ESPN - You Really Don't Get It Do You?
I do enjoy my sports. Many days I just don't have enough time to watch sports so I turn on ESPN News for a half or so and get caught up. Most of the ESPN News Casters do a great job of reporting the daily sports happenings. Actually they all do a great job, One Sportscaster does have this little quirk that does bother me.
I watch ESPN News in the United States a country who's official language is English. All of the sports casters on ESPN News Broadcast in English. I am somewhat embarrassed to say that even though my wife of over 10 years was born in a third world country and speaks English as her 2nd language that I still only speak English.
One of the ESPN Newscasters seems to feel a need to toss in a few Spanish phrases over the course of the 1/2 hour show. While it doesn't typically detract from the show or even the news I receive, I shouldn't be required to consult an English Spanish dictionary to understand a NewsCast that is suppose to be broadcast in English Only. ESPN does have a Spanish language version, I am betting that if someone on the Spanish version of ESPN spoke English that ESPN would put a quick end to it.
