The MLS has reverted to classic FIFA rules.

They’ve managed to become profitable by building football-specific stadiums.

And every team in the league is centrally owned. America has a deep bench of professional talent.

Someday, we’ll win the World Cup.

“Someday, we’ll win the World Cup.”

I agree. I grew up playing baseball, and loving baseball - and I still do. I didn’t like soccer, admittedly in part because I felt that liberals loved it specifically because it wasn’t an American sport.

That said, I now really, really love soccer. It takes a ton of stamina, and a lot of talent to do what the best players do. I just got back from Brazil. It was an incredible experience and I would love to see the US someday win a World Cup.

But let’s keep playing baseball... There’s still nothing more difficult in sports IMHO than hitting major league pitching. Yeah, I’m very biased.
