To be fair, he's from ESPN Deportes, and I doubt English is his most comfortable language. Gonna put the blame on ESPN for trotting him out there.

Apparently he works for ESPN Deportes and English is his second language. Also handled the media attention pretty well, tweeted a screenshot of him googling "how to deal with fame"

ESPN made Jemele Hill publicly apologize for...accurately describing Donald Trump.

she sounded louder to me at some point later in the game - but she just has a poor speaking voice

and Sergio was pretty bad - is this the result of all the firings ESPN did?

Trump is too narcissistic to ascribe superiority to anyone beyond himself so clearly Jemele Hill was wrong and needs to apologize.

Seems like a poor assumption being that Jemele Hill said it

But it's about Trump. Classic unstoppable force vs immovable object

Bob Lee downright cringey in his DIPP rant.

Dipp didn't seem that bad IMO. Try watching the weather channel at 3:00AM when they break in the new hires right out of college, that's some cringeworthy stuff.
