Maybe TFC's numbers will pickup for the home opener - but this past Sunday night (up against hockey and the Raptors) the TFC game only drew 48,000 viewers in Canada. I haven't seen what the game got on Fox Sports 1 in the USA but they've laid some real rating eggs down there with their Sunday at 7:00PM games. The previous Sunday NYCFC and Portland attracted only 33,000 viewers on Fox Sports 1 across the USA. That's just plain brutal.
At some point these TV numbers have to start going up or else the MLS will have a real problem on its hands.
