    The commissioner did send me a email today outlining the priorities for 2014. Good to see him mention the hopefull expansion of U.S. televised games. The CFL ratings were comparable to the MLS on ESPN2 and NBCSN, it'd be nice if all the games were shown live.

    I do believe head to head that the CFL beat diveball ratings more often than not on espn/nbc

    I got the Email from the commissioner too.

    IIRC the CFL ratings on ESPN were higher than the MLS ratings on ESPN. I think that it was mentioned in This Thread:

    Ditto as well.
    The only thing I do not like is his self imposed blackout on the CBA.
    The fans interest is unbelievable on these negotiations and to blackout reporting on the status again is like the old days of TV blackouts. How did that work?

    That is not uncommon practice in negotiations for a new CBA, AT. This way, you don't have people yapping in the media and perhaps creating hard feelings which only makes negotiations more difficult.
