Looks sort of like Munich's old Olympic stadium, which by the way is much better than the rubber raft their current stadium resembles. Hope they get it.

That looks pretty cool... I hope they get it... then i hope they rename the team like Dallas did... KC Wizards is one of the lamest names in MLS

Wizards fans would probably say it comes in second right behind RSL.

Basically everyone but RSL fans dislike RSL's name.

Not they we care or anything.

Right, and what would Wizard fans care what RSL fans think. The only name that must go in this league is Chivas USA. Beyond that, let's leave them. In 20 years they'll be so ingrained that we would all throw a fit if any were changed. Give 'em time.
