Re: Expansion City Kit Designs (ARTWORK)
Here's another one guys: Club Atlético de Miami or Athletic Club of Miami, using sharks as the mascot/unofficial nickname. The color combo would be unique to MLS, and it also ties in with the Heat and Panthers, and also the Strikers from the NASL. Enjoy!
EDIT: The uncanny resemblance between my design and Reading FC's crest was pointed out to me after I finished designing it, without ever seeing Reading's crest. I swear I never saw Reading's before(at least I don't remember it), and it's just weird how close it ended up being.

Why not just call 'em the Miami Sharks, and be done with it? They won't be an athletic club, or be part of one, or probably not even be sponsored by one, so Athletic Club of Miami sounds stupid, at least to me.
The uniform design does look good, though  .

Or, why not call them the Miami Makos? Of the 2 names dr gave, Tiburones is the coolest, IMO. No team in the USA or Canada has that nickname.
Yes, I know, there is only one Mighty Ducks, too, but Tiburones is light years better than that.....
I agree w/DavidP about the uniforms. The red/yellow is not used by anyone else in MLS, that I know of, and is really very distinctive. Plus, to me, is screams Strikers. That's a nice tribute to South Florida's 1st successful pro team. The white/yellow away jersey is also fine and a very good variation on the home red/gold. I'm not fond of the black, however. Perhaps a version of the USL1 FC Miami blue would do better for a 3rd shirt. It would be different and would also pay tribute to the recent past.
I like the crest, even if it does resemble someone else's.
As ever, kudos to dr for a very good attempt.

HAHAHA Publix as our sponsor! I love it! haha
We were talking in the Miami thread about red, white, and blue being overused in MLS. I'm terrible with photoshop and everything or else I'd do it myself but could we see the Miami one in either green/orange or red/orange? Thanks! They all look really good.

Why Boeing for Philadelphia? That would make a lot more sense in Seattle or Chicago. (Now that I think of it, Boeing would be better than BestBuy for Chicago)
I have a silly idea: what about Philadelphia food brand sponsors Philadelphia?

The hoops look appropriate, but are they too FC Dallas and Celtic?
