Not sure if there's any connection, whatsoever, between KC and Lisbon, or between SLC and Madrid. Those names are just dumb.

However, considering that KC's team was originally called The Wiz, they had nowhere to go but up.

Even the name DC United gives me pause. I think the NE Revolution probably has the best name in MLS. It's a shame they're so bad on the pitch .... err .... field.
