Way better than the ESPN
If you are in the US and you like football (or The Sport Known In The USA As Soccer), watch Republica Deportiva. If you manage to grasp the meaning of half the sentences, it will provide you with twice as much entertainment and information as any ESPN sport program on football. This sport is not about statistics, and numbers are not a good way to describe it (someone please inform the ESPN guys). The presence of nice ladies may look like a cheap bait for the average audience (male, 15-45), but ... what can I say? (it works, here's what I say) The coverage given by Spanish-speaking channels to the Football World Cup has been far greater than the ESPN's. There is not just the 90 minutes match: Latin countries (including the finalists Italy and France) live and breathe football 365 days a year. Football is, for them, part of life, poetry and a passion just as important as a wife or a husband. Republica Deportiva has been a good way to enjoy the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
