Best Answer

Gabe Paul brought soccer to the US when he let the Stoke City Stokers play at Cleveland Stadium in 1961. Gabe was President of The Cleveland Indians and had a vision that soccer would be big in the US. Unfortunately he lost a lot of money, but credit him with the beginning of Professional Soccer in the US.
