    Today in Crew history your boy @hangthadj was recognized as one of the top fans.

    This isn’t about me though. This is about all of us. I know I couldn’t have done this without each and everyone of you.

    I’d like to especially thank @chr1st for being a one time pseudo campaign chair for the realist fan competition and @zman31 for kicking me in the nuts underground in DC. These both humbled me in unique ways and helped to keep me grounded.

    But again, this is about all of us. I love you, and I thank you. #blessed #onelove

    If you need additional kicks in the nuts, I think we can find some volunteers on this board...

    The SKC thread appears locked so Ill post here. Was at skc game but watching game on dvr now. Pre game with a graphic as below:
    SKC- Last in West
    Orlando- 9th in East
    RSL - 7th in West
    Sounders - 3rd in West
    Dwight, viewing this graphic, described it as a tough stretch for the Crew. I am getting really tired of this kind of thing. This was presumably a prepared remark. To describe Last, 9th, 7th, 3rd as a tough stretch is so blatantly apologetic to the Crew. I dont expect him to bash the Crew but there has to be some semblance of honesty in his commentary.

    Sweet baby jeebus, why would you do that to yourself. This is a cry for help if I've ever heard one.

    LOL. I couldnt remember the goal and was only planning to fast forward right to it. I caught a graphic of the standings and figured Id just watch that too to see what they said.

    Some folks have been selected multiple times. I thought after one lost that the poster was voted off Bigsoccer.

    Seconded, and not only that but the thread is full of commenters that bring back fond memories, and remind me of how much we've all grown.

    I'm too centrist. I'm going to have to move my postings to one of the extremes and make a run for 2020. Now, do I go full Sunshine Brigade, or total Chicken Little? Tough call.

    Third option: Full on "I'm just happy to have a team to watch, everything else is bonus."

    I love how the notification that you are a 'top fan' is shown on top of your screen saver for a different sports team playing a different sport. Some 'top fan' you are...

    No, no. You be you. There is only one you. You are special.

    Okay. I have been watching a little too many Daniel Tiger episodes lately with my kids.


    Hmm. Starting to wonder if @stanger was not off with his allegations against hang's fandom.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is the first time a BS poster compared himself to Sir Thomas More.

    The hubris is spectacular, among other things.

    Don't wonder too hard. If you were paying attention you may have noticed I admitted to my best frenemy that the Phillies were on of three teams I religiously follow on a daily basis along with Roma and the Crew.
