New Major League Soccer Club LAFC Unveil New Crest, Owner Will Ferrell

Thursday was a big day for Los Angeles' new Major League Soccer franchise, LAFC. 

First, they unveiled a classy new crest for the club that will replace the now-defunct Chivas USA in Southern California. 

Second, they announced one of their new owners, Will Ferrell—fitting for a club so close to Hollywood.

The gold-and-black scheme will be on display when the club debuts in MLS in 2018. 

Not everyone was a huge fan of the new look. As SB Nation points out, it's a bit too familiar to another new MLS franchise.
