Why are their sports teams so...sovlless?

Yankees were formed in 1903 they are probably older than most of the soccer teams you watch

>>151790248
We have a league system, the entirety of the world does bar muttistan. You see the same shitty teams over and over since forever.
Many of our late 1800's teams have stopped existing due to relegations and bankruptcy or due to teritorial and social changes.
We don't have *random Hungarian gibberish* team because it went bankrupt and from its roots we made CFR cluj for example

>>151790234 (OP)
They weren’t always that way. New York teams used to have plenty of “SOVL” almost comparable to Boston and Chicago teams. But like the city itself, that died out maybe 15-25 years ago. It was a slow process and the tldr on the root causes are:

The knicks and the shitty football teams are very soulful

>>151790382
Sounds like povertycope

Did you watch 50 ads before you posted this bud?

>>151790248
Even the village club I play for is from 1895.

>>151790234 (OP)
the only sovlless teams here are the nets and the soccer teams

>>151790548
Yeah, 50 ads of your gypsy whore mother’s webcam show

>>151790382

>Supporting a team formed after the 19th century

MLB had the most soulful format in sports until 1968

I don't like NYC teams but the giants, jets, yanks, mest, knicks, rags, and islanders all have sovl. They are mostly down now but they are still relevant to make fun of when they are down compared to other down teams that no one cares about.

>Knickers and Nest
Too shit
>Red Bull
Entire identity is Austrian energy drink brand
>New York City FC
Also sovless branding and Man City affiliate team
>Others
I don't know

Euros wish they had the sovl of the Bronx Zoo days

>>151790234 (OP)
Yankees only lose soul because Jay Z is so much more famous than them that he made the Yankee hat more famous than the Yankees are
Only Man err New York City FC and the Nets are truly soulless.

>>151790234 (OP)
Not really, most of them do have soul, if you want soulless teams you go to LA

>>151790621
retard they have bars older than our country being discovered

That's not even close to true you scamming retard. Why do Yuropoors think they're the only ones who have sports? Are they stupid?

>>151790234 (OP)
Some of the sports teams are soulful. However, I do think the Giants are very soulless. Im not sure why though.

>Mexico

>>151790234 (OP)

They've all either been unwatchably bad or boring when good. Most sovlful team in recent history was the '07 Giants, 18 years ago.

I think they NY market just does not allow individuality to thrive so everyone who plays in the area becomes pretty sterile and inoffensive versions of themselves.

The Mets logo is the face of gentrification. Probably finna get worse now that they're electing a commie

Having no idea about american sports, the Mets don't feel like a soulless franchise that could move to Albuquerque at any point. When I see your typical new yorker, I see the Mets

>>151792789
Jets/Giants have kind of a unique relationship for city rivals, at least with a certain generation, because really I'm a Jets fan and my only frame of reference for the Giants is beating T*m Br*dy in the super bowl twice as huge underdogs. So I always hope they're doing ok even if they're not my team

>this is soulless

>>151794842
i wouldn't even consider jets-giants a rivalry desu, it's not like yankees-mets, there may be some banter but i've never met a fan of either team who actively dislikes the other team

>>151790234 (OP)
Because they are an Indian caste nation state now. They are no longer the cool New York of the 80s where anything cojld happen. Anything can still happen but now its much gayer and brown.

Me too

Such a seething faggot I can’t believe people still give a fuck what this retard says about anything.

>>151795760
New York and LA are known for their attitudes but overall neither is much a hatred attitude.
New Yorkers hate Boston and Philly, not the Bronx hating Queens. Angelinos hate San Francisco and Sacramento more than they hate Orange County

>>151795864
Can we get a MAGA Down to the Countryside program so these people can an hero

>>151795955
Holy shit there's a 90 year old left wing Jew on the Upper West Side!!!!

Huh. Curious that

>>151795864
What's the official /sp/orts team of neoliberal technocratic jihadism? Probably just like real madrid i guess

>>151796125
mets fans definitely hate the yankees
yankees fans usually don't feel as strongly about the mets but they still don't like em and wouldn't root for em

>>151796790
>state elected representative of new york
retard

>>151790234 (OP)
Players today are way too soft to play in New York. They can't deal with the fact that the fanbase demands greatness and that the NY media is up their asses constantly.

>>151790248
Our public education system is abysmal

>>151797243
Oh dont act like he isnt going to win and that Native New Yorkers dont look like this nowadays due to mass immigration. Half of your buruoughs are New Dehli tier now, otherwise he wouldnt even be considered.

Your being disengenous as fuck

I saw Zohran in Fort Greene before any of this. He had some followers then too and he had a different form of security then too.
There were 3 guys who went after him mid-speech with the same bullshit that he's been getting attacked for and some Bushwick White looking guys protecting him from them.
He addressed them by name and said they followed him around. Frankly that's why I'm voting for him, because beyond all the words is a series of relatively solid policy proposals from someone with good connections in Entertainment who will make sure Atlanta dies. I mean it. Fuck Atlanta. It's LA and New York. I spent most of my life on MPI and the Strike kind of slowed me down. But Fuck Atlanta. A Zohran Mayoral Term will mean 4 years of growth for Film and TV and 4 years of safety for Broadway. 4 years where my ideas are more possible. And the threat of rich people leaving, well that just makes me even more excited. My rent has grown too much over the last decade.

>>151798114
the state doesn't vote for the mayor you retard the city does

>Zohran Mayoral Term will mean 4 years of growth for Film and TV and 4 years of safety for Broadway
oh so your a theatre fag
yeah Jew York is souless and anyone who says otherwise is a shill who is stuck in the past
