Yes, everything would've been just fine had we been able to beat Trinidad and Tobago, qualified for the World Cup along with other CONCACAF powerhouses (combined record of 2-1-7 in World Cup), and exited after the group stage.Everyone uses the "US Men Didn't Qualify for the World Cup so now Pay to Play is a bad thing."
If we had qualified and done well, would everyone then think that we have the right model in place?
