Now I will say, that I don’t think the MLS is going to ever be on equal par with the other major sports league here, because in terms of the level of talent, it’s like a Single-A baseball team compared to the best European Leagues. But more and more people are following the Euro Leagues.

You can watch every English Premier League game on NBC, and now Fox features the German Bundesliga. And the day is fast approaching when the UEFA Champions League Final will rival the Super Bowl.

“And the day is fast approaching when the UEFA Champions League Final will rival the Super Bowl.”

Maybe not that fast :

3,652,000 combined viewers Fox English and Spanish for last year’s final.

111,000,000 AVERAGE viewers, 167,000,000 Total viewers for last year’s Super Bowl 50.
