The US could develop all the soccer players they wanted, but there are more diverse and exciting paths for those athletes to take.
Why doesn't the NFL have ratings in Europe like it does in the US? BECAUSE PEOPLE AREN'T INTERESTED. They've seen it; they just don't enjoy it. It bores them the same way soccer bores you, except that they have a world of people to back them up, and you have only fellow Americans.
