Wild that MLS national revenue is such a low percentage. The Apple deal is terrible.

Hiding the league from casual viewers when the sport is rapidly growing in the country was certainly a choice.

Knee-capping your future for a slightly better payday today, that's the American way.

But I was told by dumbasses that Bettman was knee-capping the sport and is Satan brought down to Earth for solidifying the NHL's position as *the* number four league, no matter how much ground MLS supposedly makes up in the coming decades.

This almost makes me have to post the Eric Wynalda lecture a third time, but I’ll refrain. As it stands, the leaks from MLS owners regarding dissatisfaction with the Apple deal are growing. The rumor is that Apple is even less satisfied.

Apple being unsatisfied is wildly incorrect. They’ve repeatedly spoken of the numbers exceeding expectations. That said, the owners being unsatisfied is definitely correct and is a huge problem that MLS has to address. I’d post evidence, but I’m in Cambodia, pounding 2 for 1 50 USD beers. I actually couldn’t care less at the moment, but normally I would care enough to look up sources.
