No idea what the announcers are saying but they have soccer in their blood. Contrast that with the announcers at NBC who lack emotion besides their every now and then stupid/ irritating comments that spoil your whole experience. I couldn't believe my eyes and I was laughing my azz off when I watched the goal at Telemundo and switched right back to see NBC's commercials.

What bothers me is that only soccer well merit having the game being described half a world away. Why only in soccer is this allowed to happen. To imagine any other sport on US tv doing that is beyond imagination. Well said BC and AP ,you go online.

Surely no broadcaster could be THAT stupid. Now the real truth has sunk in and I am somewhat speechless. If I had been watching and not at work, I'm not sure my TV would have survived.
