the wizards name sucked though and it was a good change

Hard disagree - Wizards was in keeping with American sports club name traditions and had a specific reference to Kansas; Sporting had no local or historical connections whatsoever; it was just aping foreign naming conventions.

I don't have a problem with doing that on occasion (and I can think of some "foreign" soccer club names we should be using, but aren't), especially when you are creating a brand new club identity out of thin air, but overwriting an existing identity that has already established some history is another matter altogether.

MLS has this thing for constant rebranding which undercuts any attempt to build up a solid historical foundation and identity. It's stupid and counterproductive.
