[QUOTE="Xapi, post: 810943, member: 56815"] Thing is, in the US they play these sports that are secondary elsewhere in the world, only basketball is somewhat popular in Europe, American Football and Baseball are almost non existant elsewhere. So you come to a point where 19 of the 20 best players in the world of a sport play for the US. Then what is the point of international play? I'd argue that the US women soccer team is a lot more important to the US than their soccer league. because these women actually have someone to play against that matches them, and they win more often than not representing their country internationally.
