purpleink ([info]purpleink) wrote in [info]fandom_wank,
I googled this guy. Apparently he is very, very passionate about what MLS names their teams. Among other things, he argues that the Earthquakes have a terrible team name because:

I can't wait to see how freaking unpopular that team name is when you the bay area gets leveled by an 8.6 earthquake. Calling a team Hurricane or Earthquake is one of the more ignorant cultural embarrassments that have been created over the last 40 years in our domestic sporting landscape.

Also, all teams should only have the name of the city they play for, since that's how they do it in the U.K.

Of course.

I'm not sure how far back in the thread he made his original comment they're all replying to, but the thread is here:
