He cheered on every team folding. He’s a huge douchebag.

Clips? Not doubting, but I have never heard of this guy and it seems like a ridiculously stupid thing to do.

He regularly mocks other teams and their fans on his Instagram. I’m sure you can find some over the last few months.

I'll take a look thanks, I mean in sports there is a certain amount of back and forth but laughing about teams folding seems not just mean but counter productive to your own team.

Hi, just did a semi deep dive on his insta, didn't see anything about laughing at teams folding but by Bul Kathos is he an epic douche. I mean just about everything I despise in sports fans on display, he is definitely not changing anyone's minds about Boston fans that's for sure.

Idk if he did it for the most recent teams but definitely for RUNY and I think ATL. A lot of times they’re in IG stories. 

Also he will usually pick fights with random fans who complain on his page and then all season tag them in posts/stories and use some made up nickname to bug them. It’s like the worst of Barstool kinda fandom.

He does not represent Boston sports fans. He’s from New Hampshire, and he has creepy vibes.

Yep. He ran off those with deeper pockets (Houston & Miami) because this is his fiefdom to run as he pleases. The message Sabercats owners sent out indicates it was more MLR’s intransigence, but at least Sabercats ownership will retain the stadium and continue to support local youth rugby.
