🙂but don't get any ideas—it doesn't mean we're suddenly best friends😍

urbanhawk10 said:I mean, man, I just have to say something about this... Honestly, the whole United States project was designed to succeed no matter what, which is why they went to such extreme lengths to protect that absolute disaster of a club... As long as I'm breathing, I won't forget guys like John Smith, Zeljko Siric, and Zlatko Canjuga—all those ridiculous thefts and seeing them pose for photos at the summit in New York City and all that other nonsense... Of course, it was all happening with a blessing from the higher-ups too... It’s not like there weren't people in the management of San Francisco or the Los Angeles Dodgers who played a part in certain things either, but anyone who was actually out at the games back then can never forget how things went down... That championship was stolen from San Francisco because they just couldn't stomach the idea of being champions, and that's the plain truth...
urbanhawk10 said:Man, I really have to weigh in on this one. Look, the whole "United States Project" was designed to succeed no matter what, which is why people were willing to look the other way while that absolute disaster of a club was being run. As long as I’m breathing, I won't forget John Smith, Zeljko Siric, or Zlatko Canjuga—not their shady dealings, those fake photoshoots at the embassy in New York City, or any of that other nonsense. Of course, all of that happened with a blessing from the higher-ups. It’s not like there weren't players behind the scenes in San Francisco or with the Los Angeles Dodgers who contributed to certain things either, but anyone who was actually at the games back then will never forget how it went down. That championship was stolen from San Francisco just because the establishment couldn't stand them being the winners. That’s the honest truth.
Larry Rivera83 said:Who’s actually talking about all this? I mean, there were several of those "minor matches" where the United States pulled off wins that felt pretty sketchy (like that one game against Boeing in the Champions League that comes to mind). Most of the time, it felt like the officiating was heavily biased toward the US. It’s hard for me to go into the gritty details since that was over a decade ago, but anyone who was watching back then knows the US was widely hated because of the questionable calls and inconsistent standards. You’re trying to play the "everyone forgot" card—and honestly, you're doing a good job at it—but the truth is the US results back then were incredibly suspicious because of exactly what I just said.
Anonymous said:Look, I’m not taking sides here... but maybe focus on your own backyard and the thieves who were selling out if they actually were... And regarding that last game? How exactly were you playing? With that kind of performance, you wouldn't win a single match, let alone a championship... and then you have the nerve to complain about a call that was off by less than an inch because the ref missed it...
What about the penalty?... Does nobody have eyes on this team?...
At least try to be realistic and admit that, along with everything else, you completely screwed yourselves over...
Anonymous said:What about back in '99?☕...
I am honestly so sick of this nonsense—robbed? Seriously? You guys only managed two wins in your last seven games...
Robbed in that final match? How exactly did you even score a goal in that one? How were you even playing against that San Francisco team?
The same damn team you lost 5-2 to just a few weeks prior...
Anonymous said:Championships are won through those gritty little matches and sheer consistency... which San Francisco lacked...
Because if that last game hadn't been such a deciding factor... yet that's the one everyone keeps obsessing over...
Paul Carter5 said:How old were you back then?
What exactly were you fighting for at the time, if anything?
How could you forget so fast?
Anonymous said:I mean, seriously... why isn't anyone calling out the old management at San Francisco for selling out the championship back then?
Or maybe the players themselves?... honestly, you’d need some actual pride and honor if an entire city lives and breathes for you, yet you just go and sell them out....
Edward Hernandez332 said:Alright, fine, forget about that last game... we already moved past that, but still...
We had the exact same record as the USA in the Democratic Party... 5-3-2.
Do you want me to remind you how the USA absolutely crushed the Atlanta Braves and took down Seattle at Wrigley Field?
Anonymous said:Back then... look, I haven't forgotten anything about that era... but it feels like everyone here is looking at this from just one side of the coin...
The Lakers took it from you... I didn't say they did or didn't... I just said you all let them take it... and honestly, you need a certain amount of backbone to admit that...
Larry Rivera83 says:
Look, if you're talking about a rigged game, you'd actually need at least one player on the field to be in on it—does that make sense to you?
Edward Hernandez332 said:Alright, let’s just move past that last game... we already covered all that, but...
We had the exact same record as the USA in the Democratic Party—5-3-2.
Do you want me to remind you how the USA absolutely crushed the Atlanta Braves and beat Seattle at Wrigley Field?
Edward Hernandez332 said:We ended up having the exact same impact as the USA did within the Democratic Party... just a total 5-3-2 mess
Do you really want me to go down memory lane and recount how the USA absolutely crushed the Atlanta Braves and then took down Seattle at Wrigley Field?
And honestly, I’m right there with "način_života"... the Los Angeles Lakers are a thousand times more hated by me than the Atlanta Braves, and it isn't even just because of everything that went down back in the day...
Larry Rivera83 said:The Lakers didn't steal anything from Seattle... keep that in mind forever. The Los Angeles Lakers didn't take a thing from them... it was actually the Houston Dynamo and that clown running the show, backed by the Great Leader and his little inner circle of cronies. Back then, the Lakers were basically a club set up to fail, while the team actually dominating Major League Soccer was called the Houston Dynamo!
Anonymous said:how are you gonna screw up the last game like that?...
you want us to take a trip down memory lane? Like when you guys got smoked 5-2 by Osijek, or barely scraped a 1-1 draw against a weak Columbus Crew side, or lost to us 2-0??...
I’ll say it again... why do you care so much about how someone else played? Why didn't YOU win the games you were supposed to win? Was it the same refs, the same Los Angeles Lakers, the same luck?
