Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread I apologize in advance if I'm getting this wrong. Are you suggesting that because a group of Revolution supporters got rear-ended by their FO, a group of Columbus Crew fans at Columbus Crew Stadium should stop cheering the Columbus Crew for a short period of time in support of another team's fans? I mean hey, fellas, do what you want, but I don't get it. We've had supporters' issues over the years too. I don't recall other groups around the league doing protests on your behalf when you were getting bad press over throwing streamers. I sure as all HELL don't remember any Revs fans coming to your defense after the Dube/YouTube/Drunky the Racist Douchebag (Copyright Steve Sirk 2008) incident. Like I said... Do what you want, but I don't see why they can't deal with their own issues themselves.
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread You're a "one for all, and all for one" kinda guy, aren't you?
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread I get what you are saying. but i feel like our incidents were people in our section acting f-ing stupid (streamers debatable). where as this is just an SG being a normal SG doing what SGs do and their FO came down on them in an inappropriate manner. Even with our incidents, the FO didn't come down on us. We did some self-policing and worked with our FO. Couple the combativeness of the Revs FO with just a long frustration with their owners, I understand the sympathy.
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread So I'm watching the U-21 Euro Championships between Spain and Switzerland and it comes to me. The Spanish are a pretentious group of pricks. Even at the youth levels. I will never cheer for them. Yeah I'm done. Just had to get that off my chest.
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread I literally walked to the computer to type this. It seems pretty apparent that every child born in the country has an issue with balance and pain tolerance.
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread Been one heck of a first half. One of the more entertaining games that I have seen so far this year. I just want a tie.
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread Donovan Ricketts crashes into a Quakes player in the box. While both players are on the ground the San Jose SG starts chanting "F&^% You Ricketts!!" San Jose. Keepin it classy!

Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread Did they earn this? http://www.usatoday.com/sports/soccer/2011-06-22-868009042_x.htm Shite I should've been more thorough A friend of mine was at that match, said it was like a mass-breakdown...20k mad and sad at the same time...are the players to blame? Prolly should have just deleted this redundancy but that seemed cowardly...i must get up to speed on the etiquette.. Seems to be an example of supporters exerting their influence; belatedly and poorly
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread That. That was amazing. Saunders even smacked a little kid trying to high five's hand away in a mean fasion on his way out. Wow.
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread That play makes me glad Lenhart is no longer on the Crew. He should have seen a straight red for that idiotic play (or at least a yellow and then another yellow for the acting job after the elbow).
Re: Adopted Cousin of Other Teams' News Thread Sunday will be the mother of all law enforcement objectives in and around Estadio Monumental, especially if they lose the match.
