Pablo Alsina has a Posse Blog

GolTV's fiery Pablo Alsina has been calling games recently alongside the encyclopedic Rafa Unsein. They've started reading emails from viewers during the match, which is a great way of connecting with the fans (although Pablo refused to read my Éver Banega joke over the air on the grounds of decency, yet was only too happy to broadcast my prediction of Levante getting a point against Barcelona just seconds before Messi scored). If you can catch Pablo and Rafa doing a game live, drop them a line.

Also, Pablo has started his own blog - he's only written a couple of posts so far but it looks promising. I really enjoyed his list of 'moments I can't live without' (although I could have lived without the inclusion of Maradona slicing through the England defence). He's a friend of Hudsonia, so please go check it out and leave him a comment or something.

I heard him talking about emails then drop your name, er, pseudonym/avatar right before the Messi goal but was more confused by the whole thing than anything else. I'm probably just being a dick, but it's going to take a while before I adjust to the idea anyone but Ray doing a Barca game. Throwing an interactive element into the mix only scares and confuses me further.

If by 'encyclopedic' you mean 'boring' then you're right on. I was looking forward to Ray and Co. on that Barca match. Pablo was fun to hear but Rafa needs more color in his 'color commentary'. Just my opinion.

hey, i heard him talking about your email on the air too. I think its a great idea to read emails on the air during games.

Im an american and just recently getting into football and I'm so excited about it now. I want everyone here to love soccer as much as i do. Hudson's magisterial announcing makes each Liga game that much more entertaining, and I'm soo happy this site exists.
