So you want us to guess which one of our kids will be the next Lebron, then force him to only play soccer, just so the US could maybe go further in the World Cup?
Makes sense
Stupid response. Its not about forcing any kid to do anything or guessing who will be great. Its about those type athletes wanting to play soccer over football or basketball. Long way to go but soccer is in the conversation with kids now.
In Germany every pro soccer team is required to run an academy to develop soccer talent. These kids battle each other year round to become elite soccer players with hope of going pro one day, not to college. We don't have anything like that kind of a system here.
