FC Dallas and DC United are traditional soccer names, MetroStars definitely is not, and Real Salt Lake is incredibly traditional. I think you're reading it wrong. It's not "Real" as in the opposite of "fake." It's "Real" (ree-yal) the Spanish word for "royal." It's a reference to Spanish soccer giants Real Madrid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5021833364511301475.post-90579639159757017632005-02-28T22:02:00.000-05:002005-02-28T22:02:00.000-05:00I think your just some stupid idiot that has nothi...I think your just some stupid idiot that has nothing better to do with his life than criticize stuff like team names. 1st of all, i doubt that the Rapters were named after the Jurassic Park movie, sorry to smash your well thought out idea, but no. And the big deal that your making about shortening Hockey names, big deal!! Who really cares except you. If people want to shorten the name of something up, let them. It doesnt really matter, I think you should stop complaining about stupid stuff like this so we can get on with OUR lives. 1 thing i can agree with you on is the WNBA names, there just wierd. but honestly, i dont even know you and i already hate you, your prolly the kid in your school that got beat up for starting stupid debates like this with people to try and make yourself look tough. Get over it and get on with your life, just let it go, people like sports, who cares what the team name isAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5021833364511301475.post-81347791931678798112007-12-22T09:52:00.000-05:002007-12-22T09:52:00.000-05:00I'm from corpus christi , Hooks fan.
