I mean it is nice dominating the rest of the world in basically every sport, but beating them in a sport they treat like a religion that most of our country is just meh about.

You don't need them anymore. That's what I'm saying.

You just have to get up super early to catch all of them.

How much is a MLS team? I'm going to buy one of them and build a team that would laugh at the '85 Bears.

I agree. when I wanted to become a soccer fan after the Olympics I was trying to find mls games to watch and there were none on tv


Soccer needs to find a way to sell more ads during a game if they ever truly want to be successful in America.

$20 Million for the franchise rights, plus a soccer specific stadium.

There are probably more ads during a soccer match than during an NBA game.

There are almost as many ads around soccer stadiums as there are in Alex Box

Okay, no. And if there were, the cost per Ad is still largely different.

Find a way to have every part of the game sponsored.

"Bradley with Taco Bell assist"

"Altidore with a great Sprite header"
