I love soccer and would enjoy having a stadium here. I think it would raise awareness to the beautiful game. I was rather surprised when I heard that they were planning to build a stadium, especially now during these times. I am all for it. I think it would be good for the cities soccer community. I see no reason for soccer not be a big sport in the U.S. It is already growing. I think it is a very realistic goal to say in the near future soccer will be a main sport here in the U.S. I dont know if its wise to jump into this, but if we do it piece by piece I think that the dream will finaly come true.
