I can't believe nobody commented on the jackholes that said soccer isn't tv friendly. Not only is it very tv friendly, it's life friendly. Start, play 45 minutes, halftime, commercials, start 2nd half, play 45 minutes. End game. I know I only have to set aside 2 hours to watch the game. Really not that much. Instead you have 5 hour college football games with lots of commercials and lots of downtime between plays. I know you hard asses want to pretend soccer isn't rising. But when Goodell ruins your little throw ball league, what are you going to watch?

That is not TV network friendly. The networks want regular breaks in play, like acts in a sitcom.
Visually, soccer is not very well suited to TV either. But then neither is baseball.

No you don't.
FTR, I don't like soccer that much, but am certainly not anti soccer. As boring as it is to watch (to me), I can definitely get into US Soccer if we're in the WC or something like that. I view it similar to Olympic sports for me...shite I normally wouldn't like but can get into every now and then (and certainly when it's a U.S. team).
