Pay to play. Travel over training. An incentive to coddle not coach.
Youth soccer is broken in America, the USMNT keeps proving it true.

And now John Strong is giving the old Easter and Christmas homily about this not having to be the only soccer you watch for the next four years 😂 #USMNT📷
Would you compare Anthony Edwards' getting a suspension overturned in a playoff game to Kareem getting a suspension overturned for Game 7 of the Finals? Let's operate with a little nuance please. #USMNT
There is precedent in World Cup history for a player’s suspension getting overturned.
64 years ago, Brazil's Garrincha was to be suspended for the final, but host nation Chile led a successful petition to allow him to play.
Regardless of what you think should have happened with the Balogun suspension, if you are Rudi Garcia and Belgium, you can not let on that a player on the other team impacts your preparation. #USMNT
Underrated part of the #USMNT HBO documentary is Joe Biden's phone call to the team ahead of the 2022 World Cup. Not because it was anything special, but because it wasn't a sitting U.S. President trying to take credit for anything related to this team.
Because it's not enough to just beat the French 22-year-old reincarnation of Wilt Chamberlain, the Knicks also have to beat the Steve Bartman-ass energy the President of the United States, who happens to be Donald Trump, is bringing to Game 3.
THE NWSL IS COMING TO COLUMBUS ‼️
They will become the NWSL’s 18th team, joining the league in 2028. The club will play home matches at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field — a 21,700-seat in the heart of Downtown Columbus.
The Columbus NWSL team will be owned by the Haslam family and operated by Haslam Sports Group — the organization behind the Columbus Crew (MLS), Cleveland Browns (NFL), and Milwaukee Bucks (NBA).
We know Giannis didn't sign up to play for the NBA equivalent of the Cleveland Browns, and if that's the direction things are going, fans should thank him and turn their ire toward Edens and Haslam.
Bucks fans fought a long time not to have an owner like later-stage Herb Kohl, only for Jimmy Haslem to come in 11 years later. Look at the departures in the organization since Haslam bought Lasry's stake. Peter Feigin being replaced by a Haslam Group guy tells you the direction.
