    I'm wondering, does anyone know any rough figures involving local cable deals for MLS teams? Like how much they pay per game (or in Galaxy's case, get paid)? How much does production cost per game? I heard it was around $40,000 but I'm not sure. And I guess no one here can decipher the SUM/ABC deal.

    It really depends on a lot of factors. The more airtime an RSN has to burn because they don't have baseball every single day, the cheaper the airtime will be.
