    Portland Timbers.

    It's my favourite city in the US.

    FC Dallas.

    Because JR Ewing owns them.

    Red Bulls. Because New York is one of the greatest places on earth and their jersey is nice.

    Gotta go with the Rapids and support Caleb Folan's new club. Scored his first goals for them on Sunday.

    Would love to go for New York but purely cos Henry plays for them I won't support that cheating backstard

    La Galaxy
    Main reason Landon Donovon, his facebook does be funny, seems like a genuine enough guy also if anyone was in the woolshed when he scored against algeria youd understand bit like this whole video

    Chivas USA...they have ultras and a cool red/white striped kit! They are meant to have a pretty noisy set of fans, more European, latin style fans than typical USA.

    I've gone for Toronto, mainly due an ex-Sunderland player and cult hero Danny Dichio being a club legend there.

    From what I've read they're well supported and regularly get sell out crowds, along with being a well run and profitable side.

    Sounders - they cured Freddie Ljungberg's hip injury ( may have been Chicago actually, in which case just use ; they played Fred ), Jersey, and they are my super team in fifa.

    I've gone for the San Jose Earthquakes.

    With the disasters that we've had in Japan and New Zealand, it'd make a difference to be cheering for the earthquakes for a change.

    Chi-town baby! First MLS team I went to see when I lived there.

    Soft spot for the Timbers too as I've been closely following their entry to the league. Interesting story.

    Tried the Fire when I started watching first since I also support the bears & bulls but I couldn't get into it. Not many care about the Fire in Chicago. Big sports city just not a soccer city :(. Shame.

    I went with the Sounders - Great bunch of lads.

    Well I'm a Revs fan. I was at their very first game and was a season ticket holder for a couple of years at the beginning.

    Frank Stapleton was their first manager so theres something for Arsenal and United fans to like about them. And Steve Nicol is the coach there now so Liverpool fans would have a reason to shout for them too.
