I might as well be watching the NBA. He may have all the experience in the world but not one that comes across well to his audience. "Draws the foul" translates to "wins the free kick" "Denied" translates to "cut out / blocked" "Drills it" translates to "shoots from distance" "Puts it up there" translates to "floated cross into the box" "Go ahead goal" translates to "I'm watching the wrong game". JP obviously does not watch any EPL games because it night and day on how he calls the games. Fire him before we get to the World Cup !!!

I used to enjoy listening to him and Seamus Malin on ESPN, doing World Cup and Champions League coverage. I kind of liked him as a commentator.

He's in the same category as Dave whats his name that did the world cup games with Marcelo Balboa. He has nothing interesting to say so he says everything in that over the top ultra-dramatic commentator voice. Thank God for Telemundo! JP Dellacamera is an embarrassment to US Soccer.
