So never 3 pro sports teams. This could get interesting with the
Pats, Sox and Celts next year. All 3 teams could conceivably get
better.

Not three of the big four anyways, MA has a good shot this year.

With the way the Bruins are going, you could almost see MLS
becoming
the
fourth major sport, and the Revolution were at least in the
championship
game this year. Man, I hate the Jacobs family.

Professional soccer will never be huge in the US. Didn't you see
that Simpsons episode?

Unless you're the mother of an eight-year-old.

I'm the father of an eight-year-old, and I don't inderstand what you
mean.



Other than soccer parents, nobody in the US cares about it.

Some MLS teams outdraw some MLB teams


Could be, but only the best outdrawing the worst. The Marlins had a game
this past year where only 500 showed up. A high school soccer game could
beat that!
