Posted on 09/23/2007 7:25:11 PM PDT by RDDABlack

So,I am sitting in my living room in a small town in Maryland. And now I have to know Spanish to figure out the Score of the Game.

I do not care. TV is Off. The is the United States. This is American Football. We speak English. I now do not watch NBC football !

Need to add two more GOALs for a touchdown. You only had 5. TDs are 7.

Oh, who cares. Football is a business, and the NFL wants to attract Hispanic viewers. Good business decision.

Every time that wack nut commie Olbermann comes on I have to change the station. I simply cannot listen or watch the man. He’s a disgrace and a puke.

So things go back to normal when Hispanic Month is over?

I think this is a foothold/threshold situation. :-(

That is how I see it. It is a marketing ploy to attract Latino people here away from Soccer (the sissy sport) to Football (the real sport)..

I don’t like Olberman, but I completely agreed with his commentary tonight. The Eagles “retro” uniforms were AWFUL.

As to the Spanish...what about the subtitles:

Osos de Chicago and Vaqueros de Dallas.
