http://www.forbes.com/sites/alexmorrell/2013/11/08/after-flirting-with-failure-major-league-soccer-popularity-now-surging/ -----link. this article is an interesting read and it throws alot of stats at you. I want people 2 read this article and see what people think. It'll never catch the other big sports in america,but it's gaining popularity and the article mentions that the MLS has actually expanded and grown some. It also mentions that attendance is on the rise. please respond,after you read the article. I'm really interested 2 know what people think about this,as I'm a sports fan.


Never catch up? It's only a matter of time till it surpasses the NHL, NBA and MLB. I don't doubt either that it'll get to be as popular as the NFL in 40 to 50 years from now.

Not a chance of that ever happening.  People have been saying this for at least 30 years and it hasn't even made a dent.  It's not going to magically happen in the next 40 or 50 years.

MLS is basically the minor leagues when it comes to soccer worldwide.  That just won't fly on a large scale in the US.
