So what's the story now? How soon will it be when we find out if we got the slot? This thread died off and the news cycle is quiet.
Agreed. Make some room. I'll bring plenty of whatever you're drinking. FWIW, my new favorite number is 28, just in case.
Me too. Every night. Because he’s dying out here. And spending every day and night hat in hand, on the phones, pleading Sacramento’s case. And time is running out. David vs Goliath and Goliath is winning. https://t.co/U0aqzPnOGn— Carmichael Dave (@CarmichaelDave) December 31, 2017 I can’t say. Probably already saying too much. But if no one steps up to help our guys, well.....it’s academic at that point. https://t.co/yc8DNfSm6W— Carmichael Dave (@CarmichaelDave) December 31, 2017
Someone told me they heard Steinberg say "he expected to find out in two months". I'm OK with that as long as we are the ones selected.
Seems like the delay is for Sacramento. I don't get the sense that they want Detroit or cinc. They're giving our lame ownership a chance, beyond measure, to scrape up enough money to pay the cover at the nightclub. Nutmeg wasn't really in, not really. The Kraft family were in for the stadium business because that's their schtick. We never really had a true backer in the billionaire category. That's a shame. We had such a long time to line it up and... came up empty handed. I'm rather depressed about it. Our one true backer is in over his head as evidenced by this cluster f debacle. Thanks for letting me vent.
Ditto that’s why it’s gonna hurt even more knowing it was for Sacramento, all things are adding up that that was a fact
When they begrudgingly announce cincinatti as the #2, I will continue paying my battalion dues because, well, I'm a battalion brother. Will i continue going to games? No, probably not. I won't be able to "support" the organization.
Why are you even trolling Sacramento expansion? You’ve shat on Sacramento and are an Ultra. You don’t have to pretend to be something else again, QuakesForever.
Trolling Sac expansion? LOL, I want you in the league, so I can keep on shatting on ya Right now you're just a minnow, barely worth my time. So get your shit together and get in the league so we can trade more barbs. And for the last time, I am not QuakesForever. Neither am I an Ultra, though I always wholeheartedly approve their actions Our Ultras sing win or lose, way better than your supporter group full of dirt-poor Bay Area rejects and farmer-wannabe hipsters can ever hope to be LOL
You had me until you went all-out-dick. I'm a proud member of the Tower Bridge Battalion and I could cite stories about the language the Ultras use during games. One could argue that its quite trashy. This would match the shirtless appearance. Unfortunately, i will continue to follow the quakes as long as it is the closest mls team.
I don't need to "trade barbs." You are dripping with insecurity. You are of the mindset that you need enemies to define yourself, that if you aren't hating other fans or in some never-ending competition puffing your chest or sparring then you aren't doing your soccer fandom right. That mentality is so pathetically sad - you really need more in your life to have more meaning than that. You are an Ultra, and I've met you in person once, and I also follow you (QuakesForever) on Twitter so I do keep tabs on what you say and how you portray yourself in this forum, in the Quakes forum, and other places like Reddit. Please stop trying to cause drama and fight for no reason other than you think you have to because you're insecure that you don't have enough soccer cred. Grow up, just watch the sport for fun and support your team, it's as simple as that. The Ultras are mostly wannabe frat boys (though I do know honest, friendly members) looking to start a fight because they're insecure with themselves - so it's no surprise you fit right in. You guys tried to fight my cousin who was a Galaxy fan once because he waved to an acquaintance (who is a member of the Ultras) as he was leaving a bar. Just one anecdote in the long history of absurdities carried out by the Ultras. But then again, I've had this discussion with you before.
Oh no, but the Ultras never do anything harmful or offensive or break any rules/laws... They are a completely positive and friendly group who's only crime is they love their team too much! They are innocent of everything and any time they are reprimanded it's not because they willfully broke any rules or laws, but because people unfairly crack down on and pick on them for no reason at all!
And they're still holding the original Supporters Shield - which never belonged to them. They definitely don't play well with others.
