UNION JOIN MLS

Posted by Toeball Tyler

The newest Major League Soccer franchise from Philadelphia has created their identity. The Philadelphia Union will join MLS during the 2010 season. The team colors will be blue and gold (see logo to the right).

The team identity is taken from the 13 original American colonies that met in the 1770s in Philadelphia to break British rule and form a constitution, with the color scheme from the American Revolutionary Army.

Early speculation suggest that the Philadelphia Union will be rivals with nearby DC United and New York Red Bulls.

    Look at that, another MLS logo with a solid execution and even some concept in the mix. Approve!

    The only thing that bothers me is the team name—I think it’s too similar to “United” and actually means pretty much the same thing.
