NYC (but PGH will forever be home)
Yep.

With this MLS expansion, soccer is about to be big bidness in the states

:usure:

With respect to the MLS:

"20 matches on ESPN dropped a troubling 29% in viewership to 220,000 per game during the regular season off the league's best year on Bristol airwaves last season. Audiences also fell 8% in games on NBCSN to 112,000. This puts MLS beneath other second tier properties like the WNBA, IndyCar, and boxing."


Yea breh, I think us Americans get our fill of soccer once every four years.. I would actually suspect WC ratings to be higher:patrice:

This thread ain't even accurate. The ratings were tied in NYC. Plus it had 8 million total viewers over two networks the finals have averaged 16 million on one

Now who else wanna fukk with Hollywood Court?
Soccer players are in better shape than both those guys

Footballers are just musclemen. That shyt ain't "fit"


:ld: Soccer players may have more stamina, but in regards to measurable athletics they aren't in the same ballpark as NFL/NBA players.

Ie. it would be a lot easier for someone like Russel Westbrook to increase his stamina than it would be for Ronaldo to match :youngsabo:'s speed, strength or vertical.
