I recommend streaming watchespn, it's Steve McManaman and some other Brit, they are not dull.
That other Brit is Ian Darke, arguably the best announcer in sports. He seems to know in detail every move ever made in every match ever played, and is eager to recount them and their relevance to the game at hand, all while firing zingers out that utilize his amazing vocabulary to voice words that american announcers don't even know the meaning of (I actually heard him use the word "lugubrious" a few days ago). If only the american announcers viewed their profession as something to study and excel at. There hasn't been one who cared about the craft since Howard Cosell. Oh well!
Thanks for that info, I quite enjoyed listening to him.
