I've noticed that there is some discrepancy over Red Bulls acronyms. Some people abbreviate it NYRB. Others RBNY. So to solve this little mystery I went to the Red Bulls website, only to discover that they don't even know what to call themselves. The name appears both ways right at the top of the page. Way to keep a cohesive brand identity, guys.
I think the only solution is to revert back to the old name, so I'm looking forward to this weekend's game against the MetroScum.

Had MLS been around in the 80s
Is there any question they would have been the New York New Cokes?
But after the public rejected them, they’d go back to the name their playoff abilities suggest: Choke-a-Cola Classic.
The real explanation
When they changed from one stupid name to another, people were told to call the organization RBNY, but the team would be called NYRB. You figure it out.
It’s this kind of thinking that has caused them to continue telling us about the La Meaningless Preseason Friendly Tournament Cup as if it were a real triumph and not the MLS equivalent of a participation ribbon.

Brand clash
That’s what happens when you sell your soul — no one knows whether to address you or your sugar daddy in the red suit.
