        Average attendance in MLS this year: 21,000+. Hardly a “flop”. Given the competition from well entrenched, highly publicized competition, that’s very good.https://soccerstadiumdigest.com/2018-mls-attendance/ …

        It isn't, in markets where the local media can be bothered to cover it.

        They don't cover it because not enough people care.

        Not enough offense. 90% of the game is played in the middle of the field. Constant flopping. Too much crying to the ref. #DontGetMeStarted

        It’s not a flop- ask my fellow 50K fans who head to the Benz each Atlanta United game...as well the average MLS attendance is 20K+

        Is this the Globe, pushing the USA toward a more Euro-centric culture, the way Obama wanted us to be?

        Maybe 'cause they call it soccer while all the world names it football ! It really needs good endurance, good muscles and a good heart which needs no sodas and no sugars... :)

        ROFL Soccer is a dumb game. There are no statistics and it's just a bunch of whiny little sissies running around afraid to get hurt. I've never seen such malingering in any sport worse than soccer!

        Have you never seen a golf match? People in silly clothes chasing their balls around on the lawn.
