I only watched the highlights but from what I saw it was an electric atmosphere rivaling European/South American club ball. Great to see in the MLS and IMHO it's what's needed more than anything else (i.e. young fan excitement rivalling the other big 4 sports) if the USMT is ever going to rival those top-tier national teams.

I can't possibly see MLS lasting long-term with contracts like this to Messi, unless MLS can somehow get a massive boost in broadcast rights $$$. |

I think that's their hope - stars like Messi will increase interest, growing viewership for the league. |
