quote:And this is the crux, really: it is the terrace culture of English football that MLS fans are most clearly aping, and yet there are things about English football that you just can't ape. For example, you could argue that at the height of its infamy, English hooliganism was fuelled by a poisonous cocktail of dying industry, regional resentment, mass unemployment, racial tension, a war on class loyalty, cruel government, corrupt policing and fading empire. And you could argue that American hooliganism is fuelled by the mostly fictional account of a hobbit getting beaten up at a West Ham match. The two phenomena aren't really comparable, though that didn't stop these NYCFC fans – supporters of a club, remember, who were formed last year, bankrolled by Abu Dhabi oil money – throwing their weight behind the anti-corporate, anti-petrodollar "Against Modern Football" movement: lol

At least that's DC, any major city in the NE or SW, Florida, basically everyone but the lily white Cascadians Ciprian Maricon posted:i'm pretty sure id still rather risk being stabbed by an Eagle's fan than having to deal with some dumb loving cappo melting down on me because i yelled puto True story, I got into it with a young guy who's more goon than goon who decided to give me a full ten minutes argument about how awful it was that we called a player puto (It was against Fort Lauderdale, the guy's name was PC, so PC PUTO became a thing), and I couldn't figure out a way to tell him I understood what he was trying to say while wishing he would gently caress off in a fashion that would resonate for him. North American fans can be really really awful. So I make friends instead.
