US Open Cup: Under Scrutiny
The Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup is the longest serving tournament in the American soccer landscape at 109 years old. For many the tournament generates a historical reverence and respect only famous monuments tend to receive. Yet, despite its historical importance to the history of the sport in America, it is under attack by a league (MLS) that for all purposes is in stark contrast to what soccer is in almost every other part of the world. A league with a design to shelter and protect its members from all the unpleasantries clubs elsewhere else have to deal with on a regular basis. I am referencing the exposure teams the world over face when they compete in their national cup competitions. The exposure to “the Upset”. Arguably the greatest aspect of any sport and more directly these nationally held club soccer/football tournaments. The chance of an upset is what gives character to these tournaments. It provides the local media and fans alike the chance, for a fleeting moment, to embrace, enjoy, or commiserate the result of their team's win or loss. It is precisely this emote that encapsulates the mystique and allure that draws in fans new and old. But for Don Garber and MLS, the US Open Cup represents an eye sore, a blemish on the product (MLS) they are trying to cultivate and portray to the world and local viewers.

Logos
Introduction I saw a sad thing today, a dad was out with his young son and he was wearing a shirt that said "Etihad Airways" and I immediately thought "Is he a Manchester City supporter". There are many sports fans who just follow whoever is the most successful. The first two verses from Bob Dylan's "Positively Fourth Street" comes to mind when I think of this.
