Their popularity is derived from perceived scarcity. They are only sold by one vendor for a relatively short period of time. They are not gourmet, they are a mass produced. They are fine, but not worthy of the cult-like following.

I mean sorta. You still bent the knee to the demands of MLS, and compromised the competition.

Happy to accidentally help! I was genuinely curious. I think the prevailing consensus is people are excited about it but have a little concern about age.

Okay cool you “win.” Will you stop now?

No, that wasn’t my point. Have a great day.

You literally can! Nearly every game played yesterday was streamed by their respective teams! This is so dumb. I’m done with this waste of time conversation

Yes. That’s not what we are talking about. Every team does that for SOME games. The Atlanta game was also broadcast on Atlanta’s website. MLS/Apple level production isn’t viable.

It is interesting, for heavily involved fans! but it isn’t worth the expense of a national broadcast! This isn’t hard. It’s literally just a cost thing. Teams broadcast some preseason games where the TV infrastructure is cheap and possible and they do it on their own channels.

Is MLS at the level of global notoriety for the teams in the premier league? No. Also those games aren’t televised because TV production is EXPENSIVE. This is an entirely false equivalence.

The players and coaches do not care about results, it’s about fitness, on boarding tactics and trialing fringe players. That is not a product for public consumption nor a product that a casual viewer would become a league fan as a result of. There is ZERO upside to the expense of broadcast.

Preseason “games” aren’t games. They are glorified training sessions with our of shape players playing trialists in tiny stadia often as closed scrimmages. They aren’t going to move the needle to bring in new fans and the expense of broadcast production FAR out weigh the potential benefits.

Like Latte Lath who Boro have been playing every game and just limped off injured.

And this is why teams shouldn’t play players who they are negotiating transfer for.

You want this shit, go post on the Nazi site. I don’t have the time or the patience for being told what to do by a random person on the internet.

What the fuck are we doing here or exactly? I don’t know you. I was not being combative. I wasn’t even originally talking to you. You jumped in to an existing conversation, altered the topic and are now mad that I won’t entertain your demands? Fuck off into the sun.

Okay but this had nothing to do with the conversation at hand. Also I don't care?

The owner of the site did a Nazi salute at the inauguration! He actively supports the far-right Nazi party in Germany. Any outlet who still seeks to engage with users there is accountable for their support of his views. You want to use it to keep tabs on the right? Fine. But posting there HARMS.

So you think it is therefore *someone’s* responsibility to be there, tacitly supporting the hate of the platform for some unknowable potential balance it *might* provide? No. Absolute not. Any “sensible” media still there is actively supporting the platform and therefore not sensible.

There isn’t a plan. Plans cost money, something the league doesn’t want to do.
