ESPN commentators

The reason why he said that is because his own career was cut short due to multiple concussions.

Commentary career looks to be going the same way, and I can only conclude, for the same reason.

again, please let it be so...he does every game for my local team. My brother is buddies with members of the team and they don't like him.

My favourite Sports commentator of all is American.

John Madden, an American Football commentator, who has now retired, was the most knowledgable of any.

He coached the Oakland Raiders for ten seasons and won the Superbowl in 1977.

Sorry Americans, people on this forum can be so stupid. I wonder what you guys think of our American football coverage.

God...I hated Madden, lol...he was good at stating the obvious, and fellating Brett Farve (who may be an Eagle soon, which pisses me off). That's about it.

kissass... no really why do they use different terminology ?? if the Yanks really want to embrace the sport then youd think they would introduce the correct meanings for this game..
What happens if someone from the states comes to England/Brittain and watches a game on telly ?? they wont understand the commentators.

Our Abbrieviation is MCFC Manchester City Football Club..
Not MCSC Manchester City Soccer Club..
FIFA is "Federation International de Football Association"
UEFA is "Union of European Football assciations"

The world Bodies Of which the USA are members and European Bodies are using the word "Football"..

Just saying like...

It's funny to me at times as the terminology isn't always correct, but it's not something I either care about or get worked up about.<br /><br />-- Mon Jul 25, 2011 2:18 pm --<br /><br />

The commentary I had described De Jong as "one of the least favourite City players, according to the fans".

i heard that... what the fuck?? i also heard "city will be playing their eternal rivals in the community shield" which made me laugh and something about a goal being described as "the ball almost crossed the almighty divide"..... one a again what the fuck??? haha

That made me piss my sides when he said that.

'THE BALL HAS CROSSED THE ALMIGHTY DIVIDE!'

I think he was just trying to be clever. No sillier than terms like "onion bag." ;)

lol good 'un mate ;).

There's no such thing as 'correct' terminology. It's all subjective. America has a different culture so how do you expect them to conform to our terminology when the audience is primarily american?
