ESPN has MLS rights, so be prepared to learn the game of soccer


Screw that noise, I've tried watching MLS it's bad. Show English Premier League, La Liga, or Bundesliga games.

They do, however most people are still in bed when they do. FTR, the MLS is a much better league than it has been the last 5 years.

If the NFL has a lock out and people are still wanting to see football, I could see NBC broadcasting UFL games. That might give them some juice with Vs (soon to be rebranded as NBC Sports) to finally push to compete with ESPN. The other networks really need to step up and challenge ESPN. The only thing keeping ESPN afloat is their rights deals. Most of their original programming sucks and they are getting too much influence over college sports.

FOX would get back in on college football.


I'm not to sure about that. They're broadcasting baseball until late October. I always wondered why they don't broadcast a 11:00 or 2:30 game before the LCS and World Series. They might show primetime or late night west coast games during the MLB regular season when they have the 3:00 start time, but the fact they haven't done it yet makes me think they won't.

Does FOX even have rights to broadcast regular season games for NCAA?

After CFB, hockey is my favorite sport to watch live. I was very skeptical the first time I went but by the end of the 1st period, I was hooked.

Working class Americans who work in and near the stadiums and arenas would take the biggest hit.
