Bad Boys - Part IV

Jonathan Anderson11 said:Why on earth would they do that?!?

It’s probably because they cut the gathering short and ended up slapping them with a way smaller fine than usual.

Look, guys, the biggest issue with American fanbases, including our own group, is this constant, toxic negativity.

Just chill out already. Today is huge for the club. We aren't flying solo anymore; players, the media, even the local authorities are finally starting to step up. The vibe is actually building, while the Boss is clearly getting squeezed from every angle...
EVERYONE TO INDIANAPOLIS!!!

Jonathan Anderson11 said:Why on earth would they do that?!?

It’s because he’s eighteen years old and hasn't got a clue what he's doing. Let me tell you, his age isn't going to act as a shield here; the punishment is going to be just as heavy, whether we're talking about massive fines or whatever else the judge decides to throw at him.

Austin Lee24 said:Šimić and Bišćan were guests on the national live broadcast, basically repeating everything they're saying today... Bišćan even brought up the crackdown on the fans. At least someone 👍
finally spoke up.

You can check out the recording here if anyone's interested..

Before heading to court, I talked things over with some older guys I know—did exactly what they advised me to do... and honestly? When I got to the station, they told me there’s no way I’m paying a fine since I’m a minor and don't have any income of my own. Plus, the ruling says the judge thinks there's no risk of me repeating the offense, so instead of a ban, I just got slapped with community service.

Michael Stewart3 said:The gap between us is massive, honestly.
They basically threw us a bone by getting rid of those vouchers, and we swallowed it whole like a bunch of total amateurs.

👍👍

Finally, someone actually said it. I’ve been scrolling through three days of absolute nonsense waiting for someone to speak the truth.
It’s clear that the idea of fans uniting actually terrified them, so they scrapped the vouchers, and then the local ultras acted like complete idiots by celebrating it.
If you had even an ounce of common sense, when they announced the cancellation of those vouchers, you should have stood up and said:
Go to hell, gentlemen. We will stay united until every last one of you is gone; from this moment on, we play by our own rules.

Does he actually live in America?🤷

🤣🤣🤣

Don't sweat it then, you came out fine—it's almost like it never even happened. 😉

If you had even a shred of common sense, when they announced the voucher cancellation, you should have just said:
"Screw you guys, we're staying united until you're all gone. From now on, we play by our own rules."

Let's look at this from a different angle. Who does this "truce" actually serve? Who wants to hand everything back over to the hooligans? And I wonder if there are people in other groups who also benefit from this—meaning, total pushovers.

We can keep going like this until tomorrow...

But since we're all massive hypocrites, none of us are any better or more deserving than the rest.
So, shall we go back to arguing about the derby and who started what and why?🙂

Just chill out for once, man, because today is actually a massive day for the club. Finally, we aren't out here on our own anymore; you can see the players, the media, even the big institutions starting to step up... A real atmosphere is finally building, and it’s pretty obvious the Big Boss is running into trouble from pretty much every angle now...

EVERYONE GET TO INDIANAPOLIS!!!

Wednesday at 5 PM, second leg of the Cup semifinals!

Honestly, the whole thing just leaves me feeling totally deflated. I get this nagging sense that we’re constantly on the verge of making a breakthrough, but then we inevitably find some way to trip over our own feet and blow it all. It’s like we’re stuck in this cycle where we can't actually fight back against the real issues because we keep sabotaging ourselves. At this rate, if we keep playing it this way, we could be stuck in this exact same mess for another twenty years.

Just caught the sports segment on ABC News a few minutes ago. They finally gave a realistic look at how things are actually going with Real Madrid, and Veli provided some spot-on commentary right after the clip. Maybe he finally shut down Mamke and his crew too...

Ever since Mamic went after their reporter, I think ABC News has been playing it a bit safe with them.😉

casualrider43 said:I couldn't agree more. In Switzerland, they’re all shouting about how united fans will somehow rescue American soccer from this absolute swamp of a situation—and then, just two weeks later, the entire state of the game goes down the drain at 3 PM.
I honestly have to wonder who these people think they are. By what right are they breaking the truce that 95% of Americans actually support?
It’s pathetic. Just a frustrated little bottom-feeder who thinks the world revolves around them.

Hold on a second. You claim to be part of the Bad Boys, yet you don't even know which guys were actually involved in the conflict?! Hahaha, the characters we get on this forum are unbelievable.

Eric Phillips52 said:Hold on, you’re claiming to be part of the Bad Boys, yet you don't even know which guys were actually involved in the clash?!?! Hahaha, I can't believe some of the people posting here.

Frankly, I couldn't care less about who was standing where—I could look that up in two seconds if I actually gave a damn. My point is this: why are those guys essentially sabotaging themselves? If you want to act out, go find a field in the middle of nowhere to mess around in instead of destroying the positive energy we finally built together and blowing this truce to hell. Get it? A mere ten people managed to wreck a peace treaty that binds more than five hundred people (fans from every single group).
---------------------
Look, talking about the truce being broken is pointless now because it's already done; there's no undoing it. But I felt compelled to point out that this move only serves the interests of the mob.

The weather is finally starting to clear up, so maybe we could get together and hit some spots with some graffiti around town. I’m not talking about mindless scribbling or random messages, but rather painting things related to the club or our group—just something to spark some local interest and get people moving. It would be good to actually do something instead of just hanging out on this damn internet...

casualrider43 said:Honestly, I don't care who was involved—I could look that up myself if I actually gave a damn. What we should really be asking is why these guys are working so hard to sabotage themselves? If you want to act like total loners, go find some field in the middle of nowhere to hang out in instead of trashing the positive energy we all built together and blowing this whole truce. Think about it: ten people just managed to wreck a peace deal that connects hundreds of fans across all the different groups.

What kind of "truce" is it anyway when ten idiots can come along and ruin everything for everyone else? 🙄

casualrider43 said:I don't actually care who was involved—it’s not hard enough to look that up—but we really need to ask ourselves why these guys are working against their own interests. If you want to act like a loose cannon, go find some field to run around in instead of trashing the positive energy we've built and blowing this whole truce. Get this: ten people just managed to wreck a peace agreement that connects more than fifty people across all the different supporter groups.

So, you claim you don't know who they were, yet you feel entitled to declare war on everyone involved without knowing their identities, their standing within their respective groups, what they've sacrificed for the cause, or the weight they carry on their shoulders for the sake of the collective. You aren't even embarrassed to be fueling this conflict for days on end, neither yourself nor anyone else. Honestly, if you had any respect for the situation, you'd tip your hat to those guys. Instead, we get this "truce" nonsense followed by days of nothing but whining. It’s pathetic to hold people accountable for things they weren't even present for.

Eric Phillips52 said:So you clearly have no idea who they actually are, yet you’re out here picking fights with everyone involved. You don't know their standing in this group, what they've sacrificed for us, or the weight they carry on their shoulders just to keep this thing running. It’s embarrassing to watch you wage war for days on end—it's exhausting for everyone else, too. If you had any actual respect for the history here, you'd show some decency and give credit where it's due. But no, instead we get this endless cycle of fake peace and constant whining. People are making judgments about those who aren't even here to defend themselves.

Wow, carrying such a massive burden, are we? It’s funny how people like you always complain that others are "whining," while you spend every waking moment crying about your own "burden" and how much everyone just posts on this forum. Tell me your name so we can all get matching tattoos of it; that way, the world will finally understand exactly how much of a heavy load you've been dragging around. Honestly, I'm done talking to you.😉

Well, why don't you go ahead and drop all those names right here for the benefit of the entire forum audience? 🙂
