Here's to You, Major League Soccer
To make a quick point: well done to the media folks at Major League Soccer! As someone who watches a lot of domestic sports and spends a good part of any sport season cursing the NBA, MLB, or NFL for their ridiculous approach to online content delivery, I have been nothing but awed by the first weekend of subscribing to MLS Matchday Live. I caught some of the Seattle game streaming online via Matchday Live, watched the Timbers on a local sports channel at a friend's house, and came home and caught the end of the Chivas match online. All legal. As I reflected on the Timbers match, I referred to my Matchday iPhone application to catch highlights. I watched archived games I missed during the evening as a I typed. Again, all of this was legal. I can't emphasize enough how remarkable this is. With Timbers going to the foreign state where the exchange rate for a visit is three points, then coming home for a US Open Cup game, I feel terrific about the way this season is going.
