The women's game hasn't made the men's game more popular in the US, instead it has been ESPN promoting the hell of the US men's soccer team, World Cup, and Barclay's Premier League. MLS still has VERY little interest in the US Sports scene, ESPN has marketed the BPL and USMNT really well. With ESPN/FOX Soccer losing the rights I see this as a bad thing for the future of soccer in the USA. beIN TV which is a company owned by Al-Jazeria has been hard to get on the cable providers and thus making it harder to watch games. I am not going to order a channel to watch 2 US World Cup qualifiers. NBCU doesn't have the platforms to show the games that ESPN/FOX have been doing. I hope NBCU would consider subleasing a game or some games to ESPN to get some of their 83 million dollars they are paying a year. IMO I thought the best for US Soccer fans would have been for FOX/ESPN to keep the rights, NBCU winning was the 2nd best option, and the worst option would have been if beIN won the rights which thankfully they did not.
