Espn Ready To Commit More To Mls

They want more viewership for the MLS Cup final? Hmm...

ESPN: Hey Don, the MLS Cup final was a great match but those ratings were quite poor.
Garber: Portland is a great soccer city and their fans were amazing the entire 90 minutes.
ESPN: Yes, but Don, MLS growth can only be attained through tv deals and ad revenue. You need more people watching the games.
Garber: Well LA and NYC can't make the MLS Cup every year.
ESPN: Or can they?
 
I guess since ESPN went all out on paying for TV rights for everything they need to expose as much of it as possible to try and get a return on their investment
