Lamar Hunt is one of the co-founders of American Football League, Kansas City Chiefs, Chicago Bulls as well as Major League Soccer.

So in 2011 the team owners went on the process of rebranding. Not only the team’s colors have they changed, but also the representation of the team itself, making it one of the most prestigious competitors in MLS.
The team has always been one of the toughest competitors of the league. In 2000 they achieved double success by clinching MLS Cup and MLS Supporter’s Shield. That was one of the most successful seasons in the club’s history. In 2004 Sporting finished a runner-up in the MLS Cup and played in the final of MLS Supporter’s Shield. In 1997, 2000 and 2004 the team finished first in the MLS Western Conference. In 2011 they clinched the first place in the MLS Eastern Conference and reached semi-final in the MLS Cup.
