Does anyone know what might happen to the Silverbacks when Atlanta gets their MLS team?

I actually like their badge and name, so didn't know if the MLS team would consider adopting it.

I need one of those Armada jerseys, just because it's sponsored by the dang Winn Dixie.

And the MLS team in Atlanta won't go with the Silverbacks. Not a ton of people like it there.

Atlanta Silverbacks will likely move, if I had to guess. Maybe to Tennessee or (fingers crossed) New Orleans? Baltimore maybe. We'll see. They'll have to move, as their fanbase will crumble even more.

Minnesota United has the most fly kits in the US. So awesome. Cosmos is ok too.

I will always wonder what would've happened if the Cosmos and Man City/Yankees ownership group could've come to an agreement.

Didn't realize that. I don't follow them, but I know they've been around awhile and remember seeing a Silverbacks store near Peachtree City.

I kind of figured. Could NASL contract them though? I remember hearing they had financial problems a couple of years ago. Again, I don't follow them, so I just don't know.

Only in the ghetto.

And that's here in Jax where their HQ's are.

Rumor is Kroger is gonna buy them out completely. They already did in some states/areas.

Another weird thing, is that Publix was the main sponsor on the Armada try out jerseys. That would be a much better one than WD.

It is where I live, and I live where WD has their HQ's, which is why I always found it weird. Publix dominates WD in their home market.

OK. Maybe ghetto was strong. But, around here, go to a nice area and you'll find a Publix. Go to a not so nice area, and you'll find a Winn Dixie.

Ive always liked the Cosmos logo although it looks like a 6 yr old designed it.

I have both just around the corner. I can think of at least 4 in Montgomery. 2 of them are right next to a Publix.

Was with the woman early one morn with my Spain shorts on at Atlantic Beach.

Dudes were scratching their heads (they must have just finished up a light workout).

Idk about that even. I'm originally from Jax and I went to magnet schools with people from all over town, even my friends from "rough" areas of town (ie mostly parts of the north and west sides of town) usually have a Publix at least kinda near their house too.

No idea how Winn Dixie is still in business, every time I go in their stores they're just dirty and poorly maintained.

Auburn used to have two WDs, but they're down to just the one kinda close to campus. It's just in the middle of a strip mall stretch.

Everybody goes to Publix or the one Kroger.

They had a light session on the beach (take advantage of the sand, works your feet and legs, hard to hurt yourself), and I walked up/by in my Spain shorts. They were looking at me (Spain shorts on) and scratching their heads. I spoke to no one.

It was funny (to me, anyway).

Oh, the Armada players. Gotcha. Sorry. Wasn't sure who you were referring to.
