Welcome curt, yet another brewery getting involved. If the team is based in Appalachia, you'll need to keep a close eye on moonshine making its way into the roster's diet. Good luck in CT this year!

Welcome to the MGUCI universe! The US clearly have room to support another team and with the already pending sponsor-induced alcoholism in the peloton another brewery comes in handy as well 
Best of luck with your first transfer madness and the following season!

Absolutely agree that the US is a great place to base a team and very cool to see Bass Pro Shops in the secondary sponsors. While not exactly in the marine conservation community, you all can continue to promote ecologically sustainable fishing and hunting. In that regard, good luck with the hunt for good riders this transfer season!

Welcome on board, not sure I am as enthusiastic as others about having another US-based team but I guess it is good to have a challenge.
Tour of America has stages out of Ashville and Knoxville this year, so might be a good sponsor tie in.

It's only a matter of time before the entire peloton is drunk 
Welcome to the game! I'm interested to see what kind of team you plan to put together

Welcome to the game, hopefully we won't clash too much for Canadian talent in the offseason as it's only a secondary nationality focus for you but more eyes and hands in the NA space is never a bad thing!

Welcome! While I know the existing American teams may not be entirely thrilled by more competition, it definitely feels like an area that has been underrepresented for a little while so look forward to seeing how you get on. |

Very much agree on this, which makes me look forward to see how you are able to build your team as an American one. There should at least be some nice room to maneuver in as a team from the USA. Good luck! |

Not sure where this idea the US is under-represented comes from. Before new teams this year, there were more US teams than Italy, France or Germany. And all the US teams take their nationality focus pretty seriously. So don't let them fool you Curt, these are shark-infested waters. So good luck.
