All about Univision.

All about Univision.
I saw that too...... ing bull ....pathetic
That was arguably one of the greatest US victories.
I'm contacting them for that bull
how do I learn spanish in 5 minutes?
You're ed my friend.
They interviewed some white people who obviously tried to do just that though. It was pretty great.
That was pathetic on ESPN's part. Idiots in Bristol![]()
ESPN has been turning into TMZ for awhile now.
I understand the WC is huge, soccer is gaining popularity, and that this was a far bigger feel-good story that everyone likes.....
but rape charges brought up against the greatest LB in the history of the most popular US sport is still a bigger sports story in the United States. That's just how it is.
This would be the same as the local news leading off with a report of the Mayor getting arrested, then the second story being about the local HS girls volleyball team winning state.
I mean, this was just the US getting into the knockout stage. Alot of people expected this to happen. They did it in dramatic fashion, it's a big deal, but tbh ESPn was just going with the bigger US sports story.
If they win the whole damn thing then it would be pitiful for ESPN to lead off with anything else.
good for you. I feel the same way. But the United States as a whole still cares more about the legal troubles of the greatest linebacker in the history of the far and away most popular sport in the country more than they do about the US soccer team getting into the knockout round.
Is Alergia also filing charges for getting raped?
LT is relevant?
You wanna know how relevant he is? When I read LT I thought of Ladanian Tomlienson and didn't even think of Taylor till Mono mentioned it was him.
Not really. Maybe in the NY area but I really doubt thats true.
I think it's absolutely true for the majority of the US. This is one of the legends of the NFL we're talking about. You can about it all you want but NFL >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> everything in the US. I wasn't one bit surprised to see LT leading on Sportscenter.
Honestly, it would have been a bigger story if the US hadn't advanced to the next round.
NFL is obviously the biggest sport in the US but that doesn't mean the majority of people care about a linebacker who played 25 years ago. LT isn't some gigantic mega star and far more people care about what is happening now than some old dude and rape charges.
No way for either of us to prove it, though. We'll see what they lead with tonight.
Do you even follow the WC? Honestly. US advancing wasn't "expected". They fought their way to qualifying first in the group. That's an accomplishment.
Top Story on news.google.com is not LT's rape, but Donovan's goal.
In the US the belief was that not advancing was a complete failure for this team.
Front page of CNN.com - Donovan's goal - not LT's rape.
Front page of MSNBC.com
Donovan's goal 2nd top story after Obama - nothing on LT's rape.
I hope it will. But LT's story broke right around the time Sportscenter was about to start. There's no way they're not going to lead off with breaking news like that.
Front page of ESPN.com LOL Donovan's goal top story and LT is buried under about 4 other stories.
