Agreed. The "puto" chants need to stop although I did hear some people shout "you suck!" instead. Let's keep it classy NY.
yet we seem to continue the "fuck you (enter team name here)" chant alive every single game...
and the "asshole" chant
You have a point however nothing compares to a "puto" chant after every single goal kick taken by the opposing team's goalie. Also, just to be clear I just finished watching the re-run of Sunday's game and the chants reminded me of how ridiculous it sounds during every MEX vs USA games. Absurd and most of all annoying.

Yeah, the atmosphere was quiet in the second half, but with good reason - we were getting it handed to us.
I don't remember where I saw it mentioned, but what about cheering on Saunders when he kicks it, instead of the opposing keeper? Start with the crescendo-ing "hhheeeeEEEYYYY", and then just chose a different word. Can even be Spanish.
Hasn't this been going on at every game? From my seats, I have heard it consistently throughout the season so far. I personally don't care what people say, humans are pretty stupid in general, but I'm surprised this is now a thing?
I noticed several other countries picking it up at the WC. It's not beyond the realm of possibility that some folks grew up saying it.i sort of heard it during the portland game but i didnt think it was that many people ( i was standing in one of the supporters section) however i sat in another section for this game and man i really heard it clearly especially in the second half coming across the field from other goal where Frei was in second half. so it was more like general fans not SG.
in terms of it being a thing, i guess people hear it on TV so they say it in games?

I mean, we could say it is a positive sign that our club is leading the way for MLS finally penetrating the Hispanic market.
It doesn't bother me too much either way. I don't even know what it means, so that may be why.
this is new york, we have spanish/latino people, mexican or not thats the only thing i can think of lol
The "puto" chant originally comes from Mexico. I know this beause I also follow international CONMEBOL/CONCACAF matches and I only hear this ridiculous chant when a Mexican team (and NT) is playing at a home venue. The small number of Mexicans that come to the home games HAD to be the ones that started it. Nothing against them don't get me wrong, I have a latino side myself, I just really wouldn't like my local NYC supporters shouting that. It isn't funny at all to call the opposing GK a "fag" everytime he takes a goal kick. One thing is to tease the whole club/visiting supporters but to get personal with the GK by calling him that throughout the game is just plain stupid.
