Just Win Baby!
As sports history parallels go, Brooklyn Football Club's move back to the West is more like the Oakland Raiders, who adjourned to Los Angeles for awhile, before the inevitable yo-yo back to Oaktown. Not that Brooklyn is anywhere as bad as LA...but I understand that lately Scott has been sporting some Run-DMC-style sweatsuits and slicked-back, greying hair, a la Mr. Al Davis:

The Raiders' escape from LA was the first step in the collapse of (American) pro football in Los Angeles, so let's hope that BFC's movement is the last exodus from Brooklyn, not the first of many. And for those of us already in Northern California: We welcome you back, our prodigal son, with open arms...and open piggy banks as we prepare to pay for personal seat licenses in your soon-to-be-relocated BFC stadium.

This is interesting but dead wrong. And to think I was about to award you the First Ever Tony Tuesday award. Actually, I still might.
Brooklyn FC started in Brooklyn. Brooklyn FC didn't start in California. Got it? Otherwise it would be the Castro Cup and Castro FC. Got it, punk?
I would bet that Brooklyn FC stays on Clinton Street even though Scott no longer lives on Clinton Street. I could be wrong, but we'll see. He's operating on skeleton internet access until he gets into his new apartment, which could be as late as Nov 1.
Aye, that's correct.
