Soccer's redeeming value, "NO COMMERCIALS"

[miaplus3]

So many sports are a commercial fest. Mind numbing Madison Ave wares displayed. I'm mean there is halftime breaks & sometimes the action can be slow when teams get into a defensive posture, but at the World Cup level the drama should be kind to the eye. For the past 24 years or so I do enjoy World Cup month. Also I sort of like early morning action. Good Luck comrades!

The sponsors know it. This is why you have to pay a lot of money to be a sponsor as you are exclusive for that product. Soccer will never have in game commercials.

The question is are the commercials more exciting than the game?

You talking about the NFL ? The League that has redzone because they know no one can watch one single game without falling asleep

Being facetious but you know that's how a lot of Americans think.

Really ? Did you do a poll across the country ?

Its the # 1 sport for youth in America today ( also #1 worldwide ). Of course the cost for parents plays a big part in that , but its a fact.

NASCAR , now there's an exciting sport. Hard left turn for 200+ laps.......

If the USA can have a soccer breakthrough this is their opportunity. Yes, yes, yes, I know football, basketball & baseball rule, but if the USA make it to the knock out stage, they will have many eyes on them.
