    Sorry for the rumor mill but I couldn't help myself. This is from soccernet.com(2nd to last paragraph only)

    "Speaking of Sampson, what is going on in Galaxy land? We get it Steve, it's your team, but do you have to trade everybody who was on last year's roster? Rumor has it that Sampson is even lobbying for a name change. France 98 and the Los Angeles Nil-Nil Draws probably aren't in contention for the new name but maybe they should be."

    It sounds like our ESPN writer just has some unresolved issues with Senor Sampson and can't resist making inane comments like that. He must use another name when he posts Big Soccer.............

    I would like to submit "Los Angeles Wanderers" for your consideration.

    I would love that name but I would pernounce it with a spanish accent like Santiago Wanderers .
    I would be so ********ing happy with a name change, but I have learned to love the name Galaxy

    I'd have to go with the Los Angeles Wanderers it would remind me of Bolton and that's good by me

    The Los Angeles Gridlock would be more appropriate than the Wanderers.

    I've always hated the Galaxy name. I feel like i'm 8 years old chanting that name. Change it.

    "los angeles aztecs" would be rad.

    "los angeles matadors" would be radder.

    "los angeles fist" would be raddist.

    "los angeles greased abs" would not be rad, but it would give the FO an excuse to put donovan shirtless in our ads, so it's the obvious choice.

    LA Aztecs sounds the best of all. This would even help the ChivasUSA bigger. Think about it. We'll be known as a team that cares about good soccer and not where your from. :rolleyes: We'll pull mexicans from other teams that don't root for Chivas in Mexico.
