    Cosmos are currently $3000 for the year plus travel. Met oval and gottschee are almost exactly the same cost. On boys side around here only NYCFC and red bulls are free.

      What a shame what has happened to sports in general, especially on LI.
      Not one free club or team around anymore!

        I'm not sure what you think clubs are supposed to do? It's very costly to run teams. MLS clubs aren't too happy about what they have to spend. They are forced to but at least have a shot of getting a homegrown now and then to make a few $ off of. They also run good RDS programs and camps and clinics to help cover costs. It's all a business and it seems always a supply of customers willing to pay.

            The crime is all these so pay to play superstars being led to believe they are "elite" soccer players when they are really just elite customers with elite bank accounts.

              And, yet, it's all voluntary.

              Same with buying the latest iPhone, 4K TV, buying the EX vs the DX.

              People that have disposable income are free to spend it how they wish.

                ouch..

                If DA is #1 league, (Non MLS) team cost should be cheaper.

                  "One born every minute .... " a saying as old as time .... this concept is not new and if anyone is will to pay for the snake oil, then be prepared to lose your money and ingest whatever low-cost garbage is actually bottled by the salesman! If people were not so vain, subjective about their own children's abilities, and jealous and trivial, then these practices would not be so lucrative.

                    You have a tremendous amount of concern for the condition of my wallet. It's heartwarming.

                    On a go-forward basis, what is the recommended procedure for ensuring all future spending is met with your approval? This is very important, as evidenced by the ire represented in the tone of your posts.

                    Will you be commenting on all future purchases I make, or am considering to make?

                      different guy here but, he was not attacking you personally, he is simply making a sociological statement....if people are willing to pay...why criticize someone else looking to make money?...."buyer beware" is another old saying.

                          Again, allknowingoverseer of value and how to determine it, to be ripped off, one must assign a cost and a benefit for such an item.

                          So, what formula have you used to make a determination of being "ripped off"? Do you apply that to all physical activities, or activities in general? Are you on talking-babysitting.com and lambasting people for the costs spent? Does the same apply for manufactured, hard goods as well?

                          This stuff is important. You have a lot to say, and personally I think I could use your guidance in several expenses, now and in the future.

                          You have a link or a site where this nugget of information is shared?

                            But, based on what? Just a random sociological statement, or is there some formula to be applied when one speaks of what to be aware of?

                              Just the fist one of dozens and dozens that come up on online. Google is your friend. Or you could just look around and see the situation for yourself.
