I also have a 200 plus team Triple A American Baseball Association and there are a few teams nicknamed Express and I will check where they are in the overall Conference Standings the next time I play.

So if they are the "Real" ones does that makes there fake ones? Like Raal Madrid as apposed to Fake Madrid. Do people get that confuse that they have to specify that they are the real team

Real Madrid translates as Royal Madrid

The SEC has three teams named Tigers so I guess it's ok to have the same name for a few teams in 200 plus team leagues.

i have no idea. i think there is an mls team named 'real,' too. the wnba will have a longer run than the mls. i'd even dare to say it's a more exciting game to watch had i seen one before, LoL.

the only reason soccer is a popular world-wide is because you can tie up an old dirty rag and kick it around a large open space anywhere in the world.

okay, i guess i didn't try hard enough on the first attempt. this one should get someone going, LoL.
