Anyone else out there going insane listening to the ESPN commentating? Why is it that ESPN insists we have a lead commentator who calls the play by play and then, to drive us nuts, each time he calls the players name, he ads in a "factoid" about the player.

This is driving me insane. It seems that ESPN has invented "Pop up Soccer" (like the old Pop-up Video from VH-1 that told facts about the music video or artist while you watched the video)

Put your top commentator babbles in this thread please. Here's one to start:

"And Keller clears the ball long - he lives in a castle not far from the stadium and plays here in Germany."

Good lord.

It was Wynalda and Foudy who got on my nerves yesterday. Really tasking SGE to task for playing Rooney when it was a perfect scenario for him to play. He needs to get fit so a 30 minute run out was perfect for him. I expect the same thing will happen next game, especially since Owen's looked none too sharp.
