Espanol on ABC?

Submitted by tmotts62 on

I'm not normally one to start threads, but can think of no other place to ask this question.  I'm in Texas (Grapevine), watching UCLA v AZ on ABC, and the commentary is the Spanish language feed.  Everything else (commercials, graphics, etc) is in English.  Sorry if this was covered in the night game thread, but is anyone else getting the espnaol feed?  Or know why ABC is broadcasting the espanol feed?

...the SAP setting on your TV.

 

[Edit: Sorry that didn't help.  What's a good off the beat track place to eat in Dallas?  Gonna be back and forth to there for work for a couple months]

On where you're going to be.  "Dallas" is a huge place, and folks use it to describe a lot of different areas.  But in general, you should try:

Hard 8 BBQ in Coppell.  Not as good as Austin joints, but best in DFW IMHO.  Note -- proclaiming a "best BBQ" anywhere (either side of Mason-Dixon) is inviting open warfare and negs, but that's the best I've had in DFW.  The onion rings are ethereal.

Bob's Steak House -- if you're on expense account, there's one in Dallas (Highland Park area) and one in Grapevine, there's lot's of great steakhouses but Bob's is best in my book.

Ojeda's Mexican on Maple -- great Tex-Mex at a family-owned joint.  Javier's in Highland Park is also great.

Motor and Maple Burger -- great burgers, also try Twisted Root in Deep Ellum.

Flying Fish in Preston Hollow -- love this place although it's basically a bunch of fried food; kids love the ambience and photos on the walls.

There's a billion other places, but again, depends on where you're going to be.  If you're a foodie, there's a lot worse places than DFW to be.

If it is indeed that first thing, make sure you're not also watching Cinemax by mistake. It's rather common - so I am told - to confuse a long, grinding drive with Cinemax late night programming. Granted, the language in which it being broadcast may not matter so much if that's what you would prefer, but if you're looking for football, definitely follow some of the advice in this thread.

I've tried to watch game when they've had feeds in both English and Spanish running simultaneously. Of course the only way to watch then is w/o audio. But seeing you're in TX if this happens again, just tune into a radio station and mute the T.V.

Could it be a technical issue at WFAA (which I presume is the ABC affiliate you tried to watch it on)? Have you asked other people in your area if they also had it in Spanish?
