[quote=Anonymous]As a soccer parent of an ECNL daughter, all the PP are mostly right. Men's US soccer sucks. I give women's US soccer a few more years before it sucks too. Culturally, soccer is not an American kind of game. We do not have the passion and the understanding for the game to compete the way these other countries can. It's like their national sport in a lot of countries. I mean, if you go to Costa Rica, it's God, family and soccer. Their school fields are pristine. If you go to rich town in NOVA you'd still find shitty fields. It's that kind of respect for the game that carries into the energy and competition of the sport we miss in the US. It's not about Costa Rica being brilliant at the game but more about the esteem they have for the sport which we never will. We play Super Bowls :)[/quote]
