fc typically means football club, for example cfc = chelsea football club, Manchester United FC = Manchester United Football club. I don't think ESPN is necessarily saying that espnfc means ESPN Football Club, rather it's just alluding to soccer in general
ESPN Chicago came out first, followed by ESPN Boston.com. There is now ESPN Dallas and Los Angles as well
