Just took a few seconds to read comments from the “Supporters
Shield is dead thread”. The reality is this weekend lost out to the
EPL close-out, it was really exciting. I’d still have gone to a
Rapids game had they been at home, but they weren’t. However, I
would have watched a 30 minute MLS highlight show on Sunday or
Monday night, and that would have kept me cued in to the plot-lines
of MLS, and kept me excited for the upcoming Rapids schedule. My
point is, the MLS should push hard for a show even if it is not a
money maker. I could fit a 30 minute show in this weekend, but
another 2 hour game that may or may not be good is not always
possible.

You’re all over the road today tom. You’re one of my favorite
comment-ors on here. Long weekend?

Long mother’s day gardening- payback for morning watching the EPL!

MLS could produce a 30 minute MLS Review show and pay to air it
themselves on one of the lesser networks and put it online. Or, if
they wanted to be really cheap, they could not pay to air it on TV
and make it available as a “Free Preview” each week on MLS Live.
Bring eyeballs to MLS Live for free, then make them pay if they
want the out-of-market game coverage. Or put it up on the otherwise
useless MLS Youtube Kick channel. Either way, not having a
highlight show when any soccer fan in the country could put one
together on a laptop is yet another sign that, while they have made
great progress on the field in terms of attendance and venues, MLS
is hopeless when it comes to TV.

The MLS website is good, but a highlight show cued up on my DVR
would be better. By the way, my previous comment wasn’t that I
watched the Premier League finally, but that I watched the finalle-
the season enders. But, the Premier Highlights Show on Fox Soccer
is an example of what I’d like to see for MLS.

NBC Sports need a weekley MLS highlight show. I’ve only seen one of
these goals. Usually I only watch Colorado’s game, this weekend I
watched English league finally. I bet a highlight show would get
bigger ratings than most games, I would watch or record it every
week.

Ditto Tom, I would record and watch every week……….but Sunday
AM is for clicking on mlssoccer.com/video. I can click on the Full
Highlights without seeing the scores of the games I didn’t watch (
takes a little skille ). They do a GREAT job of recaping the games.

You can watch Premier League highlights on ESPN, Charles.

I am more interested in the Champions League finals coming up,
where neither finalist could even win their league, but one will be
crowned the champions of Europe.

And yet MLS has no qualms about putting non-champions into the
CONCACAF Champions League. Toronto is currently 0fer and they were
one game away from playing for the CONCACAF title.

I’m excited for the Champions League final as well, it is the
sport’s the biggest game in the sport. Sometimes the Superbowl
contestants, the World Series contestants, or the MLS final
contestants, haven’t won their divisions either. Nobody cares. But,
if they did care, like they do for who wins the English League, or
can for the MLS as long as the Supporters Shield stays relevant,
then the regular season is more enjoyable. No?

It was a troll comment made for a troll. Of course I don’t care. I
am always excited to watch the Champions League. Just because
neither team won their regular season doesn’t make the finals any
less exciting.

@Alan, Galaxy won MLS and MLS Cup but got tossed from the
competition by a team with 0 points in domestic competition.
Toronto had a shot to win and go to Club World Cup. You don’t have
a problem with this?
Your league is garbage

Why should he? galaxy didn’t get the job done. It’s their fault and
only their fault.
