The Fire suuuuuck, so what other Soccer, Football, Fútbol are you watching?

Huge promotion battle for Palermo in Monza today. Good guys down a goal that came against the run of play at the half.

 

Just finished Stoke City vs Watford. 3-1 with 4 really nice goals.

 

Makes me wish we had competent ownership that didn’t ruin our brand here in Chicago and turn it from one of the coolest names we have locally to the most genericass sounding name in all of sports.

 

The fetish of English soccer is so mind numbingly stupid.

 

Me thinks it's a statement of support. Was a time when "Up the 'RA" was a common chant, and piece of Mens room graffiti, among supporters of an organization that was based in the north of Ireland.

Allegedly.

 

I think it's intended to work like "Vamos Fire"

 

I actually love the city itself, have some very close friends there and a lot of great memories. Friends are so great that despite visiting there regularly for the past 18 years I have never tried provel, or Imo’s, not even once (and I’ve tried- just to experience how bad both are). But yeah, no hatred for their little soccer club, maybe once we realign and start playing them more something organic will pop up but for now, with how infrequently we play them (thanks for nothing Garber!) they don’t rate anything more than indifference from me. Same with the Loons, tbh.

 

What about Up The Arse?

 

It's STILL the Sears Tower!
It's STILL Comisky Park!
it's STILL the Gulf of Mexico!
and...It's STILL the RED Stars. I won't drop it and if we all don't drop it they will eventually have to flip flop.

I think the St. Louisians could have an excellent rivalry against the Cahokia Mississippians.

 

I agree with this message, except about Sox Park. Comisky Park was iconic, and they tore it down. I was, and am still, pissed the louse of an owner tore it down (with us paying for its replacement). I just can't bring myself to call the perfectly serviceable park across the street anything but Sox Park.


Oh, and get off my yard!
