The Grand Unified Theory of US Soccer

Jan 18, 2013 No Comments by

Tweet MLS is the most important thing to have happened to US soccer in… well… ever. Sepp Blatter can blather all he wants about his disappointment in the league, but he clearly fails to understand the immense impact it is having. We are a country of 350 million people.

Tweet   “It’s little and broken. But still good. Yeah, still good.” — Stitch Yeah, we suck. We aren’t scoring. We aren’t winning. Definitely no tiger blood at the HDC right now. But it’s not yet time to panic. I just happened to run into Kyle Martino (@kylemartino) at the car wash last weekend. Great [...]
