With all three host countries out of the tournament and no World Cup games today, some of us are emerging from a soccer stupor and checking in with our NSL, NWSL, Liga MX, MLS, CPL, and USL sides, which has got me wondering: what team or competition do Lemmings follow from the host countries? And, for those of you located in a host country, has following this World Cup encouraged you to support your local soccer team?
none. professional sports are like corps for me now. I used to say my favorite thing to watch is little league games but like wierd holding companies have bought out a lot of the local companies that put those on. Colleges are getting just as bad as pro sports. Maybe not quite but the money is just corrupting. At this point high school is kinda the best point. So for me high school and college level sports is the only ones I would care to watch. Not sure how much longer before they get wierd.
I lost a lot of interest when they put my Golden Bears into the ACC, but I remember watching Alex Morgan play for us fondly. Maybe your local USL2/USLW team is more independent of corporate interests? There isn’t much money in it.
yeah im not much of a sports guy to begin with but I had a roomate in college who got me to be a local team type of fan but again its so weird now I just went back to my nature and as I said I give high school and college a bit of watch.
