    No kidding? Rush is the biggest? I didn’t know that. I know they had Ri Rush run by that Guy JD. I never saw them in mass though. Go figure. I love real soccer talk.

          The professionalization of youth soccer should be a major talking point but no stakeholders are able to take a step back and see it for what's it's worth and see that there are better options for the players (the whole point of youth soccer in case we all forgot here on TS). It would be nice if not MSM, but a local soccer rag (New England Soccer Journal) or the Globe or something at least had an article so that the average parent could have a different side of the story.

          If I recall there was pretty good coverage of the Framingham Youth Soccer: https://www.bostonglobe.com/magazine...7mM/story.html

          ... and the GPS situation has more victims and a lot more money at stake. You think some people would want to know about that.

          Sorry, I know, I know, we're supposed to be wasting bandwidth with lukewarm takes comparing GPS to the impeachment or whatever. You can go back to your snarky circle jerk now.

                        Wow? I didn’t realize how much this large club was worth. 75M.
                        Bradley’s get 15M at the sale and keep 8.5% equity stake (6M value).
                        A very very profitable business venture. Maybe I did pay too much.

It isn't a big deal at all that the largest youth soccer club in the country, one that happens to be based in Mass, is under criminal investigation and was raided by the FBI for widespread corruption and immigration fraud spanning a period of more than 10 years, and that same organization has also abused employees and broken numerous employment laws to the point that some are raising legit questions about human trafficking. No, that isn't concerning at all.
                          I'll tell you why. Simple raids, even with deportations, are not that interesting to a wider audience. The FBI and other alphabet agencies raid companies all the time. I know, I worked for one that was.

                          What does peek the interest of the news outlets are indictments. At this point it's basically a fishing expedition and the media knows it. Sure, they are in a good spot and the fish are biting, but the Feds don't indict unless/until they have you 100% nailed. If and when and that happens, it will all come to light and then you will see the Bradley bros front and center on the tube.
