Stone, Dellacamara, Balboa, O'brien are make your broadcast
unwatchable. I will watch on telemundo. They disrespect the game. I'm
an American born and raised. Tommy Smyth lives in America so why are you
afraid of him. Show some respect. O'brien is utter bile. |

Mike Cardillo :
Would you put a guy who's only experience is watching his son playing
Little League to call the World Series? That's what ESPN has done with
Dave O'Brien, a dreaded soccer-dad and a phoney at that. SCORE! |

Ben Drerup :
I support this petition! I have already changed my DishNetwork package to
one that doesn't include ESPN so that I could get good soccer coverage.
It is such a waste that ESPN has the rights to the World Cup when the
games will be announced by amateurs who don't understand the game and
get bored with the action and start talking about other crap while the game
is on. |

Any petition supporting the removal of American style announcers is
supported by me as well. Its unfortunate that TSN, an ESPN affiliate here
in Canada, has British quality announcers while you guys there in the
States have to deal with SCOOOOOOOOORE! Get the BBC feed boys! |

Rob Stone is a horrible announcer and represents everything that is wrong
with American Soccer. This is a sport played by everyone across class
lines. Not just middle class wankers. Get some announcers who have some
experience with the sport and not some baseball loving idiot! Get some
really good announcers who know the game. Bring back Mike Hill!!! |

Gary Beltrami :
I support this petition. As an American fan you are doing the game a great
diservice with the cast of announcers you are planning to use. I am not an
expat of another country but a US born citizen who loves the game. Please
consider using talent that is familiar with the game and that apriciates it
the way we, the fans, do. Thank you, |

the best tournament in the world and deserves the best commentary. |

geoffrey mccarthy :
Would love to hear a handfull of Americans announcing the matches. In fact,
as an American, nothing would make me prouder. However, as a fan of the
game I want to hear the best announcing possible, and the chosen announcers
can not offer that. Please reconsider you selection. |

Thankfully, I'll be in Germany for the World Cup...I will not have to
suffer through these terrible announcers that will be doing the games...
Unfortunatly, my TIVO will be forever scared with the disgrace that is
Dave O'Brien, JP and the Stoner...
Don't be afraid of a foreign accent...Present the game the way it
should be! |

It isn't the American sports fans you're appeasing with World Cup
coverage, it is the fans of the universal sport. The best way to do this
is by using authentic commentators. Don't fear British accents, and let
them call it the way it is meant to be called. If not, I'll gladly
watch the spanish stations. |
