FC Königsberg 1724 [R for Results and Rhetoric]

[Dead Fingers]

Just a test

Editors note. This is a fictitious team and everything IN this thread has nothing to do with reality...except the Landon Donovan rumors. Those are true...I swear on the blood of a goat.

Actually, Königsberg's main clubs were VfB Königsberg and Prussia Samland Königsberg. Old-Skool!:

Bezirk Ostpreußen 1927/28
1. VfB Königsberg 12 44:18 22:2
2. SpVgg. Memel 12 27:26 15:9
3. Prussia Samland Königsberg 12 43:27 14:10
4. SV Insterburg 11 19:29 10:12
5. Rasensport-Preußen Königsberg 10 19:28 8:12
6. Viktoria Allenstein 12 23:29 8:16
7. Rastenburger SV 11 15:33 3:19

Show of hands. How many people KNEW Alex would be the first one in here to post?

*raises hand.

But, did he catch the 1724 reference?

1724: Jonas Alströmer introduces the potato to Sweden!





(I admit, I looked that up on Wikipedia while looking for some cool random thing that happened in 1724. Kant's birthday would be another possibility, but this would surely make no sense...)

[Dead Fingers]

Kant's birth year would be correct.

Anyway, I think this area would be fine for the rest of the team threads.

I see there is no [r] in the thread title... can we still discuss VfB Königsberg's latest results? I mean, they happened 60+ years ago, so this should have been time enough for everyone to watch his tapes...

Hey, i cheared so much to watch the tapes and you destroyed my fun :( ... :D

So i had to choose a new team from the city: Baltika Kaliningrad (2nd Russian division) (http://www.eufo.de/football/rus/2007/baltgrad.htm) :)

Just a test

Nearly correct.

The Club name was "FC 1900 Königsberg".

A few years diff. -:)

Come on you 1724s!

*genie mode on*

Greatest thread in BS history

*genie mode off*

Lets kick this thread repeatedly!

[Dead Fingers]

I hear Donovan is thinking about making a come back.

[Dead Fingers]

I do like their blue uniforms, but I think the tricorns are going to have to go. Just no place for that on the pitch.

[Alex_K]

I always thought there was something fishy about Königsberg's 1:12 home loss against Viktoria Berlin in the 1909 championship play-offs. Can't proof it, though. But I think the ref was bought by the Berlin team. Or the Kaiser. Or both.

[The Old Lady Hertha]

I reckon those Social Democrats and their hippie ways brought about this :mad:

I wouldn't have expected you to be a member of the reactionary bourgoisie.

Forwards, comrades!
