The way the mls tries to copy the way premier league teams are named is one of many reasons the league is awful. I can’t imagine anything less entertaining then watching guys run around for 90 minutes dropping like a rock at the slightest contact and most of the time not seeing anyone score. Soccer is a terrible sport

Thanks. Looking forward to the season. I have been a Sporting fan since the old Wizards days, but I have no issues support both teams.

You're so cool. Look at you, shitting on the most popular sport in the world. I wish I could grow up to be as cool as you are. Can you teach me how to make shitty comments about things other people like that aren't hurting anybody else? I have a desperate need to prove how manly I am by calling things I don't like dumb.

thats gonna be pretty difficult given how both have stated they are willing to start a rivalry, but you are more than welcome to join us. just know that STL Vs. KC games may be pretty nuts

eh, I like supporting local teams. I support both the Royals and Cardinals. Now when they play each other I cheer for the Cardinals, and will probably be the same with Sporting, but I will enjoy watching both teams.

I mean, this isn't just stupid this is borderline dumb. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. want more proof? the World Cup Final in 2018 was watched by 3.52 Billion People. (The total data for the 2022 world cup isn't available yet)

for refference the SuperBowl is the next highest that year in terms of sports events. which was 112.3 million. the World Cup Final blows the super bowl out of the water.

honestly I expect the Club to be High Mid table. I don't see us going for the MLS Cup or the Supporters Shield in our first season. The fact our Development team in its first season took 2nd in all MLS NEXT made me really feel that the club can be very successful in its first season but i want to be humble and say we have a better shot at mid table than anything else.

How is the atmosphere?

I have to be lured enough from the comfort of watching EPL games at a bar or my own home to make up for the quality difference. I say that as a Southampton fan watching my team fight relegation... again.

Well I kinda can't say what our atmosphere will be like, because St. Louis CITY SC is an absolutely Brand New Club. that plays its first official Match on February 25, 2023.

However the venue we have lined up for our use is Georgia Macs on Republic Rd. and they are the hosting bar for the American Outlaws during International friendlies and Tournaments, so i imagine the atmosphere will be fairly similar to that.
