The guys react to Team USA’s loss to Belgium and discuss why the United States still has a long way to go to compete with the top soccer nations in Europe. The guys debate the gap between MLS and the world’s elite leagues, whether USA soccer would look different if more of the country’s best athletes chose the sport, and why American interest tends to spike every four years during the World Cup before fading afterward.
