I'm pretty sure Vegara owns the trademark in the US. I could be wrong though.

If i remember right, he doesn't own the name of the fake goats. But this whole problem has been around from about 5 years. It's a nasty problem. Vergara has modified the logo of the real goats. People, especially the supporters, were up in arms because the original logo was based off the flag of Guadalajara. Let's see how this ends because this means millions of dollars lost for him. I hope he loses the team completely.

I interned in the FO for a little while and trust me they are so dumb had they payed off the refs they probably would have presented them one of those huge checks during halftime on the field.

LA Aztecs.


Seeing as CLub America plays at 'The Azteca', and it is a handle closer to them than Chivas, I don't think that would work. At least, if they didn't want to alienate their pro-goat fanbase.

Aztecs was an awesome name when they were around and they could reuse the city flag colors...but nah, they probably wouldn't do that. they'll be like LAFC or something....Lazers?!?

I'm confused. He owns Chivas USA & C.D. Guadalajara but does not own the teams' name and badge trademarks?

Not any more. The original ownership group sold him the rights to run the club for 10 years. Then after 10 years he bought out the rest from MOST of the ownership group but one major investor never sold out. That one major investor has now been given the rights again.
