laughing my ass off at the irony of a baseball fan calling soccer boring. bet he's also a fan of watching paint dry.
Just once, I wish the Chicago fire can have an atmosphere like this. Seattle, Kc, Portland and LA Galaxy got this thing done right.
I've never had fun watching baseball in the USA. American fans are soooooo boring to be around. I did have fun in the Dominican Republic and Japan though. But, at the end of the day soccer is a beautiful sport and baseball is for fat people.
baseball sucks and the mlb will never expand again.
it means soccers right name is football. also, portland had a minor league baseball team when the timbers were also minor league. the timbers sold out most of there games. the beavers had about 1000 of the 20000 seats sold out on a really good. day. i went to a game. it was boring. left half way through it. portland didnt give a rats ass about the beavers. thats why we got rid of them to make room for the mls timbers. which have sold out every home game so far and have the best fans in the mls.
Then stop posting on how much you hate the beautiful game and go watch your stupid baseball.
Ok, I have to admit, That was hilarious. But seriously, If you hate Soccer so much, Why do you keep coming on these videos?
And yet, You looked it up on YouTube.
No one cares about baseball. Soccer is the greatest sport in the world while baseball is so boring that their fans feel the need to troll Soccer videos to feel good about themselves.
John honestly piss off
Vaughn Street Park was Portland's baseball stadium until it was condemned in the 1950s and the Beavers moved to Multnomah Stadium. Before then Multnomah Stadium was used for American football, cricket, and dog racing.
ah, I don't know why they do that, maybe it's because they use the term football, meaning the people that create the team, or maybe to appease Europeans, I really don't know
i ment american touch in the atmosphere. you guys call the sport soccer and yet some teams have the FC at the end or front, WHAT THE HELL!
We say Soccer for the same reason South Africa and most of East Asia say Soccer. Another Football code is more popular in the region. Even with that being said, there are still millions of people here that love the beautiful game!
Why are we fighting over the name of a sport? Why are fighting if it's less passionate? No matter where or when, it is still the same sport. If you love it was much as me you'll understand it doesn't matter who plays it or where all it that it matters is the fire they have for the sport.
So you ask why don't we have more of an American touch to the atmosphere, yet at the same time you wonder why we don't call it football? What the hell?
Who gives a damn what we call the sport and who gives a damn to what political party you're aligned to, especially if it's in a different country?!
i am german and i think that in the mls you guys from montreal have the best support more or less. why do you say that a stupid american team has has fantastic support. i don't know how you guys call the sport in canada but in the usa they all say soccer for some reason. you guys are a bit better than these americans. what political point of view do montreal fans have? because i saw a star in one video, in germany this means that you are left!
where is the american touch? way to europen and south american but only not as loud and not as passionate. if anybody thinks that this is good atmosphere then it is true when people say that the usa is so far behind the rest of the world when it comes to FOOTBALL! why do americans say soccer?
You Timbers fans are fantastic…respect from montréal!
that day was great good memories 🙂
@MrKaicyr What about DC United?
man this is were the usmnt shud play mexico like if u think this is rite
Impressed from England.
@johnycena000 marketing. good marketing equals lots of new customers. the people of portland were sold a product, and they bought it. at least until it's not seen as "hip" to attend matches.
plastic fans. tsk tsk.
@adfoster916 no he's an idiot. i responded with called sarcasm. the truly sad thing was he replied "oh, well that makes sense"
@RollOnToVictory You're a dumbass…why would we chant UCLA at a Portland-Chicago soccer game??
how do a new team get so many fans?
Don't be an idiot. They weren't chanting UCLA they were chanting P T … F C! No proud pacific northwesterner would chant for ANYTHING related to LA – please. Come on you Timbers! As our adopted team you must know, Alaska loves you.
I had some friends who were confused for a bit wondering why the fans seemed to be chanting "UC…..LA" I told her Portland just has a huge number of Bruins fans
Hard to burn a wet, well rooted tree!!!
@grenouilledc First, let me say I'm happy for the excitement in Portland around their team. It's good for the league, and great for the derby between our teams. That said, you must be new to the scene if you think they outdrew MLS teams. The last 2 years, yes. Before that, no. They averaged just over 4k until about 2007. Then about 8-9k until 2009. Learn your histroy.
who the fuck you calling hipsters!
THUMPS UP IF U WANT TO BE IN THE THAT STADIUM WHEN TIMBERS AND SOUNDERS FACE OFF LETS GO TIMBERS!!!!
lol ate os times dos USA tem mais torcedores do que o Fluminense
This game was awesome
hipsters. just there to seem fashionable. they weren't there a couple years ago, and they won't be there a couple years from now. plastic fans.
Galaxy fan here but I have to say what a fantastic home opener. Timbers fans should be proud, as should the entire Rose City.
Timbers Army were loud, raucous and fun to watch. The singing of the National Anthem was not only an honor but a super awesome spectacle. Also, absolutely love the Tetris song (sadly not on this video.)
I'll definitely be rooting for them (except when they're playing the Blue, White and Gold of course!)
RCTID
@xshawnyxboyx hell yeah 🙂
this is great for american soccer!
Yes, that's impressive!
@rockslideproductions seattle?

Im very happy to see that American soccer is growiing. After what we did at the world cup the world is expecting and we are delivering.
Merritt needs a green overcoat… gotta keep that suit lookin good.
