Forbes outlined 5 reasons why USA MLS tv ratings have been sluggish so far this year.

1. ESPN downplaying MLS in order to tamp down new rights deal fee

2. American stars are in Europe

3. Shifting schedules over the past 3 years

4. More PL matches on USA network which has bigger reach than shutdown NBCSN. All PL is also on Peacock which is free for Comcast subs.

5. US networks have always favoured showing matches with great atmosphere off the pitch. But maybe not enough to offset diluted product on the pitch due to expansion.

Rollins did a poll about it. Main reason selected was only care about local team.

I doubt these guys are in Montreal lol , they call all their games out of a studio in Toronto unless the games are at BMO Field .
