The Convert

More post-World Cup media love for soccer: my dad sent this column to me a few weeks ago, and I forgot to post it until now. The good thing is, Dave here is only latest member of a fairly large group of people I've come into contact with since the World Cup ended who seem to be willing to give the 21st century version of pro soccer a try. The trick now for MLS is not only to bring these new fans in, but to keep them coming back. Of course, tickets to a DC United game would be the easiest answer. Getting to see the class of the league in action would guarantee all these newcomers would become fans for life. Hey, it worked for me.
