Why I like the Name of Crew

Columbus Crew has alliteration.  It has the baseball'esque naming system.  As a fan of Fußball Cincinnati and their relevant branding update into Major League Soccer, I'm still jealous of my Crew.  It's a cool name.

If it were Austin Crew, I'd be mourning for Columbus and the status of charter teams in the MLS, especially the first one to play ball with an all-soccer stadium in the middle of the state fairgrounds.  Downtowns won't necessarily always be relevant.  But this is a business with a mercenary nature.  Like LeeBraun.

Every team might as well be Cincinnati Mercenaries, Columbus or Austin Mercenaries.  Mercenary New York II.  Mercenary Vegas.
