    All I'm saying is that its popularity is growing quickly ad probably faster that any other sport. Obviously it has the most room to grow and with the rapidly growing hispanic population we can only expect that growth to continue. I've read multiple article saying it will be rivaling other sports in the near future if it isn't already. I don't expect it to challenge for supremacy any time soon, but if you look at the progress it has made in just the past ten years it is almost unbelievable.

    I'm not saying that soccer has not grown at all, I'm saying that based off what I can gather there aren't many people that I know that give a **** about it. I realize it has grown but to say that it is or will be more popular in the U.S. than the four major sports I mentioned is crazy.

    I played soccer when I was younger all i got out of it was destroyed shins, calves, and nuts. People just swing their legs like idiots in a group trying to kick the ball, soccer sucks.

    How can a sport "nobody cares about" grow?

    Backtracking, huh?

    Not many people I know care either, but that doesn't mean it isn't popular. I also won't at all be surprised to see it in the top 4 in the next 10 years. Not saying it will be, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is.

    How can a sport leap the NFL like he said it could do when he just said it may not even get into the top four in the next ten years? Just because a sport has grown doesn't mean it's contending to be a major sport in this country. No backtracking here, like it or not it is what it is.

    well believe what you want but to most people in this country kickball won't be as popular as the NFL, college, NBA or mixed martial arts anytime soon.

    Well it only cost 100 million to start a mls franchise, thats chump change compared to say, the Dallas Cowboys or Dodgers. That could explain how its "growing".
