North American soccer struggles with an inferiority complex that puts puts Edmonton's complex wrt Calgary to shame. Rather than build an identity that is North American, we end up with a lot of "look at us, we're just like Europe!" names. Real Salt Lake being easily the most embarrassing.
I noticed in the PDL that Burnaby has a team this year called the TSS Rovers. TSS standing for "Together Standing Strong". That's just incredibly sad.
