MLS talking heads such as Alexi Lalas continue to evangelize that the league has more parity than other competitions. However, when it comes to television broadcasts on the network he works for, there is no parity. Instead, as the only MLS television broadcaster left standing, FOX Sports has their favorites. For instance, when it comes down to the number of times each MLS team is on TV, several teams are left out with no national broadcasts for the MLS 2023 season.
For instance, if you’re a fan of Houston Dynamo, CF Montreal, Toronto FC or Vancouver, none of your games are available on television. Instead, every single game will be streamed via Apple’s MLS Season Pass for $99/year (or $14.99 per month).
