I'm hoping that the MLS continues to grow and gain in prestige. I doubt it will ever attain the mystique that the European leagues enjoy, but to have some good competitive soccer to watch in North America is nice. I could find myself following Toronto FC until Vancouver gets a club going.

Out of the major sports on TV in North America, which one is most at risk to losing audience to Soccer? I imagine it's baseball or basketball, since Nascar and Football are basically part of the American bloodstream.
