One More For Today

This will be my last post today as it is my second (well, really third, I combined the first two) of the day, but I just found this nugget I wanted to pass along. James Edward is reporting that RSL is finalizing a LOCAL TV CONTRACT with KSL to broadcast 13 RSL games this season, starting with this weekend's trip to Canada. It's about time, nothing will help bring in the casual follower like actual local TV coverage. The casuals and the curious DO NOT buy Directkick, and why should they? This allows RSL to get out there to all of the potential fanbase, and who knows? Maybe a few think, "Hey, that's entertaining, maybe we ought to go to a game or two!" Local TV is currently the best way for RSL to get out to the public and try to expand their base beyond the already established group. It may be a couple weeks late, but as they say, better late than never. Now let's just hope they keep Bill Riley on the play-by-play, he's awesome. And, of course, winning never hurts!
