There has been a long standing problem with USA soccer going with and catering to suburban gringos at the expense of the new immigrant communities. MLS will and is changing that, the quest for the dollar is going to give more opportunities to players who can bring chunks of their immigrant communities to the stadium. All you have to do is go to a DC United match to see it. We still have a Mexican "problem" though. They consider their league to be higher quality than MLS so the Galaxy is probably gonna lose the recent immigrants to south of the border clubs. It is, however, going in the right direction... lets have a bloody good cry!

(ow talk about bringing a tear to your eye)
