I used to know a few people that used to go to Cosmos games at Giant Stadium.....the were all foreign born.Yes, in the 70's and early 80's a lot of the Cosmo fanbase was foreign-born or first generation American. That was then. You are stuck on 1970s talking-points. Everything has changed since then (in large part because of the legions of American youngsters that got hooked to soccer thanks to teams like the Cosmos or the Rowdies) and have passed it on. I was one of those youngsters. People younger than me, got hooked when the US Team started qualifying for World Cup and because of USA '94. Those younger still got hooked after our incredible run in 2002 and other positive results by the men and women's teams alike. It's not the '70s anymore. |
