Dortmund had 6 titles up until two years ago.
Yeah, okay. So? That term was introduced for marketing reasons. Also I highly doubt that you didn't know that term beforehand. You only wanted to ridicule it (like you ofc did) right after someone stated the obvious answer. Classy.
In Germany, the regional derbys have always had a much higher importance than in other leagues or the meeting of the historically two best teams.

No, he is not missing the point. You just like talking to straw men and repeating the few points you have over an over again in a debate.

Well, I'm sorry our cultural and technological enrichment of the rest of the globe in form of 16 to 19th century imperialism wasn't as fruitful as that of the British, Spanish and French. We were busy trying to become a nation and deciding the fate of the various forms of Christianity.
What, Ryu? You struck me as a bit of... you know...
Next thing you know is us all singing to the tunes of Deutschland über alles... By the way, I almost bought the book "The German Genius" at the bookstore inside Hauptbahnhof in Munich but I thought it was a bit too much, you know.

Very insightful as usual.
I may not be classy in this matter, but I am sure right.

okay and your point was what then?
You're not exactly telling anyone new things if you say that there isnt a 2nd giant in germany.

Every team will do what it can to make itself better. It's not any fault of Bayern's that their domestic rivals aren't up to scratch.
It's not like we haven't bought star players from La Liga's best teams (excluding Real Madrid). Villa/Alba/Mathieu from Valencia, Alves/Adriano/Rakitic/Vidal from Sevilla, Turan from Atletico, Bravo from Sociedad, etc.

To simplify things, I'll resume it to one phrase: Bundesliga is the only serious league in which there is only one truly big club.

Ah, yeah, I DO remember you admitting to be a closet commie at some point in the past.
So you thought I wanted to lure you into another political debate, or what?

And who said it's Bayern's fault? It's not Bayern's fault for that situation, but it is a reality that speaks about the balance of power in Bundesliga. It's Bayern and the rest there.

around 10 pages of deicussion and you want to clarify a point everyone knows already?
This fact doesnt make it a weak league. There is only one "truly big" clubs, but I count around 4 or 5 semi-big-clubs, that noone loves to encounter in CL or normal matchday.

+ buying Frings, a declinig player they had no real use for at an inflated price at the time (Hoeneß once admitted that that was done to "help" Dortmund).
