^^Does anyone really care though? Certainly not on a FIFA scale. The NBA is more interesting. I would say that really only the Olympic events or the World Cup surpass league interest in most sports(maybe Rugby WC as well).

The Olympic tournanent was good for Canada because it was more of an all star game format where talent wins out. They were not even allowed to practice.
