Batres = Guatemala Proud

All of Guatemaula should be most proud of the job done by
Batres and his crew; for the first time in WarnerCo history,
we now have a go-to World-Class-Calibre guy to run the
middle for all future US-Mexico games. This will do more
for the Mexico-US rivalry than any results one way or
the other, because El Tri respects Batres and yesterday
for the first time in forever El Tri had to play the US straight
up.

Batres = WarnerCo's version of Pierluigi Collina, the man
no one f*'s with, no matter how big/massive their head or
their paypacket.

WELL DONE Guatemaula, you should be proud....
