    Don't care about soccer either way, but what do people think of this LAFC thing? Will they quickly displace the Galaxy simply by playing in DTLA instead of Carson? Galaxy name is cheesy AF, too.

    I mean, nobody really cares but just curious.

    I went to every Galaxy game their first few years in existence with 5 to 20 members of my family at a time. We would meet other more extended family and friends there too. It was mostly a cultural phenomenon thing for my people.
    Very different atmosphere than other sporting events. It was a party all day.

    As far as the name, everyone hated it. Specially the colors early on.
    They should at least get a sponsorship deal with Samsung at this point.
    Or rebrand as the LA Stars. They are on their way with the new logo and kinda purple and gold color scheme they have going now.

    LAFC is an obvious cash grab.

    Mom grew up in San Pedro. Said they used to go to Wrigley Field and watch the Stars.

    Yeah but I think that's what they were going for. The hollywood galaxy full of stars type of thing. Bringing in star players to play for LA in front of hollywood movie stars. Like other originally LA based sports teams have done in the past.
    Or produce an animated kids show featuring players from the team as the crew of the S.S. Galaxy space cruiser.

    Or shortened Maradonna's life. He had an elevated blood pressure and was helped out of the stadium.

    Germany out and Mexico in by a twist of fate?????? Argentina BARELY in as well. If they don't play each other in the knockouts I wouldn't be surprised that Mexico and Argentina meet in the final.

    I was wrong on Argentina and expect to be on Mexico. No Messi or Ronaldo ratings just went down.
