There is a press conference tomorrow at the beginning of the NCSAA when NASL is expected to announce Indianapolis as a new team. We've all heard that this was coming, but it's great to see it happening. Don't know if Bruce and I will make it to the meeting, but it's finally more good news for NASL.

The NASL should focus on getting the Cosmos and Islanders on the pitch first. This is really nothing more than a smoke screen for their failed attempt at a 2013 spring season.

I can't imagine that the word "Racing" won't appear somewhere in the name.

Nah, they're not cool enough in Indy to pull that off. I feel like there was a discussion once on naming the new indy team and if I remember right there were a couple of good ones. But the sigh on my part was because, once again, the NASL is allowing the community to choose the name of the team in a vote. But from what I've read about the Brickyard Battalion, I would hope they won't allow any ridiculous cliches.

Am I the only one here who is not bothered by name the team contests? Can someone point to a bunch of counter-examples of new soccer organizations in the US that started up and came up with brilliant names solely based on the brilliant ideas of the ownership and their marketing wiz teams?
