NBC just signed a 3 year contract worth $250 mil to televise Premier League games.


Cool. The Dodgers are going to get paid over $250 mil a year for their broadcast rights.

Let me know when the MLS gets a single game with over 5 million viewers.

Just saying that soccer is going to become even more visible than it already is in this country. That means there is a growing number of people who want to watch.

To be fair, comparing the MLS to MLB is like comparing the major leagues to AA baseball. I consider myself a soccer fan, but it's been a long time since I've watched an MLS game. Most of the viewership is towards the European leagues just like basketball fans in Lithuania are more likely to follow the NBA than the Lithuanian basketball league.
