I've lived in 7 different major US cities throughout my life and have visited 48 states at one point or another on business. I meet thousands of different people a year and usually break the ice with small talk about sports. Out of all the people I've met in this country over the years, literally one individual gave two shits about soccer in any capacity. He claimed to be an Arsenal fan. I don't know who these American proxies are that are trying to shill the sport on this board, but it's egregiously disingenuous. If these posters are for real, at the very least, they are non-existent in the business sector (i.e. people who actually have and spend money).

The fact is, soccer has and will always remain an activity for children in this country, a reason for mothers to get out of the house and gossip with each other while the kids play a non-contact game chasing a ball around. Youth soccer season runs almost year round, so it has that advantage over other youth sports. Once kids are old enough, though, they almost without exception drop it to focus more intently on our adult sports. This post isn't meant to trigger soccer fans into replying to it, whether you're really from America, or some international fan reading this. It's just the way it is here. The more you know.

City people are typically more hipster so I guess you're right. I don't think many suburbanites are euroboo hipsters who pretend to undrstand soccer/football.

This is false. Most of ATL utd. Fans are families from the burbs. There are no less than 2 dozen youth leagues is the metro area and tickets + parking + food is cheap enough for a family outing

Are you guys ever gonna go all English and let quality foreign players flood your league?

>>78272892
Eh theyre better than the new york one that was floating around

>>78273666
Idk about quality, but a lot of CONCACAF national team players play in MLS. Somebody pointed out in the Costa Rica thread that half of their guys were in MLS so we couldn't use "lol shitty MLS players" as an excuse for losing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tac97VibMDA

WOW

>>78273682
But aren't you only allowed 3 foreign players per team or something?

>>78273697
Every team gets 8 international roster slots, but they can trade the slots to other teams. The 3-player rule you're thinking about is the "Designated Player Rule", 3 players who are exempt from the salary cap, this is how Los Angeles were able to give Beckham $50 million per year in a league where the average salary isn't even $1 million.

I meant in general, and I'm including watching on tv or following on the internet. Forget suburban, in fact, after I wrote that I remembered that a lot of hipsters originate in suburbs and then move to cities when they graduate high school. Forget young people in the suburbs. Older people in the suburbs and rural areas do not watch MLS as much as city folk. As far as Atlanta Utd is concerned, that's cool to hear. I did read somewhere that Mercedes arena has really affordable food. Atlanta seems pretty nice to be honest.

They don't really care though. It's a meme form of elitism and virtue signaling.

As an example, there's a bar near my college stadium that makes a big deal out of "not caring" about sports. They have no TVs and they literally tell people on game days "we don't care about sports here". Seems a bit odd to be located on campus and go out of your way to take a stance against sports but whatever, it's their bar.

Now, as soon as the local MLS team announced they would be playing games at this college football stadium this bar went full on scarf-wearing flag-waving retard about how they are the game day destination, game day specials etc.

Just one example of course, but a telling microcosm of why soccer """fans""" in this country get such a bad rap. It's all very try-hard and disengenuous.

They have a pretty nice atmosphere, to be honest.

Ok, I'm and Yank and you sound fucking retarded. Drafts are pointless in the academy era, and pro/rel could work if the money was right. Right now, garber charges 150million for an expansion fee, and with tv revenue, no stadium rent, and sound financial planning, a team can recoup that money in 5 to 10 years, which, when you consider that a good team and good league could exist for 100+ years, is a good investment.

Until the expansion fee is dropped, no owner wants to take a $150mill pro/rel gamble.

>>78275775

this is halfway true about my city is so weird xD cities like portland and seattle. but for some reason, even back in the 70s they were very hyped about the sport, and the liberal hipsters kind of present an easy target to focus on, when the majority of people have already been that way. but you will get the hatred on the 'fight and win' and northwest hippie stereotypes who make soccer some kind of statement.

what you describe sounds a bit misguided, they are looking for easy money but also making some political statement, im guessing you're talking about atlanta. seeing that the stadium is georgia tech i'm sure its easy to disassociate yourself from any sports coming from that university
