@krassenstein So the Iranian Regime is allowed to attack merchant vessels with impunity?
Look, I don't like what is going in over there either, but it happened. Iran can't be allowed to attack ships without provocation and they can't control international waters.
@bizness1979@IanDarke This is the main problem. The cost for kids to develop at a high level has become a for profit venture and onky the kids who families can afford it can continue development. The rest are priced out
@IanDarke While I understand you wanting the Govt involved, their role should be as a financier only. Our Govt is too polarizing and it's presence beyond that would drive folks away. But youth soccer in this country badly needs overhauled if it wants to build and KEEP talent
@IanDarke Yes. Youth sports programs in this country are "pay to play" and are pricing a lot of talented kids pit of sports. MLS, NWSL, NASL and US Soccer are the ones who need to spearhead efforts.
@ClayTravis Nah. Credit to Belgium. They were terrific. US had a solid World Cup. We won 3 games which has never happened. Found a new star in Malik Tillman. But losing does stink
@krassenstein@MassieNation19 You can't say you hate corruption and still support one of the 2 main political parties in this country. Trump should not have called FIFA, but if Bernie Sanders or Barack Obama would've called Infantino, you would've been slurping them
This World Cup is done and dusted for the US. If you wouldve told me before the tournament that we would get get to the round of 16, I would've taken it, but this sucks. Especially with the rest of the world violently railing against us.
