>on the other side "MLS is the worst league in the world we need to disband it and send all of our players to europe then we'll win a world cup!"
why is being a soccer fan in this godforsaken country so much suffering?

it's
suffering
everywhere
USA - no explanation necessary
England - they always fall apart
Mexico - 7-0
Brazil - 7-1
Argentina - how many consecutive finals have they choked in
Spain - 100 years of heartbreak and tnow they're finally great
France - no explanation needed (but their epic collapse in 2010 was probably the saddest thing I've ever seen)
daily reminder
>Ashley Cole plays down MLS interest "not ready to relax on a beach just yet"
>MLS teams aggressively pursue him and he gets signed a year after this comment
NASL to division 1 status when?
you would succumb to jew wizardry if they cared enough
want NASL to become important: a team needs to sign a big player, win the US Open Cup, and petition to compete in (and perform well in) the CONCACAF Champions League
Give us division 1 and we'll do it.
>MLels teams can't even beat liga mx teams
MLS is dank, super competitive. It's filled with literal who's, but the matches are usually exciting.
most people who talk crap about the MLS are foreigners or euroboos. But the only thing that annoys me about the MLS fanbase is their belief that the MLS will be the best league in the world in the near future. It's gonna take alot, we might not even get there tbqh but I just enjoy the games.
Also, our commentators are a shit.
how long have you been following MLS? there was a long time where the league had a reputation for being hugely uncompetitive and boring since NO GOALS WERE BEING SCORED
I stopped watching as a result; went to my first Fire game in 5 years recently and the stadium actually had good attendance and the team actually allowed a bunch of meme goals lol
pretty impressed
the Seattle fans showed up during the USA/Ecuador game
great atmosphere
Because there are 3 other sports here that are vastly more popular.

Hockey isn't really more popular than soccer these days. Maybe if you live near the canadian border or something.

This is why I'll never take MLS seriously. When hey quit signing these washed up Europeans tell me. Maybe I will watch.
Also, quit continuing to add teams to LA and NY you faggots. America is more than those two cities.
So we need another Miami and San Francisco teams to cover everyone?
Don't forget the delusional MLS shills in the middle OP
>th-there's totally no evidence that players stagnate their careers by only playing in MLS, guys! I-I mean it's n-not like the average MLS player is already starting his pro career 3-4 years behind players in Yurop!
Gary will tell you all you need to know about how hockey is the fastest growing sport in the country
Cosmos need to get their damn stadium built to make this happen.
It's starting to change, though. The youth development arms race is starting. RSL is spending millions on a giant complex so they can produce the American Messi.
you all have two MLS teams already fuck off
this
I thought about including Hockey but at least every once in a while the country sort of cares about the World Cup, but never really cares that much about Hockey.
Hockey is only popular when it's the Olympics and even then it's for shitposting with Canadians and Scandinavians.
I don't think that semen slurping sport is for you.
the playoffs were awesome man I really enjoyed this season
I'm not a Cosmos fan or in NY, just think they're in the best position to do what said.
I don't think it will ever get big in the US but your players are getting better.
Who cares what those goofs say OP? They are just extreme ends of the opinion.
It's a 20 year old league and sticking around and growing. Just enjoy it for what it is.
not them
Want to follow the MLS but live in Miami so no local team to support. Anyone knows when the supposed Miami team is going to become a real thing?
Only issue I see with MLS is that the DPs signed have been washed up shit. Maybe if they became a league that develops players on its own to build their own stars rather than manufacture them like Govinco, Lampard, and Giovanni dos
Santos where here they are big names, but to the rest of the world they are used goods, then the league would actually be good as a feeder league to develop players for the USMNT rather than send them to Europe.
>I-I mean it's n-not like the average MLS player is already starting his pro career 3-4 years behind players in Yurop!
That's more the fault of the NCAA and college soccer, though. It's not on MLS.
yeah and MLS markets them as "young"
better than the mexicans so you are improving
we are go, if anyone cares
you forgot germany. when did germans ever suffer?
1994 and 1998.
euro 2000
holy fuck, that beard
>no local team
>not supporting your local media circus
i agree with you, it's fun to watch because it's such an offensive league. i dont care about the quality so much cause it's entertaining.
if MLS wasn't the American league no one would shit on or care about it aside from the people living here
