Yesterday my wife my wife tells me she saw a car with a "NY Is Red" bumper sticker. Says that's really obnoxious, but she managed to keep herself from spitting on it.
Who am I married to?

Reasonable question but definitely not, for a handful of reasons. The most direct of which is that what prompted her to say this was she saw me watching the ORL-ATL game. Also, she has a co-worker whose son plays in the RB system (might just be the kid camps for pay - I'm not sure) and he's an RB fan and teased her after 4-0. She knows what NY Is Red means.
NY is Red. Because Cuomo is too much of a centrists because he wants to be president that he’s seen as red by blues in the state?
All forum jokes about NJ, NJRB or whatever aside, did anyone else notice that MLS has switched from calling them "NY" to "RBNY" in the Form Guide and elsewhere? I think it's a concession to the club and its marketing preferences.

I also thought it weird the club didn’t follow MLS convention (in the past). Even on their own broadcasts, they are called Red Bull.
They aren’t the Red Bulls. They are Red Bull.
Which adds nothing other than pointing out something they probably hate but no one else actually cares about.
"Red Bull New York" is the name of the organization. "New York Red Bulls" is the name of the first team.
Watching that game on FS1 Sunday, the commentator repeatedly referred to them as Red Bull. I was embarrassed for them.
On a different note, that defender who was down for 10 minutes and left the stadium immobilized seems to be ok, which is great news. That looked scary.

I was also wondering because I know Dallas and its fans prefer FCD over DAL but the league is still using DAL. I'm not sure how the league decides which teams get to pick their abbreviations and which don't. I also find it confusing that the Galaxy are just LA and not LAG. Since the other LA team has no name, I think of them when I just see LA.
Same for us and NY. I get so confused when they say NY, and mean Red Bull. Always takes me a second to recalibrate.
Definitely. The league and networks will never call them NJ, so I actually prefer the RBNY development. It limits my confusion, and I'm easily confused.
I don't have to even look at it to know it's crap. Paul Gardner material is garbage
This article is a big fat pile of steaming garbage. His thesis is basically “I want skilled playing not the manic thuggery of the high press”. His best lol moment is that he says that there is no space in the Marsch system for a creative midfielder, meanwhile Kaku is leading the league (and is on a MLS record pace) in assists.
A high press can be extremely effective and has its place in today’s game where transition opportunities are as important, if not more so, than possession and tiki taka.
God I hope not. Unless ManU is releasing him outright/not signing him for a loan tour, and no other Euro clubs have shown interest, then heading back to MLS is silly for him. He should really really really try to catch on with another club in Europe.
