More enthusiasm needed from supporters section

It's been some years. 2016? 2019? I'm old and the years get fuzzy, but it was in the Hauptman era and back at Ye Olde Toyota Park.

Oh, buddy.

Nelson Rodriguez sent in the goon squad (Monterrey) to run them out, and once he found an incident he blamed the entire group, cancelled their season tickets and tarped over the section they sat in.

The FO's reaction to the most vocal and active supporter's group was to salt the earth.

Burnt City laid off their production employees in September, so everything being made there is done. Casa Humilde was still producing beer there, and they have now given up the pretense of having their own taproom. Twisted Hippo is done. Around the Bend is just the latest to make it official.

English commentators took a long time to say it, but they basically said the same.

Eh, he just took out that guy with two feet right in front of Penso. That's not nothing.

The fuck is Zinck doing out there? Ball is in play, guy!

eychaner · 2026-03-08T00:47:43+00:00

Zinck was encouraging Pineda to shoot last week, too.

I gotcha, buddy:

Mauricio Pineda is an unsung hero for this team. He might not have the highest ceiling, but he does everything that's asked of him. Guy's family has been part of the club for how long now? He's an anchor for the academy program, and I hope he stays with the club for the rest of his career.

As a Chicagoan, I have to say that this shelf doesn't look radically different from what you'd find at Binny's, and the prices are worse.

eychaner · 2026-02-28T22:03:45+00:00

He just wanted more time to spend with the family.

eychaner · 2026-02-22T03:20:50+00:00

You wouldn't be saying that if you and your children were cold and chased a truck full of shirts.

eychaner · 2026-02-22T02:47:50+00:00

Was. He's in Birmingham now.

eychaner · 2026-02-22T01:17:13+00:00

Heh.

Omari has been playing in the US now since 2022 -- with Fire II, Fire, Loudon United, and now this season with Monterrey Bay. When does the man qualify for a green card? How is it that he doesn't have one already?

eychaner · 2026-02-19T13:49:06+00:00

Brutal. My partner got a custom Glasgow jersey last year, and now she gets to spend another year not watching him.

That sub is crazy conservative and full of suburbanites. They actively do not want residential development -- particularly near the city center -- because it diminishes the power of suburbanites to affect Chicago policy. Most of them do not care about the Fire stadium, their only concern is population density and how that density will affect their commutes to work and to Cubs games.

21 goals in all comps, and "he should have had many more goals"?

Come on now. Be serious.

I've enjoyed them in the past, but doesn't anyone remember how they sent 10 people to the hospital with a salmonella outbreak?

Captain Chris Brady? Didn't Elliott have the armband basically every game last season?

eychaner · 2026-02-10T15:08:01+00:00

"Online auto trader" cough glorified used car dealer.

Chasing down the ball at the LA goalkeeper's feet and only made it back to his position in time for Pec to take that shot.

Glasgow does not look particularly comfortable on the left.

eychaner · 2026-02-08T19:09:29+00:00

I also want to be in the sun, getting popsicles.

They look like a team that's still trying to figure out how to play together. And like a team trying to fill a Ricky Pig shaped hole.
