Unexpectedly, Fox Sports in Spanish has popped up on my Dish subscription (ch. 855; YMMV). They have several of the games back-to-back-to-back. So I'll be "working" from home today.
In a strange way the commentary is actually better in a language I don't understand much of. You get the player names and basics like "pass", "center" and so on, without the rest of the banality of the typical second-tier commentator.
/I'm going to try the Spanish audio for Monday Night Football and see if that makes the broadcast more tolerable than the braying schoolboys in the ESPN booth.
Dear Manchester United strikers, please could one of you score tonight? That would be cool.
Dear Manchester United defenders, please could you keep a clean sheet tonight? That would also be cool.
Dear Gabriel Obertan, if you are playing, could you please offer us some hope that you are better than Nani. That would be really farking awesome.
/When CSKA Moscow coach Leonid Slutski (insert own joke here) was 19, he fell out of a tree while rescuing a cat. He injured his knee and his playing career was ended. The cat was fine.
