On the national level yes. At my local level no. I'm not saying this situation proves anything about soccer, but specifically with the baseball issue in my town it is as much losing guys to football(choosing to workout in the spring) and especially lacrosse. Our town would have a pretty strong baseball team had we not lost the kids at age 12 that made a decision between lacrosse and baseball.
Again, maybe the two aren't comparable but that's part of the experience I am drawing from.
