    From twitter it looks like USL for 2016, with Silver/Black primary colors with Red as an accent.

    Team name may or may not come today!? I'd guess not, and it will come relatively soon though. This is just to get them on the schedule makers for USL's season schedule!

    Well yeah, SSE has the USL rights. They'll be forging their own team and yes it will be Silver/Black with red accent.

    Well I would rather put money to a MLS squad than to a triple A baseball team which the City of San Antonio is going to attach to the bond to upgrade Toyota field. So on the ballot this fall most likely will be the upgrade to Toyota Field and a downtown AAA baseball stadium.. MLS is getting positive reviews... AAA no so much.. so should be interesting.

    So has there been anything like chatter/rumors on the stadium upgrade/AAA baseball stadium since April? Haven't heard much from anyone MLS to SA for a while. Any news?

    And that stadium for AAA has been shot down, no support for it. I think its hard to have any news, when MLS, has yet to announce what they are looking for. I know in the STM email, they stated the goal is MLS but other than that, not sure what else they can do at this point.

    Very good stuff. MLS would be silly not to take the best sports franchise in North America.

    Bexar County Judge Nelson Wolff has asked Bexar County District Attorney Nico LaHood to investigate whether Major League Soccer officials violated any criminal or civil laws when they encouraged the county in 2015 to purchase Toyota Field and submit a bid for an expansion franchise in San Antonio — two years after Anthony Precourt, chairman of the Columbus Crew, had obtained a legal right in 2013 to relocate the Crew to Austin.
