Why doesn't St Louis have a soccer team?
No stadium is basically the main reason, that and MLS prefers more thriving metro areas more than likely. The hope was that Kroenke would build a soccer-specific stadium like the one in KC, but nothing has happened. St. Louis has a great soccer tradition, SLU has one of the better historical soccer programs and there's a huge Bosnian population here that loves soccer.
Busch held a friendly between Argentina/Bosnia as well as Manchester City/Chelsea. The Dome had Bosnia/Ivory Coast and Real Madrid/Inter Milan, so they are set up for some big-time soccer if someone builds a stadium. As it is they do a great job with the friendlies.
