@AllanSKF@mark64075@DDoback48 Canada completely revamped its youth soccer programs across the country to mirror the soccer culture in successful counties and actually train like those regions. They created a new standard across Canada, and created the Canadian Premier League which helps develop players.
@AllanSKF@mark64075@DDoback48 No, this has been in the last 6-7 years, not just recently. It began when Soccer Canada restructured its grassroots program, Alphonso Davies and the new generation, qualifying for the 2022 WC, Messi in North America, and how entertaining the last WC was to watch.
@Parodyjeffx What happened was he decided he can't pretend he's completely retarded and keep showing support for Israel. He also realizes that MAGA is disinfranchised and he has to connect with the larger Republican body.
@AllanSKF@mark64075@DDoback48 Sometimes it takes a game a long time to tap into the culture of a region. It's certainly happening in Canada. I've never seen so many kids wearing soccer kits of various teams and players. People are starting to watch, follow, and "get it". The rules are pretty simple/authentic.
@Lynvb26@DDoback48 I'm sure he meant ice hockey as there's no sport quite like it. It literally has every element anyone could want, along with otherworldly toughness and honor. A true warrior sport of speed, skill, creativity, physicality, and more parity than any other pro sports league.
