But where is the  coverage of The Baltimore Blast?  Baltimore's Major Indoor Soccer League Team has won the equivalent of the SUPERBOWL for the 4th time in 6 years. Saturday night the Baltimore Blast beat the Monterray LaRaza  14-11 but for example, WBAL TV gives the story just four sentences:

From the WBAL TV website:

MILWAUKEE -- The Baltimore Blast defeated the Monterrey La Raza, 14-11, to win the 2008 MISL Championship Game at Milwaukee’s U.S. Cellular Arena.

Denison Cabral led Baltimore with three goals and was named MVP of the Championship Series.

The Blast, who won the MISL Title in 2003, 2004 and 2006 swept the New Jersey Ironmen in the Quarterfinals and the Milwaukee Wave in the Semifinals to advance to their fourth Championship in six years. The Blast went 2-2 against La Raza this season, with both teams winning on their home field.

From the WJZ TV website gives the story five sentences:

 From WMAR TV website,

There is no update on the Blast win and after searching Sunday night for any information pertaining to the MISL was MIA.

As  a sports fan attending indoor soccer games, Ravens games, and Orioles games, I can tell you the Blast fans are vocal and ethusiastic, screaming support every time a goal is scored.  The last game between the Milwaukee Wave and the Blast saw Denison Cabral leap onto the plexiglass after scoring!  The players acknowledging the fans, the fans showing their love and support for the home town team. 

Too bad this love doesn't always get the coverage it deserves.  Give the Blast a break,(next year) they deserve more television coverage of the induvidual players in the days and weeks leading up to the finals, and follow them to the Championship.  Hey Baltimore, you have another teams to cheer for, in between wins (?) by the other two Major League Teams.
