So far there is no motive,but firing into a crowd of unarmed people is a pussah move. Fight like a effin man. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5520984.html
For chrissake, that's awful. And the mainstream media is going to pick up on this no doubt to show how soccer leads to violence, etc.
Thats one of the major problems that the sport is going to face in this country. The black eye that is has received b/c of violence in other countries(and now here)is going to be hard to erase. I know all the MLS supporters groups want to be tough guys and act like Frodo Baggins in Green Street but we should all take this into account. If the violence gets out of hand at MLS or Nats games it can cripple the sport.
Damn Cosmos now I see what you mean about the Mexican forum.About 5 of my posts got sent to the trash bin over there,they run that board like Nazis lol.
i was just reading that reports are the perp was NOT a u.s. fan, but just some dude driving down the street. something was apparently said to him and he flipped. unfortunately still a black eye for soccer in the u.s.
ED ..I was thinking the same thing...doh Hey ..in the last 5 years ..you've had 2 stabbing 's at Jets games...no one bitching about that
yeah the other one was a Pats fan...Yeah the kid stabbed the other jets fan because he was wearing a Chad Pennington Jersey..wtf ?..Now I could see if he was wearing a Richard Todd jersey
Turns out it wasnt a US fan,just a passer by. Lesson learnedont get beer balls and throw bottles at peoples cars.This isnt a soccer game in Europe or SA.Over here you might get plugged.
Hahaha that was effed up when the Jets fans booed when Chad got hurt. But you dont see those incidents in the news but if/when it happens at a soccer game you will get the "This is why we dont want this sport in the US!" bullS
although we cant say that to much because with the GATE D charades being on the news this year - if its good enough the news will present it!!
That's one of my main gripes with the swamp..they go WAY overboard with soccer crowds..but American football fans can do anything they please out there.
That shite has been going on for a while...not the girls pulling up their shirts..but the guys throwing stuff at ALL the gates..not just D...those morons just ruined the smoking spot too
oh yea - Gate D has been going on a while and for the stabbing - i wouldnt for richard Todd - maybe Neil Odonnell or Browning Nagel
I don't know if its still up on You Tube...but Jets fans go there in between quarters to smoke..guys used to throw change down to the bottom of the spiral ..guys would go to collect it..and get hit with beer spit and piss..one guy thought he was slick and brought an umbrella ..he started collecting the money..and someone threw a JD bottle right through and hit him in the head..from there..it became the spot where chicks would lift up their shirts..someone put it on You tube..the rest is history
That's what I'm saying..why do the meadowlands crack down on soccer fans cheering for their team..but allow this to go on..You said something last week..that I think its true..its because its not considered American..I agree with that
Hahaha and who says we dont have crazy fans in the US lolol?A effin JD bottle? You know I love my JD,thats a heavy damn bottle.
