Why does being an analyst for an MLS team sound more interesting than being an analyst for a Premier League team?

It seems more interesting to hear from an insider under those circumstances. For starters, an MLS analyst might actually be able and willing to chitchat with you. MLS is an odd place compared to the top European leagues - there's no threat of relegation, no scrambling to earn Champions or Europa League spots and, comparatively, also no money. There's the business with the 'designated players'. The dominant sport in this particular analyst's market is ice hockey. Etc.
