I’m learning Spanish, and I’m getting decent at reading it but I’m trying to immerse myself in it more since I still can’t understand it very well. so I was wondering if I could find something I really enjoy like football and watch it in Spanish. I know the NFL probably has a Spanish football channel but I like college football over the NFL and I would prefer to watch a local Spanish team play and possibly become a fan of that team and follow it.

So if American football is played in a Spanish speaking country can I watch it online somehow and also can I have some suggestions on what team would be fun to watch?

If not football I know they play basketball over there so I’ll take some suggestions for that as well if anyone is interested.

Thank you!

    American football is, well, American… In Argentina we play Rugby, which is not entirely different as far as I understand.

      It’s same, but different, but same. But different.

        It’s like american football, but there are no “downs”, there’s less protective equipment and you aren’t allowed to throw forward

          My US town just got its first adult recreational rugby league and I’m kind of excited to see when their games are. Don’t know anyone in the league, but hey. It’s something to do.
