For a counterpoint I suggest: Detroit City FC // the USL. That is a club which seems to be as grassroots as a professional sports team can be, even in a lesser (?) league.

I’m very interested in the USL, especially as they try to implement a top flight with relegation.

I saw that DC United won last night. How about that!

My wife and I just got Washington Spirit season tickets. We went to a few matches last year and it’s fun to watch them win and be a top flight league.

Great stuff as always. Slainte!

NWSL is fun and a great value for fans. Looking forward to the new look SD Wave.

It's quite an audacious enterprise for a corporation to try to root out one particular form of name-calling but not others, especially when it's so rooted in the native football culture of the fanbase, but I hope they manage where others have failed.
