Sporting is a loan-word in Portuguese. To me, it doesn't really matter how many teams they have, it's still a loan-word.
Football is a loan-word to refer to Soccer. Just like Clube is a loan word in Spanish as is Sporting. I think more loan-words the better!

Real SLC IS stupid, but only because the king didn't recognize it, not because it's a loan-word. And if the king DOES ever grant it, that would be the coolest team ever.

Dynamo is silly and kinda cool cause it's harkens back. Really interesting to see a railroad city use "Locamotive city". That would be wild, but a lot silly.
