MLS officially signs broadcast deal with NBC, FSC OUT!

35

Amazing news coming out of MLS HQ this morning as the league appears to have signed a deal with NBC for the next few years. The deal, as I know it right now is, that 43 games will be broadcast on Versus (to be named NBC Sports soon) with 6 games carried on NBC prime... the big cheese, so to say. ESPN will still carry their own MLS games as usual, but Fox Soccer is officially out. I can't tell you how amazing this is. FSC always did a terrible job with MLS and as much I loved them for carrying the games early on as the league grew their coverage sadly did not. It's time to leave them in the dust. Welcome NBC, our new broadcasting overlords!
