It seems that in the interest of improving league broadcasts, Major League Soccer's broadcasting
department has set up a Twitter account specifically for TV-related feedback. Under the name
@MLSonTV, the account appeared yesterday with a call for any and all opinions fans might have on
the way the league is presented on the magic box - from announcers to the use of replay.
I thought I'd take "Soccer By The Numbers" literally for a change. How? For years, Google has been
busy digitizing books and printed materials, and they've been going back into historical archives.
So now, researchers (and, well, anyone with access to a computer, like me) can search for words or
phrases that have occurred in print over the past several hundred years, give or take.
