When will the USA participate in the greatest game on earth?
There present involvement is good enough. Do we really want the USA to become more involved once that happens the game will have to be changed to make it TV friendly (a commercial at every stopage and the like). Take a look at what TV has done to Ice Hockey a fast 60 minutes all action game now reduced to a series of stop start sessions that can take 3 hours. Next they will want World Cup matches to kick off for prime time TV with no thought to those who are going to the games or taking part. Look at the Olympics Athens marathon timed for American TV ran at the hottest time of the day. Let them carry on as they are The Beckham idea has been tried before look who has played in the USA over the years and it has still not got then going.
