MLS Debuts New Match Ball Called Prime, It's More Than Meets the Eye

Sorry for the bad headline, I couldn't resist.

MLS and adidas released images on the new 2012 match ball. Gone is everyone's favorite Jubalani, replaced by Prime...looks facny. The ball of course has no relation to Optimus Prime...or Rodimus Prime...I'll just stop

Looks cool I suppose...

Alright, I'm done...I promise.

I know it's the same colors on the MLS logo, but...

…not really enjoying the Sounders’ colors on the ball.

Here’s an idea, since the MLS Cup holder gets to have the silver balls, why can’t we have each team be able to put their own colors on the balls they p[ay at home. So the blue and green on there could be orange and light blue for games played at Dynamo Park.

Any thoughts?

Like it

but that would require “customization”, which requires effort and therefore out of the purvey of adidas’ contract. I think it’d be pretty nifty though…
