And I would say closer to never than 40 years.
I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

What? The MLS is exactly like the MLB, NFL, NBA. Most cities or states do have their own team. If you can feel an intimate connection to your local MLB, NFL or NBA team why can't you your local MLS team? |
The same reason why when you hear of someone dying in a train acident, you don't care. But when an actor, like say Lenard Nimoy died. You get depressed. I watched the man since I was 6. I only knew the train acident victum for 2 mins. Since the sport isn't big. You know nothing, you have no attachment. If I watched the world cup. I wouldn't care who won. I don't know who anyone is.

What else should you use, it's the official organization for the sport. The ranking is based on results in international games and everyone can recalculate it himself if he wants to. What do you base your ranking on, coinflip?
I'd say it is becoming bigger tbh. A lot more exposure now than it did 10-20 years before
| Signalstar said: USA is all about capitalism and economics. Soccer is not sufficiently monetized yet. It lacks the backing of huge constant sponsors because you gave two 45 minutes halves of play that are commercial free. So tv networks are less inclined to schedule soccer with so little time to sell advertisements. Most soccer leagues around the world are not profitable unlike the NBA and NFL. |
Please what? European football is very much oriented on profits. The leagues are producing a lot of money and the clubs are pretty important companies by now. In the US soccer is only not economical successful, because it is not popular. Similar here in europe with Baseball, you have no economical stable league.

Soccer teams are bound to cities, only for international events there is a national team that consist of th best players in the usual leagues. Also rivalry is usual for teams and their fans.

What's wrong with Soccer? What's your problem with the sport of Soccer? I played Soccer as a kid. Soccer was a great deal of fun, in camp, after school, tons of soccer. Probably played more Soccer when I was younger, than I did any other sport. Kind of strange really, when you think about it. My interest in soccer didn't really carry over into adulthood. |
It's called football. Everywhere in the word except the US.
