This assumes the best NFL players are all measurables which completely misses the point and gets to a major issue with the defense of the failures of American soccer.
Fact - if American soccer had better athletes playing soccer throughout their youth, it would be better
Fact - the structure of youth sports prices athletes out of sports, inclusive of soccer
Fact - families with limited economic means prioritize sports with maximum economic potential in America - football, basketball, baseball
Fact - until America makes soccer more accessible and focuses on skill development for better athletes, it won't compete
@DarrenJMeenan@StevenACohen2 took lifelong met fans like me and stole the joy and connection. My 7 year old asked me if he had to be a Mets fan because I'm a fan. They took his favorite players away and aren't worth watching. I told him no, he can pick a new team.
@CookedByGrimace It is the fan base's - in other words the paying customers of the product - way of telling the clueless owner @StevenACohen2 that they want the front office cleaned out because he refuses to listen when they tell him straight up. Next needs to be a boycott. Empty stands.
