n fact, MLS has seen at least a little bump.
According to Mediaweek, the July 4 Los Angeles Galaxy-Seattle Sounders match drew 391,000 viewers, up 87 percent from last year’s Independence Day meeting between D.C. United and the Columbus Crew (209,000 viewers).
That’s a far cry from the World Cup numbers, but ESPN never expected to maintain that viewership.
