I’m learning Spanish, and I’m getting decent at reading it but I’m trying to immerse myself in it more since I still can’t understand it very well. so I was wondering if I could find something I really enjoy like football and watch it in Spanish. I know the NFL probably has a Spanish football channel but I like college football over the NFL and I would prefer to watch a local Spanish team play and possibly become a fan of that team and follow it.
So if American football is played in a Spanish speaking country can I watch it online somehow and also can I have some suggestions on what team would be fun to watch?
If not football I know they play basketball over there so I’ll take some suggestions for that as well if anyone is interested.
Thank you!
I think that their point is that it’s not popular enough to be broadcasted on TV (with exception). In my European city, there is an American football club (just checked), so if I want to play, and I have no doubt that there is a competitive league (almost every sport has it). However, just like 95% of the sport it’s not broadcasted on TV (Well may-be in the middle of the night on Eurosport, that channel even broadcasts competitive fishing) so people don’t hear about it (But most sport aren’t really massively popular beside football/tennis/rugby/cycling/formula 1. The rest you hear at best during the olympics or specialized media)
You think right. That’s essentially what I was trying to say. To amplify, there’s also going to be almost no opportunity to use any vocabulary learned watching American football. You’d be like that weirdo who can’t shut up about rugby.
