    Sorry, I’m relatively new to Portland and the MLS. What’s the issue at hand? Do you have a previous post with more of the back-story about this? Is the term “Cascadia Cup” owned by fan organizations and MLS is using it improperly…? So many questions! Thanks, all.

    Long story short: The Cascadia Cup was created by the supporters groups long before any of the teams were in MLS. It has always been by the fans, for the fans.

    Last month, MLS filed a trademark request in Canada for “Cascadia Cup”.

    Fan, meet dung.

    This thing just continues to blow me away. How could the MLS think the optics on this would be anything other than shady?
