quick thoughts
- lots of Saturday 7pm matches. June 30 — July 4
-- July 8 looks tough, with matches in Houston and LA, followed by a home vs Toronto I assume the long break late May to early June is an international block that has to be kept open for FIFA?
-
— Ending with NY at home is nice!
Favorable for results, not for fans
Only one game against (home):
Vancouver Whitecaps
Colorado Rapids
Real Salt Lake
San Jose Earthquakes
Only one game against (away):
Los Angeles Galaxy
Portland Timbers
FC Dallas
Seattle Sounders
Chivas USA
Two games against (home, away):
Montreal Impact
Sporting Kansas City
Three games against (2 home, 1 away):
New York Red Bulls
Columbus Crew
DC United
New England Revolution
Three games against (1 home, 2 away):
Chicago Fire
Toronto FC
Houston Dynamo
MK
Confused
I swear the schedule I printed out from the Union website says that the game on August Fourth against Montreal is a Home game. Am I reading this right?
I’m happy about ny and dc home twice this year, but i think that we will get them twice away next year? I don’t like that

Considering the LiveWell games were taken by CSN, it was going to happen eventually.
CSN was clearly a better choice for the Union than 6abc locally, and the Comcast purchase of NBC, plus the subsequent acquisition of MLS TV rights by NBC, led to this outcome. Not a single fan will complain about it, since the production values have gone up drastically since the start of the 2011 season.
