So can anyone relate here??? I'm a HUGE Galaxy fan and have been since '96. My boyfriend grew up and lives in Norcal and so is for the Earthquakes. Grrrr!!!!!! Anyone else have conflicts as such. This is the only team we disagree on. Our English team is ManU, Spanish team is Real Madrid, just our MLS teams differ. Ha! And that's my #1 out of all. Anyhow....I'm not posting saying this might break us up or anything. I just wanted to know if anyone else has something like this. PS: I watched the Boca-River (Argentina) match the other day and they showed a couple. Guy wearing Boca Jrs jersey, girl wearing the River jersey and they got lots of airtime while they were hard-core making out. hahah.
I'd suggest some interesting game-day bets. Hopefully you'll easily win them all in the 1st year, at least.
I turned my friend into Galaxy fan, but his evil new girlfriend is trying to convert him to a Chivas USA fan.... Damn i hate her (jk)
I suggest that until he decides to straighten up, you change up all the bedroom talk. It should read as follows: "I want to smurf you so bad right now. I'm gonna lick up and down your smurf and then smurf your smurfing brains out. And then you can smurf all over me." This will achieve one of two things, either he will convert or I will get yellow carded.
Its this simple, just tell your boyfriend that your are dumping him for the following two reasons: 1) He is a Quake fan and lives in the ugly and boring side of California 2) because you decided that you are going to start dating "LASN" who is a real Galaxy fan and who lives in Sur Califas. Time has come to upgrade your life
it's funny, i've dated women with diametrically opposed political and theological views with no problem, but i don't think i could look past dating a quakes/chivas/arsenal fan. though politics and theology can foster passionate views, it's nothing compared to how soccer taps into the ancient, reptilian, part of my brain.
ha! We've already joked around about how we'll have to sit on opposite sides of the stadium for Clasico matches. Not to mention the arguing that may ensue...... We all know I will never EVER change sides!
"Yeah, she was an ultra-conservative, right-wing, born-again, bipolar, seal-clubbing, meat-eating, fur-wearing, one-eyed, peg-legged, false-teeth wearing, flat-chested, unemployed lawyer from Gilroy. But I was able to look past all of that... ...until I found out she was a Chivas Fan."
Man U??? Real Madrid??? Sounds like you're both just a bunch of glory hunters, why don't you just both dump the Quakes and Gals and root for DC or Houston instead?
Sounds like something Sawyer would say! Come on Trick! Get on the LOST crew ASAP! My daddy always told me that for the easiest life ahead of me, to try to pick a woman in life that shares my core values.... religion, politics, etc. I would also like to add sports teams to the list. Luckily my wife already loved soccer having dated some Russian players and some Italian players, but she was scared to go to a game here in America when she arrived. It took some months of convincing her that games here are much safer. Luckily for the rest of my life ahead of me I will have a soul mate that shares my passion in soccer and LA Galaxy. I highly recommend converting him to an LAG fan or easier yet, find an LAG fan for your soulmate. It will be so much better for you. And since most LAG guys resemble David Beckham in some way, its probably better for you anyways!
This is not original (I wish it were), but it is appropriate. When considering marriage: ALWAY marry a girl from Texas. Because no matter how bad things get, she's seen worse.
What an assumption. Sounds like you're an a-hole. Why don't you just dump DC for the Virginia Beach REO's?
Not that there is anything wrong with that Quake fan. On the topic of dating a man or woman that shares your core beliefs, let me share this with you. My wife hated sports of all types when we met. Religion, politics, red meat we could agree on. In the summer of 1998, right after we got married, I took her shopping in Paris for two weeks. Yes, in the middle of the World Cup! I have a hall pass for life my friends.
