I think when the current crop of kids are grown there will be a lot more intrest in Soccer in the U.S. because, as Spaw noted, they are all playing it now. When I was young (well you don't even have to go that far back)it wasn't played anywhere in this country as far as I know.

Frankly, I was absolutely shocked that the U. S. beat Mexico. A friend of mine, a Scot who is supercharged over Soccer predicted at a party last Saturday night that Mexico would beat the U. S. soundly!

In addition to the Mets and the Yankees games, there were a couple of other good series last week - The DBacks and the Red Socks (a Diamondback sweep), and the DBacks and the Yankees. :>)
