LARRY MUNSON WOULD HAVE MADE A FINE SOCCER ANNOUNCER
OH, HI THERE. We've been on the mothership living la vida soccer for the better part of the past week, but we'd be negligent if we didn't share the Larry Munson remix of John Brooks' winning header in yesterday's triumphant 2-1 win over Ghana. There's really very few differences between the basic key of announcing college football and soccer games. You may lose your mind, you are encouraged to use dramatic hyperbole, and if you happen to be very partial to one team, well, go ahead and roll in it for the viewer's benefit/disgust. As long as you aren't Joe Buck, and don't sound like you hate every second of your existence, you'll be fine in either universe.
P.S. Please let Univision cover a few bowl games.
