The story of Nashville FC epitomizes what the American dream is all about. Everyone one of us has had that late night conversation with a pal. “What if we started our own XYZ Company?” That is precisely what Chris Jones did.

It is time to breathe MLS fans. Learn some proper inhale and exhale exercises so you can begin to appreciate the run Montreal Impact had during the 2014-2015 CONCACAF Champions League tournament.

The American Soccer universe went into a frenzy yesterday over an article by longtime sports journalist, Frank DeFord headlined, “Americans Don’t Care About Major League Soccer” While Frank is certainly entitled to his opinion, personally I don’t see much validity to what he emphatically states.
