It's all about the money. The best athletes focus on the sports that they can make the most money playing in their own country. Soccer is nowhere close to competing with the following sports in the US:

Baseball
Basketball
Football
Hockey
Golf

Until the MLS can start paying the role players around $1 mil per year, the athletes will continue to focus on other sports besides soccer.
