  1. I am really starting to get fired up for this game. Hopefully, we get a decent crowd and can make a little noise. Let's get it, Zips!

  2. Let's take a look at the cities, since you've assumed soccer is a "white suburban game."Soccer is popular in Akron city limits with several little kid leagues and an indoor facility in Firestone park. Akron's demographics: The racial makeup of the city was 62.2% White, 31.5% African American, 0.2% Native American, 2.1% Asian, 0.8% from other races, and 3.2% from two or more races. Ohio's biggest city, Columbus, has several high schools in city limits with soccer teams. Demographics: 61.5% White, 28.0% African American, 0.3% Native American, 4.1% Asian, 0.1% Pacific Islander, 2.9% from other races, and 3.3% from two or more races. Biggest city in the USA has a huge soccer following. NYC demographics: 44% white (33.3% non-Hispanic white), 25.5% black (23% non-Hispanic black), 0.7% Native American and 12.7% Asian. Can you even name a city where soccer isn't popular within city limits? Are you trying to say black city children don't play soccer??? Akron has Inner City Soccer Club with a good % of black children. https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=161309830562880 I'm sure the other cities have similar inner city clubs with young African-Americans playing, just like Akron. I lived in North Hill for 21 years, then Goodyear Heights for 6, and now Green for 3. You should turn off your vhs collection of the Lawrence Welk Show sometime and get out more.
