Last Night, Seattle Sounders FC and LA Galaxy played a nationally televised game on NBC Sports, both of the main players they were advertising, Landon Donovan and Clint Dempsey, were both matchday scratches. (Landon had a ankle issue while Dempsey hurt his hamstring in a closed door practice earlier in the week) NBC Sports has had hardly any luck with any soccer matches this year

The game ended in a tie, Eddie Johnson scored off a corner kick from Mauro Rosales for Seattle in the 23rd minute. And Robbie Keane scored off a free kick just before halftime for LA.

Even though I think the coverage for the MLS is great they need to work on it a little bit, glad to see it being advertised during EPL games on NBC Sports Network. Because even though Attendance is improving, the TV ratings aren't (Although some people forget there's an ESPN2 and other networks than ESPN here in the states)

I think if America does well in Brazil that will help alot. It is kind of hard to find a footing on TV due to Football, Basketball, and Baseball. (There's only 3 games televised regarding on a Free To Air Network (Meaning NBC, FOX, CBS, ABC etc.) all on NBC)
