Being the first jersey sponsor is great, but continuing with a ridiculous sponsor/company that has little to no importance in Utah much less out of it is a waste of an opportunity to attract a good marketing presence. Here's waiting 'til 2013.

It doesn't matter if it has little to no importance in Utah. If they pay the sponsorship money, then they can put their name on there.

Little or no inportance? I have to friends that work for Xango. Jobs are pretty inportant. I don't know how many jobs they offer but two is enough for me. And its money in the bank for RSL, so who cares, not like its amway....

Xango ... isn't there anyone else out there that can sponsor the team? It was amusing (and mildly embarassing) to watch Amway playing Xango last week.

Xango, what a joke, Would hate to be affiliated with that word. Spent lots of money on that ponzi scheme and still waiting for results. Never happens.

Agreed

If they foot the bill then so be it. They're trying to get their name out there.

I was wearing my RSL jersey in Washington and a lady came up to me raving abut Xango. Go figure.

When we went to the Colorado Rapids game in Denver, that weekend just happened to be the weekend of a XANGO convention. As we sported our RSL gear, everybody thought we were there for the convention, as it was being held in the hotel we were staying in.
