Vote: San Antonio's new NASL team holding open Name-the-Team contest

I don't know how many of you follow Division 2 soccer in the United States but if you're not from a MLS city, then this is relevant.  Even if  you are, you should still promote Division 2 soccer because a strong soccer pyramid is what makes MLS stronger (i.e., Seattle, Portland, Vancouver, Montreal).  Anyways, Division 2 has been a complete shit show the past year with the feud between the re-vamped NASL and USL.  It seems now that USL has refocused their motives for Division 3 soccer in the new USL-PRO league (Go Battery!!!), and NASL is applying to be the viable Div. 2 league.  NASL granted my home city San Antonio a franchise for the 2012 season, owned by local philanthropist Gordon Hartman.  The organization is going in motion by letting the fans name the team and decide the colors.
