you call your self american... and you bag on your nations sport? hahaha if you havent noticed no one in the world gives a shit about the nfl no one cares about baseball hardly anyone cares about the usa basketball team. soccer is the biggest sport in the world, why do you think every other country makes fun of the usa? because soccer is the WORLDS sport
@Headcheezonium I didnt say I hate the USA. I just dont care if we win or lose. The simple fact is all our best athletes play better more revenue generating sports. And dont give me that argument that well soccer is the worlds largest sport. The simple fact is soccer is and always will be a second class sport in this country. Nobody over the age of 10 cares. American Football, Baseball, Basketball, Hockey all have a bigger following here.
@putzbasterd MLS is currently the 3rd most popular league in the USA by both average attendance and TV ratings, Right behind NFL and MLB. And that's not even counting the other 50% of fans that support other leagues! It's more popular than you think.
@Headcheezonium The league’s gains at the gate were offset by marginal television ratings. On ESPN2, Nielsen ratings were flat through 14 games at a 0.2 cable rating, but viewership was down 1.6 percent from 255,000 viewers through the same period in 2009 to 251,000 viewers in 2010. That decline comes despite ESPN and the league’s decision to shift back to a Thursday night prime-time window
Straight from sports buisness journal with no NFL or MLB to offset
When soccer gets rid of these divas who flop to the ground and fake an injury while whining for a penalty just because they brush up against someone then it will have more respect.
@AAAJOSEOLEAAA IT can be both. Soccer is the prime term in 5 countries right now because different Football codes are more popular. Australia, New Zealand and South Africa call it soccer because Rugby Football is more popular. USA and Canada call it Soccer because Gridiron Football is more popular. The World Cup Final was played as Soccer City in Johannesburg and I saw no complaints. It's still the beautiful game, just different dialects. :-)
@putzbasterd Beat Spain 2-0, Scored the first Hat-trick in a World Cup, Beat Portugal 3-2, Still Undefeated against England in the World Cup, Came in first in Group C, Did better than England, France and Italy in the 2010 World Cup, Qualified continually since Italia '90, Shall I go on?
"they still don't respect us" - landon donovan .. yeah and we NEVER WILL ! USA soccer is a freaking joke ! USA should not even be allowed to have a futbol team like really ! It was funny how the americans really thought they would win the WCUP LOL. you didnt have a chance and never will ! dont compare urself with the greats like BRAZIL, ARGENTINA, HOLAND, ENGLAND, ITALY, FRANCE, SPAIN ECT ! US soccer will never be with the greats .. oh yea and u lost build a bridge and get over it !!!
Im Scottish yet i own a USA football/soccer jersey... not a Scotland one. Everyone just wait... give the MLS 20 years and it will be as big as the Barclays premiership.
my left nut,my right nut and both nuts know more about world football than you american clowns.get your info right.you guy's stick with your own american sports and please don't comment on anything that you have no clue what are you talking about.especially world football.get some knowledge tony clownheiser
They still rank countries like Serbia, Croatia and England. Bullshit we won group c over England, Serbia got kicked out in the first round and Croatia didn't even qualify
@DavidBIGdArruda Ghana aren't even a bad team. They're about as good as we are, and are severely underrated for some reason or another. I honestly think it's because people can't get past the fact that Africa have a solid team but whatever.
@unitedent09 I'm sorry, but Ghana didn't win either of the games they beat us in by 3,4, or 5 goals. It was one goal - It was close. I can accept Ghana are better, sure, but you need to accept that the USA aren't very far behind and EVERYONE needs to accept that both these teams are growing and could become real world powers in the next 50 years

@unitedent09 If Ghana were 10x Better than the USA. then they would have routed them like 8-1 Both teams should take this as a learning experience because nobody respects Ghana's team yet either I for one, do. I'm not one of those assholes who starts bashing on everyone. Im not like that. But Ghana has some raw talent and will someday break the top 10. The USA has done it before. But can Ghana do it? I sure hope so. Hope to see Ghana in WC 2014
@decorkels It's American its been played here as long as it's been played in most countries. I do play football too ok, I play baseball, football, soccer, hockey and basketball.
@KJT922010T Technically speaking. the USA has been playing soccer since the 1800's when European Immigrants came and brought this game over to the states. Our first game was in 1881 though we lost to Canada 1-0. Then we defeated Sweden 3-2 a few months after that.
years from now when jim rome is on his deathbed in some hospital somewhere and he tries to find something to watch on the television to keep him company , i hope all he finds to watch is soccer.
i think maybe if football (soccer) had more support they would do much better
