One of the prevailing myths is that soccer has become a fervor in the United States. Contrary to this belief, the notion of "soccer fever" is described as a fallacy. While stadiums fill up due to affordable ticket prices, the sport is not dominating American culture as one might expect.
The rise of MLS can be traced to a strategic choice: instead of fostering a generation of American soccer players, the league opted for a more pragmatic approach. By inviting a diverse array of talent from around the world, MLS was able to enhance the playing quality while bypassing the challenge of nurturing a domestic soccer culture from scratch.
