You mean kind of like the Futbol Artist's Network only locally? If you haven't seen some of their work artist's have supplied, it's pretty cool stuff. http://www.futbolartistnetwork.com/But, when you say poster show it reminds me of the tweets i saw about the sale Timbers Army did toward the end of the season, selling a lot of Diskin's left over posters

We already have quite a few good designers among our ranks that have put out good quality things for the crew over the years.
It would be great to have more involved, however.
I always though a poster show about soccer would be a good gimmick. Kind of like ArtCrank, but soccer. Yeah, Adam Turman hasn't drawn that same chick he draws kicking a ball yet, has he?

"BICYCLE KICK NORTH SUBURBS" This is the most awesome back to back posts ever on this board. I hear Adam Turman is working on a four part poster series based on the image of a soccer ball next to the Grain Belt Bridge in the pale moonlight and a hot chick straddling a bike.

gotta applaud Portland
What do you when you have a 96 percent renewal rate in your season tickets and 6,500 fans on your waiting list? If you're MLS's Portland Timbers, you extend your brand. Thorns FC, Portland's team in the new NWSL, has already taken more than 2,000 season-ticket deposits for its first season, putting it on course to smash the season mark for a women's pro team.
In 2001, the Washington Freedom with Mia Hamm reported having more than 3,000 season tickets for WUSA's first season.
WPS season-ticket sales for its first season in 2009 ranged from 1,583 for the Chicago Red Stars to 408 for the St. Louis Athletica.

And speaking of logos..... did anyone catch the four finalists crests of Atlanta Silverbacks' contest??? Looks like the final Silverbacks logo has been chosen. Top of the NASL website has the Silverbacks poker chip in line with the other teams

And that's what happens when you crowd source design.

To me that crest screams baseball. Hate it, hate it, hate it.
