Awful Announcing
Ben Strauss of The Washington Post reported that Fox was set to only have a limited in-country presence in Qatar until a Qatar Airways sponsorship. Fox disputes Strauss' report when it comes to the detail of comped flights.
"They don’t come to us expecting us to be [HBO’s] Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel, or [ESPN’s] E: 60. That’s not who we pretend to be, and I don’t think that’s what the viewer expectation is.”
"...had no idea it was frowned upon, people had me nervous like i was going to jail."
John Strong and Stu Holden will again be Fox's lead match commentary team. Other pairings include JP Dellacamera and Cobi Jones, Derek Rae and Aly Wagner, Ian Darke and Landon Donovan, and Jacqui Oatley and Warren Barton.
