[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ Not pp.

But, Dude,  we are set up to fail.  We need to scrap everything.  This non-working 40 year + system needs to be flushed down the toilet.

I don’t give a shit about those stupid rules.  They are not in American kids’ best interests.

I agree with the poster you responded to.

Again, I am as damn sick of the same crap I’ve been hearing for the 30-years I’ve been involved in the sport...we CAN’T and “we are just around the corner”.

We suck because the system sucks and the people running the system suck.

But—yea let’s keep paying the crooks and the leeches.[/quote]

Come on, this is over the top.  Sure missing the World Cup is an epic failure, but it happens.  Mexico was lucky not to miss in 2014 - USMNT scored goals against Panama they had no need to score to keep Mexico in a Play In situation.

USMNT qualified for 7 straight World Cups from 1990 on after having been out for what - 40 - 50 years?  They then made it out of the Group stage 4 of those 7 times.  There are actually not that many other countries that have had even that level of World Cup success in the last 25 odd years.

Outside International, we now have a thriving Professional Soccer League in the US - did not even exist in 1990.

There are definitely problems and still massive room for improvement but 40 years ago Soccer was really not even a sport in the area of the country where I grew up.  Part of the problem is there just are not enough good Coaches and knowledgeable Parents.  And changing that takes time - if my son and his teammates have soccer playing kids - well it will be different.
