the two most visible factors in this sport's domestic growth


There is exactly one visible factor right now that is pushing the sport of soccer in the US and it's not MLS. It's the one Jurgen is in charge of.

I'm going to disagree with you. I'm in minority, but I think when we look back at US soccer in 50 years I think the the USMNT and the MLS will have similar growth patterns (in terms of caliber of players and fans) and the MLS will be given much more credit than it is now. I just don't see how having an exciting national league could do anything, but support the growth of the USMNT, that is when we get the youth development shite down.
