As I said if you want to run the league like that then that's up to them. But I will no longer try to defend it in that case.

Derivative names do suck and lower the credibility of a league. Having Glazer and his money in Los Angeles is another matter. If he does buy the team I would bet the farm that he doesnt make that silly name change.
My suggestion would be SDPM Los Angeles ala PSV Eindhoven
