Next weekend is the home opener for the New England Revolution - a participant in the most invisible US professional sport. It amazes me that every town is scrambling to build more and more soccer fields for kids to play on (usually right over land fills - that ought to work out well), yet professional soccer is basically ignored. It's a shame, because it's a fun spectator sport, hooligans aside. Maybe people don't like to watch it because there aren't enough TV time outs, or because the whoring advertising industry hasn't embraced and ruined it completely yet.
Whatever. I'm confident that if America ever really DOES cozy up to the sport, it will be dragged down in the name of the almighty dollar anyway.
In the mean time... GO REV'S !!!
