Oh, just looked back a few pages. A fake
Never ever ever call it a uniform again, ever!
My duality of feelings is just weird. I love the home, massively prefer it to last year's. However, I've made it pretty clear how I feel about the color choice of the away.
What will be interesting to see is how people here in the US react to seeing someone walking around in one of these. Most of the sponsors over the years for the big clubs are either brands people don't recognize here, or the coloring is such that they aren't noticeable. As some of you may know, sponsors are not allowed to slap their shit all over jerseys in professional sports here. So what we have now in this situation is a sponsor emblem that is A) recognizable here and B) stands out like a fiend on the shirt. For example, I sent the picture of the away to a non-football following friend to make fun of it, and his response was, "Holy fucking shameless branding. Their printers blow." Only after pointing out to him that sponsor display is typical in European professional football, did he make comment on the color.
Not something major, but will still be interesting to see the response.

That's what's doing the rounds on Twatter. A fake I hope.
Fear not, already been discredited as shown to be from an adidas template.
I just wanted to do a bit of a check. It appears only thee of the ninteen (why the fuck 19 across two leagues remains a mistery) do not have a sponsorship on their shirts. And I am counting the fucking huge red bull logo on the new york kit. So surely this guy has at least seen an MLS shirt with sponsorship on it somewhere..
As long as they paid extra for the larger size and off color scheme to make it "pop", thats ok.
Okay, perhaps good was a bit too far but I still think this
looks far better than the likes of these:
I don't think that dude he's talking about has seen a minute of an MLS game.
I really dig this year's shirts. Blue shorts too. I'm happy.

False choice. Short shorts only look good on women, you dunce.
This. MLS receives very little coverage in the media here. Fella in all likelihood could not name a single MLS team.
What's MLS?
