https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=51122&perpage=15&pagenumber=1 I know, I know. Don't feed the trolls. They're swarming me here, though. Help me out. I can't fight them off forever without the brilliance that abounds from the other MLSers in these forums!
Um, I don't see any trolls in there. Most of those posters were being quite patient (maybe a wee bit too patient) with the conversation, offering reasoned points of view, and constructively adding to the discussion. Dude, we got our rear-ends fed to us in the CONCACAF cup, plain and simple. Our MNT can and has competed favorably throughout the hemisphere. I'd put our best 11 up against anyone else's on the planet (not that we'd win, mind you, but on any given Saturday...). That's our MNT, not our club league. If you would've asked me in March, I might have been right there with you. After the CONCACAF, though, I'm convinced that our domestic league has a bit of growing to do. Chill.
I'll two nothing the trolls.. USA 2 - Mexico 0 @ the world cup. This century and a bit.. USA 10 goals Mexico 1 goal.
I guess I missed where they were being trolls. Seems to me like they were speaking the truth. MLS has a ways to go before its on the same level as the leagues in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico, and even Columbia.
Anyone who doesn't bow down to the inevitability of US soccer dominance is a troll. The rest of the world should just stop playing. Hell, they already have basketball. What do they need soccer for?
