I've worn my original Fire scarf (the first one offered by the Fire) as an actual winter scarf many times before. It's not as warm as a couple of my other "for wear" scarves, but I'm trying to start a trend.
I guarantee that if somebody offered a plaid scarf with a fire logo on it, I'd buy one.( and probably many as gifts) AND I'd wear it everywhere in the winter. Absolutely. An all red bright ass scarf as offered by the team is hard to pull off, but a more subdued color pattern, I'm thinking a blue w/red plaid would work nice. Liam talked about a fashion type scarf on section8chicago.com and I was disappointed not to see one in the contest.
Ok, this made me smile a few times...whist seething with hatred. The scarf gives him satisfaction, and we can't let him have that. Tino Takes on the Fire edit: if the "We hate Tino" scarf gets made S8C should send him one...on a similar note: any one ever see the Indian Casino episode of South Park?
i wasnt going to vote for this because no matter what i would've been satisfied. but now the palace scarf gets one.
It must be done. Though, now I'm not a huge fan of the "we mess with Texas" part. Either way, Palace is an asshoIe.
I've been annoyed enough by his seemingly faux hatred of the Fire last season. Every article contained some kind of forced dig at the Fire. It was so lame that I gradually grew to dislike him and his column altogether. It would be one thing if they were actually funny, but his insults were so forced that I just couldn't respect them. The man is an ass.
At least the faux hatred of the Fire is better than the Faux Britishness of his early columns. Now he's just an average American Joe, but when the column started there was a real annoying continental-ness.
Who is Tino Palace and what are his soccer credentials? Is he a former player? All I know is he a wind-socking, Dallas-loving, Fire-Hating, limp-wristed, dim-witted, annoying writer who thinks he's humerous but actually just grew up in Minnesota.. hey dere..
I am greatly amused by the fact that one of the leading vote getters has "CF97" on it. First of all, I'm surprised that I have to let you chicks in on the secret, but your little band of mouthbreathers didn't start playing until 1998. But even that's a secondary consideration. The fact that that "CF97" or "CF98" or whatever is even making an appearance is to this FC Dallas 96 fan... what are the words I'm looking for here... oh yes... SO GOSH-DARNED CUTE! Really, you guys are truly adorable.
Note to Lone Star **************: http://chicago.fire.mlsnet.com/MLS/chf/about/ Our club's foundation date was 8 October 1997. What was yours, specifically? Buzz off before I point out that your landlocked redneckoplex is only in the league because it got Chicago's MLS team in 1994 or 1996 or whatever because the Anal Cranials running the league at the time couldn't broker an agreement with the park district for the use of Soldier Field.
Current tally as of 12.00a Friday. Polls close 11.59p Friday -- TONIGHT! Sorting these by rank, for the final day of voting. Again, same top 3,but LM03 overtook LM06 for the second spot. Also, the Anti-Dallas/Tino Palace scarf (hey that rhymes) got a big bump today; presumably from the article - it's in 4th place by a hair. The leaders are starting to pull away from the pack. Top 3 in BOLD. TU09 :: 13% LM03 :: 12% LM06 :: 12% LM08 :: 12% TU08 :: 09% TU01 :: 07% TU12 :: 07% LM01 :: 06% LM05 :: 04% TU10 :: 04% TU06 :: 02% LM10 :: 02% TU03 :: 01% TU04 :: 01% TU07 :: 01% TU11 :: 01% LM02 :: 01% LM04 :: 01% LM09 :: 01% LM11 :: 01% AA02 :: 01% AA04 :: 01% AA07 :: 01% AA03 :: 00% LM07 :: 00% AA05 :: 00% AA06 :: 00% Top 3 so far - 1. TU09 2. LM03 3. LM06
That is the lamest name in MLS. The only comfort I can find is that it is not the real name of your "team". Your team's name is FC Dallas. Only the gay little fan boys in your back water "city" are stupid enough to call it FC Dallas 96. That is not your team's name moron! Can one day go by without a Dallas fan flaunting their idiocy?
