Both FSW and MSG will be broadcasting the game. Will MSG be picking up the FSW feed, or will the produce their own telecast?

Per soccerTV newsletter, MSG is picking up the FSW broadcast.

I would imagine MSG received a nice big check from FSW/US Soccer for the two hours of prime-time, granted MSG had nothing else to air.

Or, MSG actually paid a SMALL fee to FSW for the rights to broadcast the FSW feed on the MSG network?

It's possible...

MSG doesn't per chance pay the Metros for their broadcast rights, do they? They certainly promote the Metros like they're paying for it.

I dodn;t think MSG pays anything for MSG to broadcast the games. The Metros might actually pay MSG to broadcast the games, or maybe just pickup the production cost or something? I dunno. Maybe there is an agreement where Metros don;t pay MSG to show the games, and MSG picks up the production cost but gets to keep all the add revenue?
