Who freaking cares. This is the USA!

Maybe if the USA cared, we’d be in the World Cup

At least in our area, more and more of the best athletes are choosing soccer. And yes, my kids have little interest in

Just curious, why don't your kids like the MLS? There is plenty of room for both

Not being in a MLS market is probably part of it (Columbus & DC are 3-4 hours away). Also, they're big into

yes. soccer has grown, but nearly as much as everyone has told us it has grown!

False!

I meant no one hear claimed soccer is most popular in USA.

One non-numerical way to gauge this is to go to ESPN

mobomanjoe

5/18/18 1:18pm

Here’s one way I gauge this. Utah has an NBA team and an MLS team.

You’re making the mistake of equating soccer with MLS. Of course soccer includes

I've been to NHL games before. If I was given free tickets I would go. My point

hadmonster

I've seen hockey. I'll choose indoor soccer if its just a sport comparison.

The USA is so insular in some ways. ESPN did a survey of the top 100 athletes

In the world? American football doesn't even crack the top 10

I could improve soccer overnight! Do away with offsides!

So your soccer resentfulness has to do with your aesthetic dissonance with it.
