STARTERS MLS, US Soccer & NBC announce broadcasting partnership! Wow. Starting in 2012 and continuing through the 2014 season NBC properties will broadcast MLS and USA games. Breakdown for each of the 3 seasons: -NBC will have 2 regular season MLS games, 2 playoff games and 2 USA games. -NBC Sports Network (Versus new name) will have 38 regular season games, 3 playoff games and 2 USA games. -All telecasts will feature pre & post game coverage. Here is the full NBC press release. (I wrote this before the above mentioned news broke.) ESPN has again shown their less than genuine effort to support AMERICAN soccer. Yesterday during their big afternoon talk show Pardon The Interruption there were glowing ads for the start of the new Premier League season, but nothing for the USA v Mexico match tonight. That tells me everything I need to know about where their real interests lie. And where does that leave Fox Soccer on the American soccer landscape? USL, WPS and CONCACAF Champions League are still theirs. How about
