[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you keep feeding the pay to play system because you fear your kid will miss out, the system will never change.
A $4.5 billion industry that produces mediocre players.

It is a ridiculous notion to think this can be fixed from the bottom up. It's like saying why isn't my car fast, I put the best gas into it. The reason your car isn't fast is because it was not designed to be fast. Our car (the USSF and our youth soccer system) is not designed to developt the best soccer players from our massive general population. It is a business that develops the best players from those who are willing to pay the price. In our society, it takes money to do this. It will take much more (Yuuge) money to develop a training system that caters to the general population. Until that source of money materializes, nothing will change.[/quote]

Yep think how much it would cost to do what Iceland did in the USA. [/quote]

Give me a break.  Excuses, excuses.  We have crooks in charge getting rich off of parents.  WE put together the youth residency program, the DA system, etc.  We use that $ for the wrong things.  The US crooks don't want it to change.  Look how they attack anyone attempting to mess with status quo or do anything outside of THEIR normal established pathway.  I hope the Europeans succeed and overtake the market by offering 'intelligence' vs raw athleticism.  But---watch how they come out and start attacking them for pissing on their turf.  Their turf that they've done NOTHING WITH for men since kids seriously started playing here 4-5 decades ago.[/quote]
