Default MLS Shootout

I have (as of just now) started a grass roots email campaign to get ExpressVu to offer the MLS Shootout package. I'm new around here (St John), has this been tried before?

I figure what the hell, its worth a try. So pitch in and send your (FREE!) email to: info@norsat.ca

Thanks. You can all come over to my house to watch...

You'd be much better off looking for a recently-illegal-but-not-enforced (that I know of) "grey" dish market, whereby you get an American dish and all unblocked channels for a certain amount with a charge card.

There is NO demand for MLS soccer in Canada (especially not on sattelite TV).

Judging by all the talk I used to see regarding MLS over on voyageurs (we need teams in the MLS, Toronto should get an MLS team blah blah blah,) it seems there is some demand for it in Canada.

I actually follow MLS fairly closely. I would agree though, I know someone with a 'grey' market dish and they get the MLS Shootout for free. I find it's actually easier to find someone who will let you watch MLS games in their living room on an illegal satelite dish than it is to find a sportsbar that will let you watch MLS matches on ESPN and the deuce.

cheers,

Demand for MLS here?

Just as much demand as there is for NHL Center ice.
