Seriously Stopped Supporting?
- Thread starter NYCFC_Dan
- Start date
The way I've seen it described: Pacquiao won the fight, Mayweather won the boxing match.
pacquaio couldnt fight. everytime he tried., mayweather caught him with a jab and dodged his way out of a corner completely disrupting any rhythm he could start.
i mean if the fight was 1 round, that being the 4th, then pacquaio wins... but of 12, not even close
What I haven't seen yet is the chanting more while our team is losing... It's when they need encouragement most.
I've been to most home matches and have had a great time despite losses - I'll be around on the 15th as well.

I took a break from here and the fb group for a couple weeks cuz ppl were just trippin. I popped in here for the shoutbox during the game last night since I was unable to attend/watch/figure out how to look at the score in that stupid MLS app .
Not knowing much about football other than how to watch it and have a good time generally prevents me from getting caught up in a lot of the arguments that have been taking over social media.
I bought my Mix shirt (Cuz stupid modells didn't have jerseys) three days after we got whooped by Chicago, less than a week after losing to Portland. I don't even think I'll be able to attend a game until the mid June one against Montreal. But I wanted to get my gear ready just in case my circumstances change.
Point is I don't think fans are disappearing or pulling their support for the team. I think many have decided to just pull back from the forums/social media until you no longer need to be wearing turnouts to participate in a discussion.

There a few people going a bit over board but most just agree that we are bad. We shouldn't lie to ourselves as supporters. Being loyal and sticking by your team is one thing. Lying to yourself is another story. Anyone calling for Kreis' head doesn't understand the game. But also anyone that can't admit we are downright awful and hard to watch also needs a reality check. As supporters we should be able to discuss that and not hide from it.
The entire NYCFC fandom experience is now like a drug. I can't cut it off.
I usually text with a friend during the games we're watching on tv and that's exactly how we feel about it. I am proud to be a "founding member" fan from the start, and I celebrated with everyone else at that first match when we scored those goals and ultimately won, and I'll always have that. But it's impossible to to sit through the game and not be frustrated with some of the stuff that is happening on the field. It's worse when you're in the stadium and your entire section is yelling at them to take a freakin' shot and they won't. But a lot of the verbal abuse directed at the team, and at Kries in particular is just exhausting to read/listen to.
Though frankly I wish he wouldn't have gotten himself quoted saying that "it's harder than I expected" or whatever it was. He really shouldn't be making that kind of statement publicly.
Didn't stop supporting. Just got to busy to spend a lot of time on the Forum. City Till I Die.
