    There's this team that a few of you might have heard of, apparently it's where the Galaxy got Beckham from, and since he's now coming to MLS, so should his old team

    They already have a big stadium, so no need to build them a SSS

    We already have a Real Salt Lake in MLS, so it makes total financial sense to add a Real Mardrid too (esp since I am talking about other people spending their own money on this, not me)

    if this isn't a satirical thread then you are just wasting space. Why this pointless drivel. Find something better to do with your time. Really, MLS and SUM buy Real Madrid. Let me guess, you want them to relocate to Madrid, Alabama so MLS has a footprint in the south?

    Finally MLS can buy a team that's not likely to be relegated soon.

    Just incase you were serious...

    Real Madrid has roughly 80,000 owners. Its a club owned by its fans, so I don't know how exactly you plan on convincing 80,000 people to do so. Those 80,000 people vote a person to run the club, but that person cannot sell it even if he wanted to.

    You... um... nominated Savannah's post for "Dumbest Post Thread" in World Rivalries.

    Ppl. How on earth can you take Savannah's post/thread as "serious"???? I know it's only a small handful, but seriously...

    I typed the title out exactly like this guy, that posts a "MLS Owners should buy this English Team" post every other week... With the same lame reasons for some un-named MLS owners to plunk millions (of their own dollars down), in return for some supposed financial windfall/way to make MLS better...

    But in some distant way you thought it was something other than just me slamming his endless stream of stupid posts.

    duh.

    If you read the other threads about MLS buying English clubs, the sarcasm of this one was evident right away.

    Um.

    If you read the opening phrase... you knew it was sarcasm!

    There's this team that a few of you might have heard of

    Who hasn't heard of Real Madrid?

    and if that's not enough:

    apparently it's where the Galaxy got Beckham from,
    :rolleyes:

    And who hasn't heard that the Galaxy got Becks from RM?

    Why stop at Real?

    Why not the entire Liga?

    What do you expect when you fail to use the [sarcasm] tag?

    [sarcasm] example [/sarcasm]

    Thanks for the advice, I was going to use the much longer [If you think this is for real, you are an idiot] version, but your suggestion should work too.

    This thread isn't sarcastic, it just makes no sense. A sarcastic thread would of implied a team that could at least be purchased by someone with top $. Real Madrid can't be bought by anyone. Football clubs in Spain are social institutions owned by society...

    I'm not the one that started a needless thread, although I did reply to it. I wish I could have the last 5 minutes of my life back.

    Screw Real Madrid, buy Europe. That way no one needs to pick and choose between teams, MLS owns them ALL *insert maniacal laugh here*

    Too bad this is not the rivals forum, so I can use the appropriate amount of foul language that a proper response to you needs.

    Suffice to say, you missed the point, and I doubt this will be the first, nor will it be the last time it happens to you.

    My brother lives in Fletcher. Next time I am up there, maybe. As long as you don't drink domestic light beers.
