MLS Soccer Thread -

[Frank Rizzo]

MLS was brought up in the chat earlier today, so I thought perhaps we can put up a thread to talk MLS stuff, separate from the world futbol thread.

So, does anyone here have any favorite MLS teams?

I like Philly. They won at Red Bull Arena for the first time on Sunday.

I've been rooting for NYC FC.

they're.....not exactly setting the league on fire, but i admire their determination, even when they're down late in a game.

Like many a Red Bulls fan I jumped ship to NYCFC, but their supporters groups aren't exactly making me want to stay a fan.

I tend to try and ignore the crazy NYC FC supporters and just support the team by rooting for them no matter what.

Insanely talented defense, and a really rabid fan base, I love em.

I'd love em a tad bit more if they could seal a western conference.

Edit: changed from email to em, autocorrect fail.

Orlando City. Though I grew up near Sacramento so will probably change colors if Republic FC gets in.

I've heard from more then one soccer fan that when Orlando City was in the USL Pro, their fans were usually the most obnoxious supporters. Can you confirm this?

 

[Doctor Druid]

I actually don't know. I live kinda far from the Citrus Bowl, so haven't been able to catch a game yet.

 

[Frank Rizzo]

This is often the video I'm directed too when people tell me how obnoxious some OC SC fans are.

 

[Doctor Druid]

Ah, yeah. It's quite unfortunate that even a newer club has shithead "fans" like that. A fair few of the people I've met on the street though seem quite pleasant, if not as much as say the Seattle supporters.

 

[Frank Rizzo]

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to single out OC SC fans, I've seen fans of other MLS teams that are obnoxious.

Case in point: I went to the NYC FC/NY Red Bulls game in NJ recently, and, at half time, as I was walking towards the rest room, this drunken dude in head to toe Redbulls gear came up to me, and the following convo ensued:

Redbulls Fan: (Slurred) Yo bro, your team's losing! My team's winning!

Me: Yes, I know, it's a good game though...

Redbulls Fan: Yep, good game for the mother fucking Redbulls, bitch!

Me: Yep, well, nice meeting you bro....

Redbulls Fan: (As I was walking away, screeching at the top of his lungs) NYC FC FUCKING SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKS!

Meanwhile, the Official NYC FC fans are chanting racial slurs.

Mmmhmmm, it's one of the reasons I've not wanted to sit in the "Supporters Section" at NYC FC games.

I tried to find a screengrab my friend had of some guy on their page ending his post with "14/88" but he posts so much shit to Facebook I got tired of scrolling.

@Rat Speaker, Your fellow Sounders fans were in the camp of being very classy.

After NYC FC lost to them at home, most Sounders fans I passed were all "Hey, good game everyone!" and just very respectful and nice.

 

[Doctor Druid]

Timbers fans, from what I have seen, are the same way. They are pretty chill and see the match as what it is, a game.

Timbers fans *are* chill as shit.

From what I saw of a few youtube videos, they're all super into charity and give a lot of their money and time to said charities.
