    thank god i get the tone that you are not taking this serious.i would rather have the team name be "OTHER" because those suggestions are outragous.

    I didn't really think any of em are good. But that seemed a bit more reasonable. I still don't really think they'll use Barca in the name at all...but that will remain to be seen.

    I have nothing against the great cities of Barcelona and Philadelphia but I feel that Barcadelphia is more apt to become Barfadelphia.

    Just had to get that off my chest.

    And I really hope after the fan vote that the insane Barca crap does not cause you to end up with some shite name. I don't think the puppies could handle that.

    Praise Zolo!

    Barsa and Zolo makin' it

    the Philadelphia Barzolos ! :D


    PS: Man, Barsa is a pro-Catalonia independence club so no mention of Spain even if you're joking, bro. :p

    I'm sure they won't go with such an obviously bad name. It's more of a joke on the rumours of Barca affiliation.

    Barca Philadelphia?

    http://www.examiner.com/x-4128-New-...erg-wants-MLS-to-kick-it-up-a-notch-or-twoVVV

    In the interview with FOX Sports' David Sternberg the writer L.E. Eisenmenger adds this...

    "And how about an FC Barca franchise, wouldn’t it be great to see a peacock with the poultry? If not Barca Miami, why not Barca Philadelphia, or better yet, just Barca? Maybe an Everton, a Man U. Here. Why not?"

    Because L.E., Barca Philadelphia or Barca or Barcadelphia is no way to go through life--we'd all have to be fat, drunk and stupid eh?
    Wait I may resemble that remark if it comes true...

    How about just answer a question with a question:

    "How about no?"

    I'm sure most Philly soccer fans don't want their MLS team to be Barca's farm club. I know I wouldn't. Barca Philly is like New York Munich or something.
