women's basketball gets a higher TV rating than soccer - Coach34Colin Cowherd on his radio show - US/Brazil had a 2.4 U.S. rating while the Mets-Yankees was 2.6. WNBA = 0.32.

The biggest US Men's Soccer game in ??? years had fewer TV viewers than a Sunday night regular season matchup between two teams from New York? Or is the
point to show that even when it is a huge game, soccer won't outdraw regular season baseball? A more valid comparison in my mind would be ALCS or NLCS
games, not just a run of the mill regular season game.

A better comparison would be a Gold Medal women's basketball game at either the Olympics or the World Championships.
I don't even know where you would find MLS regular season soccer on TV, and I doubt it's ratings are very good. |

"ESPN reports a 0.2 average household cable
rating for "MLS Primetime Thursday." thats from 2007...and thats lower than women's basketball

I could be wrong about that, and I know that European league (UEFA maybe?) is really the top profesionally league. Are those games even broadcast in the US on
cable networks?

Sports fans know that MLS is a bull shit league compared to Euro soccer therefore they don't watch it. World Cup will be a different story.

MLS? Yeah, because it's like a third tier soccer league. I don't even watch MLS, and I'm a big soccer fan- I watch EPL, and this was the first year
I had a channel that carried their games- most of the channels carrying these games are ones you have to buy, though I do think Fox just bought the rights to
the Champions League games.
I've heard rumors of ESPN doing something like that, but I can't remember anymore. |

I wonder what the TV Ratings are for Team USA basketball qualifiers. I bet not as high as soccer.

Fox Soccer Channel averaged a 0.2 rating for EPL games and a 0.3 rating for FA Cup games. That's very comparable to womens basketball despite the fact FSC
is not available to nearly as many homes as ESPN is.

That would be comparable to the MLS.
