    Really disappointed in the new jerseys. Such great colors for a jersey and they botched it pretty bad. With the target logo, you really can't do a sash. Target logo on the white ones is too black. Be a nicer jersey if the logo was a lighter shade. Bleh, at least they can't ruin the logo, right?

    Still the best crest in MLS. Why they felt they needed to reproduce elements of it in the form of a sash, I have no idea. They could have made the sash much more narrow, and contrasted with a darker color.

    Safe to say, I will not be spending money on that. And with those prices, I am not sure I would buy one even if I liked it.

    I bought the grey one anyway - given the fact that it's still only been six months since the announcement we were starting up, it's better than what I hoped for, and I'm guessing it'll grow on me...kind of like those US Bomb Pop kits (which I wish I'd bought).

    In tennis, I believe they would call that an unforced error...

    Sorry. It's showing up. That's just the tennis term I would use. A double fault committed by the Marketing Whiz Kids...

    You guys have the BEST crest but, possibly, the worst kit. Look forward to giving you all hell when you come to ATL.

    Good luck, you buncha loons! Your squad looks like they know how to play together - ours are brand shiny new. Should be a memorable clash.

    I've started my own personal thread on the ATL subsection simply for the purpose of slamming you. Feel free to drop by and give it all back.

    LOL...Cheers.

    I am pretty happy with the squad they have built. Wouldn't mind another FB or a dedicated 6, but I wouldn't be surprised if that will be the summer DP signings they make.

    We play Toronto today, so I would imagine we will start seeing what we will put out week one.

    Personally, i pull for anyone at all who plays against TFC. I've taken it into my head to discriminate against all things Canadian. I was angered back in tbe day when American cities couldn't gt a franchise, but they handed them out to Toronto and Vancourver et al. Dont' get me wrong: those are great cities, GREAT supporters, etc. - but I wanted the teams here.

    TFC are solid - good luck.

    Can't with until we have the USMNT playing qualifiers at the new stadium. There are a few teams we could throw lutefisk at.

    Now, how do we get it past security? :laugh::laugh:

    Lutefisk is protected under the constitution.

    And there it is - you guys are no longer "Loons". Now you're Minnysoda Lutefisk. "Lutefisk"? It sounds like a medieval sexual fetish involving a stringed instrument. Probably also tastes that way.

    Come on, a little bit of lye never hurt anyone.

    Ole & Lena jokes are a lot more deadly.
