We say that every work stoppage for every sport. NFL had a pretty nasty one and that did what? Not a damn thing. There is enough demand for a soccer game to take place in a professional setting in America.

Hockey should've been dead several times now.

I hope they don't strike, though.

MLS is 100 years behind the NFL.

There is more interest in the NFL draft than MLS. I love soccer and can't wait for the MLS to come to Georgia, but that's just the way it is.

It may not "kill" soccer in the US, but it would for sure kill the momentum that it has been gaining. Or maybe we could all be scabs and get our MLS on.

That's the well-established NFL. Soccer would be hurt big-time. Hockey had a strike and was hurt a lot. Soccer is on much shakier footing than hockey ever was. No way they recover.
