That's why I was a big Bigsoccer poster for many years, but simply quit and just rant here now and then.

It's pointless, there are so many clueless people and so many ignorant newbies that it's impossible to ever have decent discussion on American soccer

It's just extremely extremely obvious to me that the new type of EPL-centric American fanbase is a cancer to the growth in the sport here, and tumor-masters like Men In Blazers are hurting it more. And it's also extremely obvious that the most knowledgeable people with the most balanced point of view about soccer in this country follow MLS.

"Why, MLS sucks lol" - exactly, it takes a special type of person to follow MLS despite it not being the best, and it says a whole lot about that whole group of people.

It's like talking basketball with people who are LeBron and Kobe stans, talking tennis with people who are Federer and Nadal stans. They know nothing else, based their opinion over one or two things they know.

And it's pointless to ever start a website or a blog or anything these days, everyone and their mother has one. Everyone has an opinion on r/MLS, on Bigsoccer, on twitter.

The only way to actually drill some sense into people is with the power and influence and come from legit journo jobs (like MLSSoccer, SI, ESPN) and guess what, those are the most p*ssy of all. I wouldn't blame them either, one misstep and you're gone, and don't worry there are 500 "bloggers" out there who'd be happy to replace you.

BREH this is what I've been saying.

Thank you. People be like "oh, you never know who may be reading your work" man go on with that :camby: everybody and their mom has at least THREE blogs :camby:

The only way you can be league from blogging is applying for internships and when they ask you for writing samples, use that. Then if you suck enough dikk they may keep you on

:ehh:

The football player who is D1 but not top tier. That's quite a pickle. Might have to charge that one to the game. And I say that, without any knowledge of what a Power 5 Conference is.
