Get Into The Game!
Posted May 22, 2007 Posted Under:Memo to Fox Soccer & MLS:
Most days it’s not easy being a soccer fan. My wife, who has never missed a USC Football Game, gives me a look as if something is hanging from my nose when I watch endless soccer on the weekend. However, like you I have learned to cope with being obsessed an un-popular game.
So when MLS and Fox Soccer team up to showcase soccer I get some time in the sunshine. But then I see and hear the commercial to showcase the matches they air.
Wow did they miss an open netter! Those commercials suck! The band, The Rising Sound, is embarrassing. The music, Get In The Game, is unbearable. The only thing worse is televising an MLS game in Giants Stadium with 5,000 fans in attendance.
I have to believe Sunil Gulati had a say in choosing the band.
