Funny thing about soccer...I grew up in Broward County Florida. I don't know if you remember the NASL (North American Soccer League). We had a team in Ft. Lauderdale called the Strikers. They used to come to my school and talk to us. I thought it was a big deal at the time.
Yeah, I studied a lot about the sports industry when I was in college. It was a decent attempt at a soccer league, but the American public just wasn't ready (I don't know if they are now either). I don't know anyone famous off the top of my head from Ft. Lauderdale team though. Pele definitely stands out as the star in that league, though.
