The lead in that article says US Soccer made a lot of money off the Copa America. That is not something that is guaranteed to continue to happen. How many coaches can we pay with $100 million? For how many years? Yeah, it's not enough


Making 100 million every couple of year, is easly a start to sustain a real infrastructure to develop players.

That Copa America was not a recurring event. That's not a revenue stream. That's a gift.

And I assure you that not all players who play for FC Dallas do so for free. The vast majority pay to play. So clearly FC Dallas does not make enough to even fund it's own youth operation, much less to pay transfer fees to fund other clubs.

Yeah, I'm the one who doesn't know what he is talking about.
