That annoying comment: "for our international audience only"
Everytime Mike Hill mentions a soccer program or soccer match, he had to add the phase "for our international audience only". It makes me wish I could want to watch it. BUT NOOOOOOOOO! Since only have ESPN and ESPN2 on digial cable and not ESPN International and living in America, I'm not worthy of having that type of coverage at all. 
OK, OK, sorry about the rant, but I had to get it off my chest. Any thoughts?
BTW I wish I was part of the international audience.

Yes, ESPN really pisses me off aswell. "Hey all you Americans watching this American company film this program in America - only people living outside America can watch it". I hate that Irish commentator aswell, he always says the most obvious things over and over again. How many times did he say Depor were missing Valeron last night. 20? 30? Max from FSW is better but I really miss Jonathan Pearce from the UK, he's a living legend. Infact we should do a poll for best commentator. Who is the Mexican/Brasilian commentator who shouts "goooaaaal" for 10 miutes at a time?

Kerpow, you are so right.
Tommy Smyth is the worst announcer ever. I think ESPN has him for his accent alone. He know nothing about soccer.

Those are annoying words, to be sure. But even more annoying is when they forget them, and then there are two or three threads on bigsoccer announcing "ESPN is showing two matches on Wednesday." It hasn't happened yet, but I'll bet you it does at some point.

Let's hope it's what we expect it to be.

Is ESPN Deportes entirely in Spanish?
Not that it matters, I mean, even if I don't understand it, the announcing is still probably better!!
I watched all of the World Cup on Univision.
