Unfortunately, Americans do not put much importance or money behind soccer; it just isn't a big money maker like basketball, football, hockey, or baseball. Perhaps if the U.S. had a better soccer team, more people would root for them.

Right On! They have had since the mid 70's to develope, cultivate, promote and reape the benefits of this so-called sport. It ain't happened yet and it never will. Too slow and boring. Time to shoot the crippled horse.

Now if you'll excuse me, got to get back to the 3rd period of the Stanley Cup finals.

Maybe if soccer allowed unlimited substitutions and checking they could spruce up the game a bit....
