    I'm OK with it...

    The league needs all the money it can get. So which team is going to be sponsored by Viagra?

    That doesn't look like a new adidas design. I would presume thats a training jersey.

    That could be a practice jersey. The Burn used to have Frosted Flakes on the front of their's.

    Are you all new to MLS? The Crew haven't been sponsored by Snickers since 2000.

    That's an old practice shirt of some sort.

    Precisely.

    That's our old training jersey from 98 or 99 or something like that.

    Snickers is no longer an MLS sponsor. Interesting old shirt though.

    I figured as much.


    That's how sad our sponsoring is. I couldn't tell you who our shirt sponsors are now. Is it Pepsi or something?

    I can tell you the sponsors for pretty much every team in the Premiership. Maybe if they took those stupid logos off the fronts and showed what an effect whoring your kits out to corperations was they'd fvcking get a clue.

    Fvcking MLS. Let's not get corperate money lets bend over for Mexico.

    Hey. LONG time observer, never posted. Anywho, I decided to see what the jerseys would look like with sponsers on the front. (I put Sierra Mist due to the recent news from Pepsi.. that's their sponser, no?)

    There's always the casual fan, and I think that's why MLS is so hesitant to put the sponsors on the front. Yeah, they'd probably get more money, but the casual fan doesn't know if they should be cheering for Honda or Yahoo. Plus, would you really want to pay $65+ for a jersey with a corporate logo splashed on the front?? If they did put the corporate logo on the front, hopefully they'd keep the front of the replicas logo free.

    I don't know why, but these say "Jimmy Buffet" to me.

    Margaritaville FC?

    Looks like it belongs in French Ligue 1. Not bad, but I'd perhaps shrink it down a bit.

    I'd buy one.
