U.S.A Soccer Sucks

Wow, where to begin.

I agree, one of the reasons soccer is not liked and is not successful in the states is because here kids do not want to grow up and be soccer players. Kids want to play basketball, football, baseball and be the next big thing in those sports. Unlike in other countries where kids want to be the next Messi, Ronaldo, and Torres. Most people here in the states do not appreciate the game of soccer, the strategy and skill that goes into it. It also doesnt help when the National team is terrible, I love soccer but I would rather watch figure skating than watch the U.S. team play. Even when it comes to the MLS, the talent there is a major step down from leagues across the world.

But.... For the few U.S.A soccer fans that are out there, I hope after seeing the team versus Mexico, all of you will come back down to earth and realize the U.S is light years away from being able to really compete on the world stage. In typical U.S soccer fashion they get there one big win (Spain in the federations cup), that they always get every couple years and have fans get excited and say, here comes U.S soccer they are finally going to challenge the top teams in the world. May I remind you in the same federatons cup the U.S was destroyed by the likes of Italy and Brazil then by some miracle beat Spain, or shall I say spain beat themsleves by thinking they could just show up, not even lace up their cleats and win. Al though I will give the U.S defense credit, they played well that game. U.S soccer feeds off beating teams like Honduras and Costa Rica, and till this day have trouble with Mexico, who is not even the Mexico of old.

So U.S soccer fans, prepare yourself for a continued let down from your team,which you could avoid if you just saw U.S soccer for what it really is, which is not very good. They will quailfy for the world cup but again do nothing there.
