Most professional teams train for 1-1.5 hours. Not including gym time or film time

Awesome might be a stretch, but it's certainly better than trying to mimic Euro club names. The best MLS names are the ones where they didn't bother playing that game (Sounders, Revs, etc).

Tampa Bay Rowdies is a cool name…

I'm somewhere in the middle. I don't love the ones that sound like 70s NASL teams (unless they actually were 70s NASL teams like the Timbers and Sounders) but I also don't like the ones that are weird ripoffs of Euro style and don't make sense (looking at you Salt Lake). The Dynamo works for me because of the energy hub in Houston, Minnesota United works because of the twin cities, even Philly I think makes sense.

Dynamo is one of the worst offenders IMO… all the clubs in Europe with that name were historically athletic clubs for Soviet security and secret police forces (to include KGB). Amongst all the Euro monikers, there was absolutely no good reason to use that name.

I love the NASL names because that was the soccer I grew up on and the names were so unique to sports at that time.

The homage MLS played to that style of name was really cool in my mind, and kept the soccer style of US different and unique. Names like Rapids, Burn, Galaxy, etc are just a unique US soccer brand and i personally love it.

Of course, I collect and hunt old NASL pennants and paraphernalia so I am a bit odd anyway.
oh no

I love to see y'all arguing about MLS names, but can we get back to the original point of this thread? It's for me to post about my adopted son.

Thank you.

I didn't know that about the euro dynamos. I always assumed they were energy related. Maybe I bought into some Pr bull**** when they picked the name.

Of course I'm still pissed they don't go with Houston 1836

hoping his documentary drops soon

also, glad to see you've gone with the adopted son angle. I think a lot of us were starting to wonder if you were going for the dream husband angle

Well traffic would be light driving down 35 from DFW around 3.

Probably couldn't have picked a worse day to lay in Austin.

Reddit seems to think Chase is the most likely, which would be a great get at a position of need

So weird scrolling Facebook pics and seeing his vacation pics.
