THREAD: Went to the @ATLUTD vs @InterMiamiCF match on Father's Day. @MLS has executed most things at or above global standards except one thing, but that one thing is the most important part. [1] The quality on the field doesn't match the quality of its presentation (stadium experience, technology, pre-match activities, merchandise, etc). It’s the equivalent of having Single A baseball players playing in Big League parks with a few Big Leaguers on the field. [2]

THREAD: Healthy things grow. (The bad news... unhealthy things like cancer often grow as well.)

When surveying US Soccer, it is clear that the current system does not produce natural environments for players, coaches, & clubs to prosper. 2. The DNA of the USSF system is fragmentation, segmentation, & isolation. Instead of US Soccer working collectively as a ‘sum of its parts,’ the USSF system works independently or in many cases works against other members. We’re left with silos & a convoluted mess.
