The least viewed MLS Championship ever

http://worldsoccertalk.com/2013/12/1...-mls-cup-ever/



Saturday’s live broadcast of the 2013 MLS Cup on ESPN had an average viewing audience of 505,000, which is the least-viewed MLS Cup ever on English-language television.
The previous record low was the 748,000 viewers who watched the 2010 MLS Cup between Colorado Rapids and FC Dallas. That game had a 0.44 TV rating, but the viewing audience was greater than the 2013 MLS Cup due to the 2010 game being shown at night instead of the 4pm ET broadcast between Sporting KC-Real Salt Lake.
The 2012 MLS Cup between between LA Galaxy and Houston Dynamo had a 0.7 TV rating and was viewed by an average of 797,000 people. The 2013 MLS Cup viewership was down 44% from 2012.
The disappointing 505,000 viewing audience figure for the Sporting Kansas City against Real Salt Lake game follows the 29% decline in regular season MLS TV ratings on ESPN compared to last year, as well as a 8% decline on NBCSN.
The 505,000 number is the same as the viewing audience for a repeat of Everybody Loves Raymond, which was shown on TBS at the same time as the second half of the 2013 MLS Cup. In contrast, 514,000 viewers watched MLS Cup 2013 on UniMas.
In comparison to Premier League matches, the 505,000 people who watched MLS Cup 2013 was fewer than the 507,000 who watched Chelsea-Southampton on Sunday, December 1 at 11am ET on NBCSN but slightly greater than the 499,000 viewers who watched Arsenal versus Everton (played on Sunday at 11am ET on NBCSN).
Read: Why Major League Soccer Has Bigger Issues Than Just Poor TV Ratings
TV ratings for MLS’s premier game, MLS Cup, from 1996 to 2013 are:
0.5 2013: *Sporting Kansas City-Real Salt Lake (ESPN)
0.7 2012: Los Angeles-Houston (ESPN)
0.8 2011: Los Angeles-Houston (ESPN)
0.4 2010: Colorado-FC Dallas (ESPN)
0.8 2009: Real Salt Lake-Los Angeles (ESPN)
0.6 2008: Columbus-New York (ABC)
0.8 2007: Houston-New England (ABC)
0.8 2006: Houston-New England (ABC)
0.8 2005: Los Angeles-New England (ABC)
0.8 2004: D.C. United-Kansas City (ABC)
0.6 2003: San Jose-Chicago (ABC)
0.8 2002: Los Angeles-New England (ABC)
1.0 2001: San Jose-Los Angeles (ABC)
0.7 2000: Kansas City-Chicago (ABC)
0.7 1999: D.C. United-Los Angeles (ABC)
1.0 1998: Chicago-D.C. United (ABC)

More people watch college football spring practices.

Soccer is the WNBA level in terms of interest.

You are absolutely wrong about it not being hipsters. It mostly is and its spearheaded by people like 96.5 the buzz and dumbasses like lazlo. All of those people have hipster followers.
Man, I was there with the organizers trying to manage it and the KCPD getting numbers so they could control it accordingly.

Disagree. The most accurate way of determining a true champion is when everyone play everyone twice (home and away) for points and most points in the end win.

I don't know why MLS is trying to be cute with these play off games and championship games. I like the way European leagues do it more. MLS is built on the Champions League model for some reason.

I certainly appreciate that the Supporters Shield exists.

Look at all the douche turds that are super butt hurt about the fact that the only champion we have in this town is SKC.

Embrace it you morons. Unless you think the Chiefs or Royals are going to make any championship runs, it's all we have to hang our hat on.

Maybe the OP who doesn't like soccer can also create a baseball thread so he can demonstrate just how little he cares about that sport too?

Not everyone has to like it but being constantly disingenuous about it is funny.

I'm not even what you'd call a soccer fan, but holy shit this site is full of morons.

If Deberg and Skers fan are on one side of the fence, I'll gladly align myself on the other.
