Scott D. Pierce: New stadium very TV-friendly

Thats great that they might broadcast every home game to get some support for the team, but as a season ticket holder, I would love to have every road game broadcast by RSL, so that I wont have to watch games on my small computer screen listening to opposing commentators.

HOORAY!!!

the games will be in HD? I refuse to watch sporting events these days if they're not broadcast in HD. How we got by with just SD in the past is beyond me!

Scott, when are you going to stop promoting RSL and banging on the MTN? What happened to the old Scott who used critique local sportscasters? We haven't seen that Scott in a long time.

Scott is realizing what is important. And is focusing on what the public wants.

Personally....I dig the new Scott.

I look forward to reading Scott's articles. He bangs on the MTN because the MTN is horrid! And RSL is a topic many are interested in. I enjoyed reading about the cameras. I love the MLS but EPL is much easier to watch because of their great camera work. Now if we could just talk Tommy and Andy Grey to come be the commentators we'll be set!!

Broadcasting soccer is a lot like broadcasting bowling or curling, maybe closer to Bob Ross painting.

The new stadium looked amazing last night: a piece of art. Great news for MLS: slowly but surely the league is establishing itself, building a fan base, the quality of play is getting better. Now, we have to get Garber to take the league to the next level: single table, no playoffs, remove the salary cap, introduce promotion/relegation. Are you reading this, Mr. Garber?

As a fan in St. George, it's great to hear they are working on local broadcast deals. I can't wait for the day I can watch more than just a few games on TV!
