The good kids who will grow up to be really good players that 'did it since they've been able to walk' are still a little bit away. It's only been about 15-20 years since the sport has become more than just a secondary thing to do.
Well, infancy might be a stretch. More like teen years.
MLS will never be a very serious league because of the lack of homegrown talent. The best athletes in the US gravitate towards football, baseball and basketball. You can't support a league with imported talent. Until there is some change to that, MLS will be seen as a bottom-teir league where big names come to get one last big paycheck a la Beckham, Zlatan and now, apparently, Messi.
