Yup. But only earlynlast season.

Replace Baby Shark with Ismael
Replace Mommy Shark with Tajouri
Replace Daddy Shark with Shradi
Replace Gradman Shark with Tajouri
Replace Grandpa Shark with Shradi
Replace Let's Go Hunt with Let's Score Goals
Replace Run Away with NYC
Replace Safe At Last with FC

And it's quite catchy...

I'm pretty sure that was proposed for another player a couple years ago. That was my first 3xposure to baby shark.

Not player. For the team. The logic was that MCFC was Shark Team and we were kicking ass at the top of the season: Baby Shark...

Damn near a year ahead of time. :tearsofjoy:
 
" NYCFC supporters have nicknamed Parks "Big Bird," which I think is the best nickname in the league."

is this true? quoted from Doyle's Q&A article on MLssoccer.com

I've never heard this before.
