Are man city and man United not competing for the same fans? You are going to say but they play on the same league. Problem boils down to closed leagues tend to fail. Pro rel won't happen for a long time if it ever does and that's a shame. Mls and ussf might be hurting soccer in this country more than helping it.

Dumb. Different playing field dude. Different rules. Oklahoma is not Manchester.

Failure as a league isn't really an option at this point. MLS isn't an upstart anymore it's an established product and probably a top 10-15 league in the world. The question is whether it will ever make the big jump. The answer is probably not.

Why? America has shown that it can grow leagues just fine. We have a few pretty big ones. Why does America need a pro/rel system for the sport to grow? Just because the rest of the world does it? We're better than they are, everybody knows that.
