The only thing holding soccer’s popularity back in the US
Is the amount of money it spends on players. That’s it. It certainly has nothing to do with anything that happened in today’s game, but also feel free to make actual suggestions instead of the most boring and tired boomer one liners  Previous Message
I love the game, but it has flaws that affects its popularity. I’m in camp “fix it”. But if you prefer “we must protect this game at all cost” I respect that
But soccer has been a fringe sport in America for 60 years, and I see no reason to believe it won’t stay a fringe sport for 60 more without some revisions
Football has changed
Basketball has changed
Baseball has changed
Tennis has changed
Golf has changed
Hockey has changed
Time for soccer
