After a few days exploring the beaches of Mexico, I realized it wasn't only the weather that spoiled me. When turning on the TV after a long day in the sun, there were no fewer than 3 soccer games on TV at any particular time. 3 games!!!!
Coming from the US, where there might be one game on Fox Soccer Channel or maybe, just maybe, an MLS game on ESPN2, having some variety was refreshing. To be fair, many of the games were from the Mexican First Division, but there was the occasional European match thrown in as well.
Let's be clear: I don't think anyone wants to see every MLS game. Toronto/Salt Lake isn't an appealing match. However, the ability to be able to change away from such a dreadful matchup to a more intriguing one would mark the next stage of development in the American Soccer market.
