The fox commentary is awful throughout. They sent in the backups once the US didn't qualify, since they knew less people would watch overall. But yeah, those two in particular were incredibly bad. I felt like I was listening to two drunk guys at the bar.
I watched it on demand later since it decided not to record, and at one point I assumed I must have picked the Mexico announcers feed, like they have for all those ticket games (nfl Sunday ticket, center ice, etc you can pick from two feeds for most games, one with each local announcer team). I'm routing for Mexico anyway so I didn't mind that part, just their general incompetence.
