I'm watching the show right now and I have to say I'm pretty impressed. Hell, I'm damn impressed. Major kudos to FSW!

John Harkes is doing a pretty good job. He seems a natural for this thing.

The production values on the replays are much more than I expected.

I'm enjoying the hell out of the show as well...but there's one thing I'm not enjoying.

I just sent this e-mail to FSW and MLS:
-----------------
Hello!

I can't even begin to tell you how excited I am for the beginning of the eighth season of Major League Soccer. I can't help but believe this is the year my Columbus Crew will finally get over the top.

I must commend MLS and its television partners for the terrific coverage the league will have this year. Between the Fox Sports World contract and the best $49 I spend every year, the Shootout package, I'll be in soccer heaven throughout the season.

As I type this e-mail, I'm watching the debut of the MLS Wrap on Fox Sports World. It's a fantastic show - I'll definitely be watching all season.

The one criticism I have of the show is the pre-voiced highlight packages of the games. To be perfectly blunt, it sounds like FSW had an intern voice the highlights. I'm finding myself cringing quite a bit listening to the "disembodied highlight voice". It's really not good.

As I said, the show is terrific. It's a great way to end an MLS Saturday.

But please let somebody else do the highlights.

Thanks.

Interesting that they stole the EPL Review show's satellite intro to each match (Closing in on the stadiums). Or was that just a coincidence?

Argghh! Won't be able to see it this week. Maybe next.

One other note. I loved, loved seeing post-game highlights after the DCU game. That's a first, I think. Thanks FSW and MLS for getting this together. It's finally looking as if televising games is a planned, thought out process instead of an afterthought.
