American Soccer Fans
The Lamar Hunt US Open Championship game is next Tuesday, my team the Seattle Sounders take on the Columbus Crew. It starts at 10 pm EST at Qwest Field. So far there have been over 19,000 tickets sold which is pretty good for an MLS game on a Tuesday.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

Due to the overwhelming response to this thread, I am giving myself a bump.

Sorry man, the MLS has given me 0 reason to watch...I've heard it's a better product these days, but the entire Southeast is without representation in this league.Originally Posted by killersheep

Re: American Soccer Fans
It has gotten a lot better and the viewership has increased by leaps and bounds. There are four teams that are actually profitable. As far as the south goes, Florida had two teams (Fusion and the Mutiny) but they both folded. St. Louis is on the short list to get an expansion team (AC St. Louis currently in the NASL) as well as Atlanta (Atlanta Silverbacks currently in the USL). North Carolina is actually in discussion for longer down the road.Sorry man, the MLS has given me 0 reason to watch...I've heard it's a better product these days, but the entire Southeast is without representation in this league.

Re: American Soccer Fans
Here's a map of the MLS and USL teams. As you can see there are a lot of USL D1 and D2 teams in your area. The Railhawks tend to do pretty well. As a matter of fact they are in the playoffs this week against Minnesota tonight and Saturday.

Montreal is in by 2011 or 2012, not sure, I'll sure then cheers even more for the Impact.

Re: American Soccer Fans
Well I'm hoping NC gets a team sooner rather than later, we've got good markets Charlotte, Raleigh/Durham, Greensboro/Winston-Salem/High Point and we're used to pretty decent college soccer what with having UNC, Wake, Duke, UNCG, etc.
Well hopefully it happens and when it does I'm jumping in and supporting them.
