"The ABC announcers were more concerned with the Italian coaches investigation - they must've mentioned that 4 times (or more) during the match. It's almost like they have tried to adapt the NBA or NFL model of announcing for soccer: lots of figures and stats during stopped play don't work well with soccer(these really bugged me during the matches today)."

I agree. Who the heck cares about the Italian investigation? and why were they so infatuated by that?
They sound like the Inquirer or something.

They were dead on about the refs, though
