<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >MLS commissioner Don Garber defended the league’s streaming deal with Apple during a <em>Front Office Sports</em> event, just over a week after revealing some surprising viewership metrics about the 10-year, $2.5 billion media-rights contract.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >“The media and pundits just don’t get it yet,” Garber said at Huddle in the Hamptons<em> </em>on Friday. “I’m not sure we are where we need to be, but I know that we’re going to have to get there soon.”</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >At MLS All-Star festivities in Austin last month, Garber said regular-season matches this season have been <a href="https://fos.cmail20.com/t/t-l-gtuidjl-tiiyvjkud-jy/" style="border-width:0;color:#3866F6;text-decoration:none;" >averaging 120,000 unique viewers</a>, which was an increase of almost 50% compared to 2024.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >However, unique viewers are not a true comparison to the average-minute audience that Nielsen, the industry standard for TV ratings, tracks for most other major sports leagues. In 2022, the last season before the Apple deal went into effect, ESPN networks averaged 343,000 viewers per match for their allotment of national TV broadcasts. Fox Sports also had some English-language broadcasts.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >At Huddle in the Hamptons, Garber highlighted the international aspect of Apple’s global deal, saying he’s just as interested in who’s watching in Argentina as he is in who’s watching in Columbus, Ohio. “We had no ability to do that with a domestic linear deal, without going out and selling individual game packages to be the fourth or fifth or tenth program on some channel in Germany,” Garber said.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >Garber believes MLS is at the forefront of a sports streaming revolution, despite the viewership not reflecting the switch just yet. “Other than the hassle of people complaining about it, we feel pretty good,” he said.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >Garber predicted the world’s top soccer leagues will all eventually use a similar TV distribution model as MLS, which now has 600 games per season, “treated as one global feed” on Apple. “We’re just early,” he said.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >Looking back at the decision to broadcast exclusively on the streamer, Garber is confident that moving away from multiple local and national TV partners was the right call. “We had 30 games on ESPN, 30 games on Fox, and 30 Games on Univision, and we had 540 games on local TV, and nobody was watching them, and we weren’t getting paid,” he said.</p>

<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >The NFL Players Association has hired a new interim executive director, as the embattled union continues to deal with the fallout from recent scandals.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >Veteran labor executive David White, who was the runner-up for the full-time executive director role in 2023, is temporarily taking over for Lloyd Howell Jr., who <a href="https://fos.cmail20.com/t/t-l-gtuidjl-tiiyvjkud-jk/" style="border-width:0;color:#3866F6;text-decoration:none;" >resigned last month</a> after several damning reports came to light.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >White is the former head of the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), which is essentially Hollywood’s version of the NFLPA. He served as national executive director and chief negotiator of SAG-AFTRA from 2009 to 2021. </p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >More recently, White has served as the CEO of 3CG Ventures, an executive coaching and consulting firm he founded in 2022. However, he is pausing all of his client work related to 3CG Ventures and resigning his board service, including at consulting firm RGP, the NFLPA told <em>Front Office Sports</em>.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >NFLPA president Jalen Reeves-Maybin, in a statement, said a “comprehensive, player-led process” led to White’s hiring, which multiple reports said occurred after a vote among the 32 player representatives of each franchise Sunday night.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >Reeves-Maybin also said the union will soon commence another player-led “thorough search process” for a permanent executive director, who will be tasked with <a href="https://fos.cmail20.com/t/t-l-gtuidjl-tiiyvjkud-ju/" style="border-width:0;color:#3866F6;text-decoration:none;" >several multibillion-dollar decisions</a> around the next collective bargaining agreement.</p>

<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >The NFLPA has been in flux since late June, when Pablo Torre and Mike Florio <a href="https://fos.cmail20.com/t/t-l-gtuidjl-tiiyvjkud-tl/" style="border-width:0;color:#3866F6;text-decoration:none;" >revealed findings from a collusion grievance</a> that the NFLPA had brought against the NFL. Originally filed in 2022, the case’s arbitrator made his ruling in January, but that was kept private for nearly six months.</p>
<p style="color:#000;margin-top:0;margin-bottom:12px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.5;letter-spacing:0;" >Shortly after Howell resigned, NFLPA chief strategy officer <a href="https://fos.cmail20.com/t/t-l-gtuidjl-tiiyvjkud-tr/" style="border-width:0;color:#3866F6;text-decoration:none;" >JC Tretter stepped down</a>, too.
