Funny. KC used to be the Wizards. Dallas Burn?
They thought copying would increase support.

Typically when a team name is "Sporting", they have multiple sports under the same banner (soccer, basketball, etc.). SKC is planning on doing the same thing. I've read that they want to add lacrosse and some other smaller sports.
Chivas is a team that is in the Mexican league. The Chivas USA owners wanted to try to capitalize on the Mexicans living in LA so they branded the team as the American extension of the Mexican club. Needless to say, it has failed miserably and are being forced to sell the team which will then rebrand.

Sporting KC IS a sporting club. Not just a soccer club. They also have lacrosse and maybe basketball (can't remember). Overall, I agree.
Chivas USA has been a massive failure. It's a sister (sort of) club to Chivas de Guadelajara in Mexico. The idea was to attract Chivas fans/Mexicans and bring them in. They just forgot to realize that Chivas is but one club in Mexico and they're just alienating non Chivas fans. It doesn't help that LA Galaxy is also one of the most popular/successful clubs in MLS and is in the same city.
