Post by: LatterDayCelticsfan on December 03, 2014, 01:32:09 PM
Any actual fans here. They have a big final coming up and its all very quiet about them.

  Big fan. Season ticket holder, looking forward to the final with about as much anticipation as someone who's seen them lose all 4 times they've gotten that far can muster. In other words, excited but fairly nervous.

I'm a Revs fan who attended Saturday's Red Bull match.  Great game, great crowd.  The Revs are slowly taking hold.  Helps that some of the media who for years dumped on them and the sport are starting to age out of their jobs and the team is beginning to get a bit more respect from the younger media guys who actually understand the sport a little bit.

The Celtics players could take a lesson in grit from Jermaine Jones.  The guy is tough as nails.

They're a great story in that that they have some local guys on the team who are major contributors.  Jay Heaps played basketball at Duke for Coach K many moons ago.

Great to hear. High time they got in on the Boston tradition of winning.

I don't know much about MLS. Would a bad MLS team beat a really good college team?

Apparently the L.A Galaxy as doing to the New England revolution now, what the Celtics did to the Lakers back in the 60. 5 meetings in the MLS Cup final have all gone one way.

I don't even know what sport this is, but it's unclear why it would be on Celtics blog.

  The problem is they're very streaky and seem to be trending downward.

  They're mainly a bunch of (mainly young) role players and a few stars. There's not much to blow up beyond letting Jones leave. They just need to add a few strong players and they'll be fine.

Something like the current Celtics then?

I will say this: DeadMik (the car salesman) is a huge Revs fan.

Revs out of the playoffs it seems, no particularly big names to draw fans. What's the plan? Is there a way forward? Should we let them hire Danny Ainge as a consultant GM? See if can't build a contender

There is really nothing to be excited about with this team right now.

They have enough talent that they are a few good additions from making a little run, but until they get that SSS this franchise is just treading water.

Teams like Atlanta are leaving them in the dust.

Interesting. I've never watched a game. Played soccer all throughout my school years and have thought of watching a game maybe this will give me the push I need hahaha.

How's about Wayne Rooney making DC United relevant again? Is it the biggest turnaround a single European import has had on a MLS team or is it marketing

Post by: LatterDayCelticsfan on November 09, 2020, 05:08:23 AM
Just a random thought experiment. What if the MLS decided to have a more working class outlook to new franchises.


Imagine a Spartak Philadelphia, or a Lokomotiv Pittsburgh or a Dynamo Detroit.

Very much tongue in cheek.
