How Is Anyone Supposed to Watch This Game?

Reason No. 137 why soccer won’t make it here:

The U.S. national team’s critical game against El Salvador was shown on Spanish television. KMEX’s broadcast was the worst sports broadcast I have ever seen. Not only was the game delayed, it was edited so much that a 90-minute game came out to no more than 40 minutes (including commercials). Both U.S. and El Salvador played so lackluster, you wonder if they even cared. Not only did the game end in a tie, the players actually seemed happy about it. And let’s not even discuss the Galaxy.

Sorry, Europe and South America, the World Cup was fun, but that’s about it.
