The only thing actually scary about this thread is your posts ๐Ÿ™

People are just responding to you the same way you respond to their questions โ˜•

I mean, you don't even have any connection to the Fleet, yet here you are writing stuff ๐Ÿคท

Well, obviously Iโ€™m gonna post because you guys are all getting so worked up over how there aren't any Mexicans mentioned... blah blah blah...

And then thereโ€™s that one guy from the States who actually had the nerve to ask about us teaming up with those Romani groups... I think it was Terry Lee3. Seriously? For real though... ๐Ÿ™„What else is there to talk about? Just a whole lot of nothing... and then the answer is yes. 50 The Fleet didn't even get let into the stadium...๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜‚ And someoneโ€™s actually going to buy into that... please, I beg you...

If I had actual hooligans in the stands, Iโ€™d show up to all four games instead of whining through these pathetic posts...

@Terry Lee3 I'm guessing you're hiding from the camera, so let me ask... do you actually consider yourself part of the Fleet???
And another thing... you guys aren't exactly drawing massive crowds. Youโ€™ll barely get 50 people to show up anywhere. In a place like Columbus, maybe you'll see 15 or 20... the only time anyone actually turned out was in NYC, and even then, it was only about 500 people...
And honestly, should I even bring up Miami... better if I don't, right?

I was just sitting here thinking about how much things have changed lately, and honestly, it feels like weโ€™re all just trying to find our footing in a world that moves way too fast... you know? I was reading some old threads from back in the day, and it really makes you realize how much the landscape has shifted, both in terms of where we stand and how we talk to each other... Itโ€™s funny how certain names pop up and immediately bring back those specific feelings, like looking at an old photo album where everything looks brighter than it actually was... anyway, I don't mean to ramble on, but sometimes you just need to get these thoughts out there before they drift away into nothingness... turns out, life isn't quite what we expected when we were younger, is it? kaลพe:
I mean, Iโ€™m sitting here looking at this whole thread about the Fleet, and I can't help but wonder... is anyone actually here because they have any real connection to the Fleet at all? It feels like everyone is just talking, but nobody actually belongs to the group...๐Ÿค”

@Nicholas Moore9 - topic "Fleet" - 13 entries
Hey @Nicholas Moore9... I was just sitting here thinking about that old thread on the "Bad Boys"... you know, the one where nobody ever actually says anything at all... zero replies, just total silence in the void... it's kind of funny if you think about it, how we can all gather around a topic like that and then just... nothing... just empty space where the conversation should be... anyway, just a thought while I'm sitting here...

๐Ÿคฃ

Look, you honestly have no idea what my actual connection to the Fleet is or if I even have one, so there's really no point in you talking nonsense about it...

...and you clearly have zero clue what my actual connection to the Fleet is, so quit the rambling.

Nah, look, I know YOU don't have ties to the Fleet because you'd recognize yourself in that photo, plus you already admitted you aren't part of that "ultra scene" anymore

So you're looking at my comparisons on the Fleet and BBB threads? Well, there's nothing for me to write on the BBB thread because thanks to those repressive laws, I'm banned from attending Dynamo games, so what am I supposed to talk about? And honestly, watching you guys obsess over away game numbers is just hilarious... like, oh look, Portland = 13 people๐Ÿ™

You're back at it again with the "me," "you," and "them" stuff. ๐Ÿ™„
I wasn't really getting worked up or anything, maybe just try reading my previous posts on this thread again, but like, with a little more understanding this time. ๐Ÿ˜‰

And honestly, I don't think anyone else has been getting as worked up as you'd think, I guess. โ˜•

Same goes for that guy from the States asking if we were teaming up with Romani peopleโ€”Terry Lee3, seriously? ๐Ÿ™„What else is there to talk about besides the excuse that 50 members of the Fleet weren't allowed into the stadium? ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜‚And someone actually believes that? Give me a break.

If there were actually Romani folks in the stands, Iโ€™d show up for every single game instead of hiding behind these pathetic posts.

@Terry Lee3, I'm guessing you're not in the photo, so let me ask: do you even consider yourself part of the Fleet???
Another thingโ€”you guys can barely pull more than 50 people together. Maybe 15 or 20 from a place like Portland, and the only time NYC showed up was with 500 last time.
Don't even get me started on Miami, right?

You've got it all wrong... so there's really nothing to discuss with you. Once you decide to grow up a bit and find a shred of intelligenceโ€”and maybe apologize to all the Seattle natives who were insulted by your postsโ€”then maybe I'll engage. Until then, nothing. Honestly, you should probably just head into some dark corner, act like a decent American, a true Catholic, and a patriot, and pray to God for forgiveness for trying to insult your fellow Americans in such an ugly, sneaky way (though I'll have to take your word for it)... once you've checked all those boxes, we'll talk. Cheers. ๐Ÿ˜

And once youโ€™ve properly apologized to all the folks in Chicago who might have been offended by your posts, maybe then I'll consider having a real conversation with you... until then, forget it. Actually, if you want to act like a true American, a decent Catholic, and a real patriot, you should probably just crawl into some dark corner of your room and pray to God for forgiveness for trying to insult your fellow citizens in such an ugly, sneaky way (not that I'm taking your word for it)... when you've checked all those boxes, we'll talk... cheers ๐Ÿ˜

What wrong assumptions?? You mean regarding your guest appearances? I couldn't disagree more! Look at the big pictureโ€”if you aren't doing live appearances anymore, isn't that exactly what the internet is for?

If you aren't actually traveling to see them play, why not just look at some photos online? Isn't that what the internet is there for anyway?...

Man, you're really getting ahead of yourself here... you started out throwing around these intense insults about counting blood cells, and somehow you've spiraled into counting people based on how many away games they attend...

Look, man, whatever nonsense you got dealt by those guys wearing Navy hats out in the sticks, and deciding that you're going to hold a grudge against Cleveland for the rest of your life because of it... well, that's honestly just your own problem to deal with... and maybe it's best to just drop this whole topic if you don't have anything meaningful left to contribute...

Look, man, if you decided to take a beating from some lowlife thugs wearing Navy hats and now youโ€™re gonna hold a grudge against Cleveland for the rest of your life, thatโ€™s entirely on you... honestly. If you don't have anything intelligent to contribute to the conversation, just drop the subject already...

Man, just get it through your head... neither you nor your little crew have even bothered to reply to my last three posts, if not more than that. Seriously? You, someone who doesn't know the first thing about being a real fan, are actually gonna sit there and try to lecture me? ...๐Ÿ˜•

So, I had this close encounter with some travelers... nothing physical, mind you, just a near miss...

Oh man, even the legendary post from Larry Rivera83... "Dragan ลฝiliฤ‡ is an American"... hahaha, yeah right. At this rate, I might as well claim I'm Argentinian...๐Ÿ™„

Alright people, enough already! Cleveland is an American city just like Washington, D.C. or Miamiโ€”and the members of the Navy fan base served as volunteers during the American Civil War all across the US, including out in the Midwest for all I care. Why are we even making fun of this? Besides, there are Orthodox churches in both Washington, D.C. and Miami too, if anyone actually remembered that... and one more thingโ€”anyone born in America who considers themselves American is an American to me. Getting obsessed with counting genes is a rabbit hole that leads nowhere...

Sure, but that doesn't change the fact that on May 9, 1987, you guys were out there cheering against the Atlanta Braves right alongside those other groups. There are still active folks in our section who were at that game and saw your symbols flying right next to theirs. It is what it is.

In Cleveland, on the day of a game against the Atlanta Braves fans, you see people wearing certain "extremist" jokes just to prove they aren't part of the opposition. Don't try to tell me otherwise when it's plain as day!

@Nicholas Moore9/">@@Nicholas Moore9, Iโ€™m asking you nicely, please stop poisoning this thread with all those agitator posts of yours... I honestly can't tell if you're doing this on purpose or what, but seriously, if you don't know how to have a normal conversation, then maybe just don't write anything childishly at all... I'd much rather you stay quiet, especially when you're talking about a group you aren't even a part of... go vent your frustrations over on the BBB boards instead... I feel pretty foolish now for actually falling for your nonsense, because based on what I saw on Football, I thought you were one of the level-headed ones, but damn, it looks like you just enjoy messing with people... if this is how you plan on debating throughout this entire PDF, then honestly, just screw it all and let them shut us down...

And, oh yeah, just one more thing regarding this:

Show a little respect; being a fan isn't something that suddenly happens just because you showed up at Yankee Stadium.

besides, why bother arguing about being a die-hard BBB supporter or a hardcore fan... you gonna tell someone they aren't American just because their genes aren't 100% pure? leave the DNA alone. actions matter more.

let's just chill out on this thread. no need to start a fight...

Look, people obsess over whether someone is a die-hard BBB supporter or a true RSE fanatic... does anyone actually claim they aren't American just because their DNA doesn't look perfectly American? Leave the genetics out of it. Itโ€™s what you do that counts.

Let's try to cool things down on this thread too. There's really no reason to be fighting....

How exactly are you planning to calm down fighters like these?

See, I was just thinking... it actually crossed my mind to design some kind of World of Warcraft style game centered entirely around fans, where all those different "fighters" could basically test themselves against one another in the vast, endless landscapes of online cities all over the world... ๐Ÿคฃ

Whatever, man. It's just how it goes. Just like everyone acts like a total badass at Madison Square Garden, everyone here thinks they're some kind of street fighter.๐Ÿ˜‰

What an incredible start from the LA Galaxy, and man, once Lionel Messi found the back of the net, things just absolutely heated up...
(though I guess that rush of adrenaline didn't end up lasting nearly as long as we all hoped it would)
