I still claim that it's too soon to tell. I don't care for it, but it has its following. I notice that the pro-soccer crowd seems notably younger than its detractors.

It's often noted that immigrants bring their passion for soccer to this country. It will be interesting to see whether their children gravitate toward the NBA/NFL/MLB colossus or toward the MLS.

I'd bet the former, though. Like the metric system, Americans seem proud of their rejection of soccer.
