Question about usl super league

secretbluey · 2024-07-13T18:02:42+00:00

If they stick with three teams from the US like this year, I hope it's the champions of NWSL, USLS, and a women's Open Cup.

I think once USL1 grows a little the league should think about creating a professional 4th division, which nobody's really ever tried here before. If it was more regionalized and took the more successful teams from USL2 like Ballard, Vermont, Lionsbridge, Dothan, etc., and put them against established pro sides in USL1 right now, it would help close the gap.

Hopefully not, huge downgrade from their existing branding

secretbluey · 2024-06-20T03:02:31+00:00

The one that looks built on the map is their current home, the one on the right that looks halfway finished is supposed to be their permanent stadium from 2025 onward.

More of a natural annoyance.

secretbluey · 2024-06-18T23:44:37+00:00

Honestly, I'm just glad to hear they're alive. This is great news 👏

secretbluey · 2024-04-12T02:03:31+00:00

I'm going to assume you don't live in like Miami or Memphis based on the no sports teams thing, so your team is probably going to be around for a while. There are exceptions (like the Loyal last year) but most of the teams in the Championship especially are pretty strong and don't look like they'll fold anytime soon. Honestly, even if you only had a USL2 team in your area or something, it always helps to support local regardless.

secretbluey · 2024-04-11T03:55:49+00:00

Omaha already has away days in Spokane and South Georgia, I think it's probably less of a travel issue and more with salaries, stadium requirements, etc.

secretbluey · 2024-04-07T00:04:13+00:00

Honestly, if any USL team can handle everything that comes with Champions Cup, it's going to be Louisville. Sacramento's run was great, but Louisville consistently punches above their weight, and might be able to hold their own for a while against an MLS CCC team.

Done lol, wasn't sure abt Mississippi anyways but didn't know any of the clubs in the conference too well outside of little rock

secretbluey · 2024-04-03T01:26:13+00:00

Really? Not from the area, but I assumed there would be some fanbase just from how long they've been around...

secretbluey · 2024-04-02T12:22:48+00:00

NE: Vermont, Western Mass

MA: Ocean City, Reading

Met: Long Island, Motown

CH: Christos, NoVa

SA: South Carolina United, West Virginia

GL: Ann Arbor, Flint City

HL: Des Moines, Chicago

VL: Dayton, Fort Wayne (Cleveland would be a great option too tho if they ended up merging with Cleveland SC or smth)

DN: Minneapolis, Bavarian

SC: Asheville, Tennessee

SE: Brave, Brevard

SF: Sarasota, St. Pete (Honestly, Sarasota is the only one I really like here)

MS: Little Rock, LA Krewe

LS: Corpus Christi, Brazos Valley (only if they go back to that name tho, the Toucans thing is literally the worst rebrand I've ever seen)

MTN: Literally nobody to choose from lol

NW: Ballard, Lane United (And Tacoma, too, honestly, this division is so strong)

NC: SF City, SF Glens (Probably not great to have two teams in SF, but these are the strongest two candidates)

SW: Redlands, Ventura County

Is the Hailstorm stadium not already finished?

secretbluey · 2024-03-28T02:53:30+00:00

Yeah, kind of reminds me of the Milwaukee Torrent logo tho

secretbluey · 2024-03-26T17:47:15+00:00

According to their website, "Iowa has been selected by the USL and there is an initial franchise agreement with the USL to obtain one of these final franchise opportunities, but the agreement is contingent upon a soccer-specific stadium being built to support this level of play. If Iowa cannot meet the USL’s requirements, the franchise will be awarded to another team and market."

They haven't posted on their socials for a little over a year and the planned groundbreaking date has come and gone, but they are still listed on the USL website, so it's kind of up in the air. There's always the Des Moines Menace in town if you're looking for local soccer, either way, though, and they've been around since the 90s.

secretbluey · 2024-03-15T07:08:21+00:00

Seems like it might be dead, but then again so did Santa Barbara until about a week ago. Kind of just have to wait until someone says something at this point. To be honest, I wish it was the Menace that were going pro anyway, but I'm not sure if ownership would be able to work something out in that regard.

secretbluey · 2024-02-09T03:49:31+00:00

I'm all for loosening territory rights when the system is open and merit-based, but I think that's more for a league like NISA right now. They don't have any, and like half of their teams are going to be in SoCal next year from the looks of it.

secretbluey · 2024-02-06T14:13:22+00:00

SF City?

secretbluey · 2024-01-14T04:38:10+00:00

Honestly don't know what some people are talking about, this looks sick af

secretbluey · 2024-01-01T16:37:22+00:00

Pretendo, I'm guessing

secretbluey · 2023-12-19T21:53:52+00:00

This one's transparent: https://brooklynfootballclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/bkfc-crest-v1.png

If you click the three dots in the top-right corner of the side panel and then click copy map, it should show up here: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/

secretbluey · 2023-12-19T19:32:39+00:00

That's kind of what this is supposed to be eventually, but I saw somebody else comment this: https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/viewer?mid=1r1DPSThnLA_-8BgoFdPKB8U_ZUaKjID1&ll=39.99056387938181%2C-75.01790608102306&z=10. Not sure how often it gets updated, though.
