End the MLS...NOW

If there was even a call to end Major League Soccer in America, this is it. It was bad enough last year when the New York team changed their name to "The Red Bulls." OK, that was passable, even though it was a sponsorship. But today came the news that Chicago's team, the Fire will essentially now be known as "Best Buy." While they claim the name Fire will still exist, look at the picture of the jerseys. Do you see the name "Fire" on there anywhere other than that 2 inch logo? I know I don't. Not that anyone will care because clearly nobody does. Quick, name two teams in the league. Name three players in the league not named David Beckham. You can't. Neither can I. If your league is this desperate that your teams have to have sponsors across the front of your jersey in big bold letters, its probably not a good sign. This isn't Europe where that works. Look at that picture. What a deuche! MLS RULES!!!!

Best Buy? This just might be the worst - Greg Couch, Chicago Sun-Times

you're retarded, every soccer team in the world has some kind of sponsor on the jersey (or more than 1 in many cases). It's about the sport, not locale. Some teams of course have charities on them (Barcelona, Boca). Don't blog if you don't know anything.
