I've been thinking about how the USSF spends an amount that is around 50% of what it would cost to manage an entire men's and women's pyramid AND produce TV content for both of them on just the DA, the Professional Leagues Committee, and NWSL... https://twitter.com/THEChrisKessell/status/1204831853024358401?s=19
There is no way we can sit here and say that this is the most efficient way to run the Federation. https://twitter.com/THEChrisKessell/status/1247576895904002049?s=19
The money that we already spend is on the verge of covering the costs of administering two full pyramids.

The money we give to support MLS via the USMNT and USWNT media and sponsorship rights deals would absolutely cover the rest of the cost.

This is frustrating.
Think about this $10M number per pyramid....

This doesnt even include a SINGLE cent spent on USSF staff currently that likely could be used to cover a bunch of these costs.

Or adding more staff would allow a bunch of work to be done better for both pyramids at less cost.
How lucrative would sponsorship opportunities be for the mens and womens game AND national teams all at once?

That's not even counting what being able to sell a youth soccer sponsorship for EVERY kid in the US.

Come on?
