Why do teams in North American leagues must feel the need to add "FC" or United in there name. So lame. We get you're a football club. Imagine if all NHL teams started adding "HC".

USL - 24 of 33 teams have FC/SC/United in there name.

MLS - 11 of 23 teams with the gimmick. Minnesota decided to add United and FC.

Euro teams did it so NA teams just have to copy it? Hopefully this league stays away from it.
