ESPN / ESPN Deportes Rant

Sorry, this just really peeves me...

On SportsCenter they have this thing called an "ESPN Deportes" segment, where some ESPN Deportes anchorman/woman talks about "Mexican? Spanish?" sports in broken english.

Here's the thing: the highlights are, more often than not, about teams playing in the English Premier League or even MLS!! (NOT RELATED TO MEXICO OR SPANISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES!! )

What idiot at ESPN decided this was a good idea?

Are they trying to make soccer seem even less "American" to potential fans?

It is just so lame. But then again, it IS stupid ESPN, so I don't suppose I should expect anything different from them.
