MLS Philly Gets a Name
Match Fit USA —
... If you haven't already heard, Philadelphia's new MLS teams has officially been dubbed " Philadelphia Union ". It's not the worst thing that could have happened, and the crest and colors are fairly nice. It's good to see the new club follow Seattle's lead and actually listen to their prospective fan base, rather than to run off on their own and screw everything up. Since I don't have time to go in-depth on Philly's name, I thought I'd re-post something I wrote on the issue of club naming way back in the formative days of the blog (i.e., four months ago). If you've already read ...

Look for the Union label
HexagonalBlog —
Philadelphia Union Logo Philadelphia's MLS team has decided upon their name, and it is... Philadelphia Union . The team said that the name is representative of the nation's colonial past and the city's central role in the nation's founding. And all this time I was thinking that the name had selected in honor of the city's role in the labor movement. Either way, the team motto "Jungite aut Perite" -- Join or Die -- is just too perfect. The team directors put a lot of work into the meaning of all elements of the logo and the colors and ended up with something ...

Why We Love Sports - Completely Random Day With Kid Poker, Strasburg, Kaka and More
On the DL —
Today is a weird day, and one we feared when we started doing daily shows. When we don’t have a big guest and there isn’t much to talk about in sports, what do we do? > We learned today that there is always something to talk about in sports. First, we discuss the reported transfer of Kaka from AC Milan to Real Madrid. The estimated price tag for this move is 68m euros or more than 94 million bucks. And that’s just for the rights from one team to the next. That doesn’t include paying the actual player. > We shift the conversation to wonder if that would ever happen in ...

We discuss later in the interview, if Wahl had thought to write about the entire Beckham ...
