    Worth watching every minute, especially if you haven't been follwing the MLS last season.

    one of the stats in there from last season is attendance ...league-wide average for MLS - at around 17,000, it is comparable to the NBA

    I watched this all the way thru.  It is not bad at all for a mainstream news.  And I am saying that as a Beckham fan thru and thru.

    When Beckham met my team Fire and Blanco in the final game of the season last year, I saw a great rivalry brewing that should build this year.

    This video from the news show is balanced fairly well.  I hope it gets some of their viewers to want to know about Beckham and MLS more in depth. and maybe it will.
