Until our top athletes get involved with soccer, (And I am not saying that there aren't any) soccer in the US will always be a rich kids sport. Although US Pro soccer is growing, the pro soccer player must play outside the USA to make any real money. Until the day comes where an awesome pro-bound soccer kid has a decent chance of being drafted by a team playing in the USA with a multi-million dollar deal, it will always be a rich kids sport.
Although US pro soccer is growing, in reality, I can't see this happening in my lifetime. The truly talented athlete will always flock to the sport where the cash is, and they always will.
