I am untethered and my rage knows no bounds!
Messi gets a piece of that AppleTV money
Major League Soccer (MLS) agrees to 10-year, $2.5 billion TV deal with Apple; MLS games will no longer be on local TV
Ever since the Apple deal:
Just end this league so we can actually watch real Futbol like Premier or Bundesliga
- Its even more impossible to catch a game
- The coverage is garbage
- The hosts are unlikeable
- The app is clunky and meh AF
- The refs are still stupid
Absolutely abysmal bro. These idiots spending half a billion on Messi like anyone even knows who that is here or people are gonna actually watch now. They shoulda spent that money putting up tents and fields all over the country and get an actual daily news show.
Apples MLB coverage is garbage too.

The AppleTV deal is worldwide. They are counting on the world subscribing to watch him. Not just the US.
They have and the return has gone flat relative the TV rights fees.
Thats not gonna happen.
So nobody internationally is going to purchase to watch Messi play in your opinion?
A million people ain’t. MLS is a joke internationally even more than locally.
250 mil a year to broadcast this league seems like alot idk why. lol
but i wonder what apple will do to bring in subscribers and get to a breakeven point on this.
Messi will bring in numbers but idk if it will raise the global viewership enough
A lot of Messi fans worldwide and anyone who does is found $
I’ve been an MLS fan since day one and at one point even had redbulls season tickets. My friend gave me a family pass for the mls package and I haven’t watched one match all season. In my eyes this is a disaster. I’ll probably fire up the app for Messi’s first game or something but more than likely that’ll be on FOX anyway. Garber should be fired for steering the league in this direction.
