I just stumbled upon a website that is a comprehensive list of defunct teams, leagues and venues. The site was created by Andrew Crossley, GM of the WPS' Boston Breakers in 2011. In soccer it lists, among others, the Philadelphia Atoms, Spartans and Ukrainians; and the American Soccer League and North American Soccer League. It's called Fun While It Lasted. Alot of memories on these lists.

The First Fan
Who knew that our new president was a huge soccer fan. Apparently so, according to Sports Illustrated, which writes: "Joe Biden has helped inaugurate an MLS club, been to three World Cups, had a say on equal pay and, as the new POTUS, will play a part in 2026 World Cup preparations. Here are the tales from his time around the highest levels of soccer."
The story is written by Brian Straus and entitled, "Biden and the Beautiful Game."
