way too soft for my taste. 🙂

neonhawk6 said:Lol—honestly, this is exactly why half of America laughs at them. They act surprised when people mock them.

Go ahead and laugh, you and the rest of the crowd acting like experts on this forum. Nobody actually cares about your opinion...
For two days, a couple of you have been mocking the underdog and their players just because they pulled off a miracle in the junior Champions League final, while your squad hasn't come close to anything like that... maybe when your team actually achieves something, you'll feel the euphoria too...
Maybe try focusing your energy on your own local club for once instead of worrying about ours...

is one thing....
but you aren't exactly living off the revenue from concerts in cities like Rijeka or Chicago, nor do you rely on their voices to help you make it onto the Eurovision stage....

You can hate him privately as much as your heart desires, brother... but if you are a public figure, you can certainly love your own people publicly, but you simply cannot go around publicly hating those who belong to your own circle.....
Nobody would ever blame him for saying, "I love and support Rijeka, and that's it"....
But you just can't publicly spit on the very people who share your bread.....

🤣

That's what needs to happen, instead of these weaklings who take offense at every little thing.

👍

It isn't about hatred, just standard trash talk. Honestly, seeing how some of your high-profile media figures react makes me embarrassed to even be on the opposing side...

Today, just to spite them, I'm rooting for the San Antonio Spurs. ☕

It was the exact same thing when those kids were jumping off the pier into the water—suddenly every little activist group pops up claiming we're shaming San Diego or whatever.
Screw them too, I guess.

Just to be clear, I’m not some hardcore hooligan and I wouldn't get into a brawl over a sports logo, but the people acting tough until they actually take a hit and then crying about it... it's a bit much.

Which media figures are we talking about? Those guys on the news? Why do they assume they speak for every single fan out there? Just because they have a microphone doesn't mean everyone else shares their headspace.
That guy Prodanovic acted like a total coward; his whole career depends on it, so he just ends up backpedaling.

I honestly think we’re all losing our minds over here, just sitting around dissecting whether someone was being "soft," what counts as a real rivalry versus just some cheap provocation. It’s getting ridiculous because, according to these people, if you actually react to a dig, suddenly you're a total joke who can't take a joke. But then, if you’re the one throwing the shade, oh no, now you’ve got deep-seated insecurities or something—honestly, who gives a damn? One guy goes out purely to stir the pot and gets blasted for it, while the other guy stands there reciting this pathetic, scripted list of grievances like he’s in a high school debate club. I feel like I've seen this exact same drama play out a hundred times already, just with the players switching roles every single week.

Look, it’s not even about whether Prlja was making excuses or just trying to set the record straight now that he sees how much those idiots took a simple joke way too seriously. There isn't a shred of hate in those lyrics... honestly. It's just that once the loudmouth morons start screaming, everything spirals out of control...
Then you're stuck having to explain to these warmongering fools that what normal people see as a bit of banter, they somehow interpret as some deep-seated insult.

Did you guys see how the media handled that whole situation back when Vlasic was playing for West Ham in London?

Pancakes 🙂
My bad 🙂
Little kid 🙂

Both the Southerners and the folks from the North can go jump in a lake

Is that Plenković sitting on the bench for the Šibenik squad?
Where did they all go? — Honestly, I feel like I'm looking at an empty parking lot after a stadium event.

That jacket from Canada is actually pretty wild

honestly, it looks more like some kind of raincoat worn by a literal harbinger of doom

It's because people like that hold sway over your mindless crowd. Just look at the reactions here—how many guys folded immediately. It's absurd...
If by "livelihood" you mean money, then no, that isn't it...
