The Real Reason For U.S Soccer's Downfall
The "MLS or Europe" question has dogged Landon Donovan since he inexplicably left the German Bundesliga for the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer a year ago.
He didn't leave the German powerhouse, Bayer Leverkusen, because he was playing poorly or didn't fit with the manager's plans. He did allude to the fact that he wanted to be back in California with his family.
This is why Landon came back home to Southern California.
Can you blame him now? Regardless of possible career advancement, would you toil in rainy Germany playing soccer in the middle of winter against a bunch of Krauts or spend time strolling through the malls of SoCal with your hot girlfriend?
Seriously, let's be honest and see things through Landon's eyes. He's a genius. Now, is soccer really that important? Maybe not.
Good job, Landon. You're the Man of the Match.
