Joyrex Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Local news had a bit on how some people (Americans) were upset that the ceremony after the Gold Cup where Mexico punished the USA 4-2 was only in Spanish... Would Mexico have complained if the US victory ceremony was all in English? I think not...

chenGOD Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Umm I hate to break it to you joyrex, but that wasn't spanish in that video...(j/k) Lol Howard got pwned..he even took a nice flail at Dos Santos' legs in that sequence. That was a sweet goal by Dos Santos, but I gotta go with Hernandez's back heel against Guatemala: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNbokfjYRyY Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide all signatures 백호야~~~항상에 사랑할거예요.나의 아들.

jhonny Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 The goal is so good because he didn't premeditate that, it took a deflection and he improvised in a split second. Natural goal-scorer.

Howard sucks. That is all.

GORDO Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 If the game had been played in Mexico and the ceremony were english only i assure you mexicans would be 100x more pissed.

Guest Mirezzi Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 The difference, and not a minor one, is that 80% of the fans in Mexico City wouldn't be American. It made perfect sense to have the ceremony and postgame bullshit in Spanish. Howard needs to STFU and L2P.

GORDO Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 Indeed, Mexico is still local when playing in the US but i was only answering JR's question.

Let's explore this scenario a bit more - what if both teams were non-Latin teams (say Man U(re) and ARSEnal were playing a game in Mexico somewhere, and the post-game stuff was all in English, since obviously the teams playing were not native Spanish speakers. Would there be outrage?

GORDO Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 probably not, just a a few complaints, but i know a few sports commentators that would take offense lol. but i can also imagine the audience booing too. no idea.

Speaking of offensive commentators, I cannot STAND when I watch football in Spanish and the commentator makes the missed shots now sound like goals - I'm usually in the other room and I hear this long drawn out "PEEEEEEEERRRRRRDEEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOOOOO!" and for a second it makes me think a goal was scored. Cabrones!
