Some LAFC fans are acting like toddlers. I’m reading crap about disbanding cold-weather teams. Investing hundreds of millions for domed stadiums. Your team saw snow and quit. What are you, 3? The world does not revolve around you. Sometimes life sucks. Just take the L.

Dear @LAGalaxy , The team lacks a plan. The franchise is full of pointless, childish drama. On top of that, they’re boring. And now they’re coming home to a half-empty stadium. Please end the drama. Fire Chris Klein. Thank you.

I must say, even if you hate #LAGalaxy , you have to admit their fans aren’t stupid. That Klein email? The reactions are the same: - what is “advancing”? - the playoff standard has lowered - you admit not building infrastructure - where’s Jovan’s email? The fans are on their game.

A message to the #LAGalaxy SGs, with no anger: The #KleinOut boycott is the first I’ve ever joined. People want me to boycott many things, like Bud Light, which is pointless. I don’t drink Bud Light, eat Chik-fil-A, shop at Hobby Lobby... You asked me to join. So hold the line.

Thoughts on Chicharito: 1) recovery time for ACL (non athlete) is 6-9 months. Barring a miracle, his #LAGalaxy career has ended. 2) Respect him for taking the heat nobody else would during the #KleinOut protest. 3) Of course he wasn’t as overwhelming as Zlatan. (1/2)

I see some #LAGalaxy fans are upset about the #KleinOut boycott, but I believe the SG are justified. Here’s why: I can’t support cheating. We can’t just clown the Astros for cheating and be OK with our teams doing it. Houston cleaned house. So should we. Good night.

But that was because Zlatan could create his own shot, where Chicharito needed service. Having said that, Chicharito cared more about the Galaxy than Zlatan ever did. 4) The man went out like a warrior, on his sword. He may never have his number retired. Respect him, anyway.

There is a belief among some that AEG will sell/move the LA Galaxy. It won’t happen. Every sports franchise in Los Angeles gains value. It’s why LA, without even asking, got the Clippers and Chargers. The Galaxy leaving loses value. It’s also cheaper to buy an expansion MLS team.
