BOCA vs Timbers.......

[THE HCP]

Hey soccer heads, I'm up here in Sea-Town working the Sounders game. They are playing BOCA before they come down to Portland. Question, why is this team called "MOUTH"?

has something to do with the neighborhood they were founded in IIRC. I'll get something more concrete for ya in a sec.

Foundation
On 3 April 1905, five Italian immigrants gathered in the Plaza Solís, located in the heart of the La Boca neighborhood of Buenos Aires.[6] Esteban Baglietto, Alfredo Scarpati, Santiago Sana, and brothers Juan and Teodoro Farenga founded Boca Juniors. The use of English language in football team names was commonplace, as British railway workers had originally introduced association football into Argentina.[7]

Quite a strange couple of days for the MLS clubs. DC United beat AC Milan 3-2 while the Sounders thrashed Boca Juniors 3-0.
