Mexico needs to win on Saturday. I already started talking all sorts of loads of shite to my Chilean friends, sending them all sorts of memes and foolishness. I might have drank a little too much. Por favor, Osorio, no hagas tus pendejadas.

Univision numbers have been huge:

- Univision leading the way in Copa America TV ratings with FOX Sports trailing behind
After the first week of Copa America Centenario matches, the TV ratings show a clear winner in the United States with Univision averaging 2.8 million viewers per game compared to FOX Sports, which is averaging 831,100 viewers per game on FOX Sports 1 (and an average of 716,417 when combined with FOX Sports 2 ratings).

It’s no surprise that Univision is leading the pack given that the tournament features mostly Latin teams that are more appealing to a Spanish-language audience. Plus, Univision has the advantage of featuring more games on its over-the-air network while FOX Sports has preferred to feature most of the games on FOX Sports 1 (presumably in an attempt to boost the network’s fledgling TV ratings).

Also, not surprisingly, Mexico is leading the way with larger viewing audiences (and attendances) at games played thus far. In fact, more people are watching USA games on Univision than they are on FOX Sports 1, which is quite telling.

Two things, though: 1) As that article points out, Univision is stealing a lot of Copa America viewers from FS1, and 2) I'm pretty sure ESPN is in more households than FS1.

Stealing? Or better programming and a dedicated hispanic base of viewership. Also fs1 sucks.

I like my announcers getting hype like me when Mexico scores so it's Univision for me. FS1 isn't bad though. I liked how Landon Donovan kept it pretty real when speaking about players and the game commentating last nights Argentina game.

Extra times are rarely exciting or impactful because the players are already gassed and can barely hold a play at that point anyway.

US - Ecuador tonight at 6:30pm PT.

Yedlin is out because of his bonehead red card, and it looks like Orozco will probably take his place with the rest of the US lineup remaining the same.
Players carrying a yellow card for the US: Orozco, Brooks, Johnson, Michael Bradley, Bobby Wood, Jermaine Jones and Alejandro Bedoya. If any of those players earn a yellow card on Thursday, they would be suspended for the semifinal if the U.S. advances to that round.
