I think it's great for people in the States to see arguably the top level of football in the world right here in their own country.
For those that " LOL " at the thread, get over yourself. No American is saying the MLS is on the same level or near the EPL and if they do, ignore their ignorance.
If you sincerely have a problem with this " tournament " (that is just a
PR-practice for you) knowing it will continue to develop popularity around the world for a game you claim to love - you aren't a true football fan. To claim otherwise is a blatant lie.
*edit*
April Fool's or not. (Which it's April 2nd, by the way)
