  1. Higher level (pro) soccer season schedules don't coincide with youth league soccer seasons (like American football and baseball), too few media outlets cover soccer (FSC and ESPN, occasionally), broadcast schedules aren't publicized and promoted like Amer football (talking heads all day long on multiple channels including network) and baseball (making a big deal about Opening Day). I would be many youth soccer players and their parents couldn't even tell you WHEN MLS soccer season runs, let alone have any concept of the international leagues, championship series, etc...
