This is unbearably cringe. Stop trying to be Europe.

Well you're a dumb frog poster so you're very familiar with that.
>>
>>155175517
union is OK
it's literally based on the original 13 colonies, a "more perfect union", and leans heavily into the history
FC at the end is just basic shit
united is kind of lame, usually named by people who don't follow soccer and heard of manchester united
sporting KC (and real salt lake) are incredibly terribly names, though
>>
Union is a based name, the rest are garbage.
>>
its fine, sounds better than tigers hurricanes etc
>>
bring back the Kansas City Wiz
>>
>>155175517
You left off the best one of all: Real Salt Lake
>>
>>155176202
At least those are authentic

>>155175517
For me, its DC.

>>155175517
They should be named after disasters like the carolina hurricanes or new York jets

it's plastic as hell because none of them have the amateur athletic club heritage of the Euro teams they're trying to emulate. all the MLS teams are structured like an American sport franchise, that's their identity and function. trying to pretend they're something they're not is lame, and is only going to make it look like they're ashamed of themselves. all it does is reinforce the image of soccer being a sport for effeminate europhiles.

>>155175517
My team, LA Galaxy, is so fucking based. Everything they do is unapologetically American including winning the most championships. Plastics at LA Former Chivas will never know what this SOVL is like

>using their names as tongue-in-cheek references to European clubs
I think it's fun, don't be so boring.

It’s cringe but they’re my cringe team, I love going to games

>Argentineans use an English name
:^)
>Americans use an English name
:^(
>>
>>155175517
Okay but Inter Miami is a based name
>>
Americans had big imposter syndrome in the early 2010s about MLS and it became the ‘it’ thing to follow the sorts standards of naming. Now that half the league is boring no names, everyone hates it. Union was the last good one that wasn’t directly taken from an existing franchise.

This.
But you have to remember, it's either that or basic bitch animal names, or mentholtastic names like the NBA.

most old NBA teams' names predate integration.

United/Sporting is okay imo.
FC is cringe, but inevitable.
"Real" is just nonsensical and stupid.
>>
>>155175517
all the new clubs since 2015 are either FC, SC or United
It's so fucking gay
>>
>>155175517
Is Sporing K.C. supposed to be named after Sporting C.P?
>>
>>155182447
Columbus Crew is pretty based. Their old crest was awesome too.
>>
>>155175517
Just be fucking thankful they don't have corpo names like "Met Life New York FC" or "Ensure DC United" or "Verizon Philadelphia Union."
>>
>>155182840

Well do you prefer old boys or young boys, what's your favourite type of boy, Jeffrey (but gay)

>>155183055
barcelona's women team is Barcelona Femení

so do young boys/old boys call their women team the Fem Boys?
>>
>>155175517
I like the New England Revolution. No FCs given.
I can forgive DC United and Philadelphia Union because both teams go with very American theming and the "union/united" means the US, but KC should be the wizards again and NYCFC the pigeons.
>>
Is this worth following? I have a Apple TV sub that everyone in my house uses but me, so it's not like it'd cost me anything more.
>>
>>155182672
That's a weird one since it's effectively a commie name
And mutts normally hate anything that gives even a whiff communism
