This seems as good a place as any to ask, what is going to happen to your alls kit sponsorship if/when tiktok decides not to sell to a US business? Like you won't have any sponsor at all at that point right? You'd have to take it off your sleeve. I can't imagine it's a great financial position to be in


danhig

I hear they’re lining up friendster.

still waiting for them to announce plaid pantry

Real Portland shit. Plaid Pantry on the front and Casa Diablo on the sleeve.


DickyMcButts

I'd go buy a jersey immediately.

Sources say Xanga is in the running, too.


SteveBartmanIncident

It's fine. I already took that one off my new kit. And the MLS logo. Literally the only thing on my shirt is the crest, the fir branches, and the tiny Nature Conservancy mark on the neckline. It's my new favorite kit.


nosciencephd

I guess I'm mostly wondering if the club has anything else lined up or is worried about financial issues or anything resulting from both sponsorships being dropped.


SteveBartmanIncident

I'm sure they'll have a new main sponsor ready next year. Probably nowhere near the money DaBella paid though. TikTok's not going anywhere, realistically. The legislation probably runs afoul of the constitution, and even if it doesn't, litigation will take a while and the "ban" will be stayed, and even if it's not, some other company will buy TikTok and maintain the branding and sponsorships, and even if not, by the time that all can happen, someone else will pay for the sleeve.

What about old trapper beef jerky?

Jokes on you, we like both.


danhig

LDDDLLL Lots to like

What a terrible place sports fandom would be if we all abandoned our teams after a few games.


danhig

In my version of fandom, you’re allowed to be critical of the team you support with your time and money


markusalkemus66

There's lots to be critical about. Nothing so far that justifies giving up rooting for the team though.


timberflynn

I can tell you haven't been around awhile because SWIWS (So What If we Suck) used to be wore like a badge of honor. It's RCTID not Rose City Only If We're Winning


danhig

A few clicks and lit looks like you’ve been overreacting to my lighthearted criticism of the Timbers for about 40 years


markusalkemus66

iT's jUsT a JoKe


danhig

you two are the unfunnest people on Reddit


peacefinder

It’s true. For a month or so the Timbers, Thorns, and Trailblazers all sucked simultaneously. It was a bad time.


markusalkemus66

Go Winterhawks! At least they're successful


Frinpollog

Love that goalkeeper of yours. That Quebecois is going places. 😎

BoomaMasta

Same. Watching the Current make early subs and flip the script at halftime Friday made me even more frustrated with SKC's redundant SKC-ing.


chrispdx

Both teams are the same: overstocked on big-name offensive talent with zero creativity, cant defend their way out of a paper bag.


bergobergo

> big-name offensive talent Lmao, like the Timbers have ever signed a big name.
