i haven't been posting in this thread much because my Man City fandom has wavered over the past year, so i stopped following as much. i guess that happens when you just pick a team you like kinda randomly without any real connection to them or knowing their history.

i love their roster and i love pep but i don't feel the 'pull' of the team like i used to

haha no it's purely about the organization itself. i still love the roster and i hope they keep winning, but next year i might start looking for a team with more working class roots rather than qatar roots

FYI, I changed my name.  Sounds like this will be a MLS team name so I got the dibs.  Cheer for Liverpool, United, Arsenal or Spurs.  Chelsea and Qatar are oil money and blood money.

Liverpool been up and down team for many years.  It’s amazing how good they got without sugar daddy owner.  Just smart business all around... selling average guys for crazy money and buying above average guys for little money.

My favorite PL team has been relegated twice in the last 6 years, so now I just watch the matches with no real rooting interest. Which is fine. I'm the same way with the Bundesliga.

Let's face it, any attachments one forms with a European club are tenuous, at best. Personally speaking, I'll have much more of a connection with the new MLS team. Because they're here.

My son started liking Liverpool back in the mid-2000’s when he was in middle-school. I couldn’t have cared less at that time.

After he graduated from college, he moved back home for a while so I figured I would watch the matches with him since it would give us something to do together, I started liking it more and more and now, personally, I have more fun watching Liverpool than watching any other sport.

And since we live in the Atlanta area, he and I have been huge Atlanta United fans as well.

Oh, and Charlotte/Tepper? Don’t pretend we’re rivals, because we’re not. Y’all have to earn that poo first. ;)

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Seltzer · Posted

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
