not to get too political, but I simply can't wrap my ahead around that if I moved to a foreign country that didn't speak my language, I wouldn't make every, single, possible effort to learn it. I damn sure wouldn't expect them to bend over backwards to cater to my needs, simply because I only speak English.

I don't know that that is the case here. If I moved to, say, Sweden. I would definitely make every effort to learn Swedish just to make life easier while I was there. But if they were showing a sporting event and I was given the option to have it in English I think I would definitely choose that over the Swedish option. So these radio people are taking advantage of that and opening up another means to make money. Simple capitalism, dog.

You can blame corporate america who has given spanish-speaking people an avenue to do business in spanish. There is literally zero reason for spanish speaking foreigners to learn english when everything they need is offered in Spanish.
