RBNY Postgame

[Seth]

If we go on to win our next two games, I will completely forget about this one.

Yup. This. Thank you.

I know I'm dwelling on this now, but do you think the delayed start messed up our mental prep? Being completely fired up for the scheduled start but not being able to re-start the engine for actual kick-off...adrenaline depletion etc? Whilst those fckers used their free sugar/caffeine drink.......

Same. Went food shopping, wore my hat and coaches jacket. I always wear the hat though, so not wearing it would be weird for me. So I wore it. And I needed a light jacket, so I wore that too.

You double-logo-ed on a non-gameday? Hmm. We may need to have a remedial course about responsible swag use.

I once tripled by adding in a t-shirt but I swear it was an accident and totally unintended.

Just remember gentlemen, there is a thin line between proper accessorizing and

Be safe out there!

Going on a small rant here..

I think the underlying problem is far greater than we think. We keep talking about coaching, DPs, tactics, players in general, etc. I think the problem is our organization and CFG thinking they got the biggest ____ in the room. That they can waltz right into this league and dominate. I truly think they think they are smarter than everyone else in the league. Confidence is good, but ignorance and arrogance will keep us from growing. They will see their mistakes through to the end if they have no one else to blame, just to try and prove they didn't make a bad a mistake.

I truly hope this game humbled them and they seriously look at this club as a whole...not just as a pet project with a revenue stream. They are taking us for suckers. Gimmicks and marketing will keep the dopes coming they think. This game needs to be a defining moment in our club's young existence and mark the beginning of great things to come. Otherwise, we are being sold snake oil. I'm not feeling overly optimistic right now.

Hey, I liked the way I said it.

I had a big fear we would drop this 2 or 3 to 0 when I heard all of our pussy footing media. But 7-0 wasn't in my wildest dreams. CFG as an organization lack heart, and it shows in our squad and in others. Since Hughes was fired, they haven't won shit as an organization when they weren't head and shoulders more talented.

This loss is one that stamps our club with a scarlet letter. I won't be disappointed or surprised if attendance drops markedly. It should. This is an unmitigated travesty.

It will forever be known as "The Red Bull Wedding" to me now.

The Se7en bit is kind of a stretch to get to a joke that no one will get without an explanation. What's in the box? The NFL football is more clever.

At the risk of sounding like an idiot, can someone explain the "red bull wedding" analogy?

The Red Wedding is an event in the Game of Thrones TV series and books. Shouldn't get too detailed for spoiler reasons but safe to say it was an unexpected and merciless massacre.

The Red Wedding was a surprise slaughter in Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire. A bunch of main characters died and was shocking and traumatic.

Add a spoiler tag for anybody that hasn't read/watched it. That's too big of a scene to put out there.

 

[Albany_NYCFC]

Thanks mgarbowski and T Tom in Fairfield CT !!!!

I would totally be in for one of those t shirts. Best way to get over on RB fans is to show that we are over it, that we don't take it seriously. That would piss them off even more!!!

It's a 3 year old episode of a TV show based on a book that came out 15 years ago.

And somebody still didn't know what the connotation was which is why the question was asked in the first place there are people out there less tuned-in to fine programming and stories than we are..... not many, but a few....

Yeah but how likely is that person to pick up the book/show and care that they were spoiled at this point?
