Did anyone else see these?
I think this is a horrible, horrible idea that NYCFC and MLS are pursuing. First of all, it is beyond stupid to try to make NYC residents becomes fans of a team that is only a feeder to Manchester City, let only emblazing that feeder status onto their kit. And second, you are alienating a ton of fans who might otherwise be inclined to root for NYCFC but won't because of their so-clear affiliation with Manchester City (in NYC, there are a ton of Chels, Arsenal, United and Spurs fans).
It's like the league learned nothing from the Chivas mess. I used to think Red Bull was doomed, but now I'm not so sure.
