So why is it that the casual Canadian fan has no problem understanding the British announcers?

:shrug: Canadian casual fans are more knowledgable than American casual fans?
Hell, they have to put subtitles on Eric Cantona speaking ENGLISH on the Joga Bonita commericals. For that matter, I've seen them put subtitles on Sir Alex Ferguson!
