maico79 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Hello Redskins fans, I'm Maico Pasquel from Mexico City and I don't know if there is a bigger Redskins fan in Mexico. I'm 36 and been a fan since I was 5, my father is a huge Redskin fan (he studied two years in Virginia). Anyway I go to see the Redskins play once a year, this season I took my wife for our anniversary in week 2 against the Rams and I'm also traveling for the playoffs, can´t wait and I'm very confident by the way this team is playing we'll win the playoff game at home, I don't care if its the Seahawks, Vikings or Packers. The two games they lost at home where coached to conservative and should been won, especially the Dolphins game after we had an 10-0 lead. But after hearing Shaun Mcvay and Captain Kirk (that's my fantasy's team name) talked about it seems they are way more aggressive, the eagles game showed it. I love football and I just got hired in ESPN here in Mexico as an NFL analyst for the "NFL Live" show, for those of you who have ESPN Deportes you can see the show on Saturdays. Here is a link that talks about the show. http://www.espnfrontrow.com/2015/12/espn-mexico-debuts-nfl-live-show/ See you the next 9th or 10th and "HTTR amigos" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mexaskin Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Nice story bro. I'm a first generation American in the Maldonado family out of Chihuahua, Mexico. I grew up with my parents working in the textile industry in North Carolina in the 80s. Back then it was Redskins country. The Panthers have came along but my colors don't run. HTTR!!

jflow78 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 That's awesome. Nice job and welcome to the board. We've got lots of fans from England, one from Holland, I'm not sure where else, but we can always use more brothers from around the globe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddub52 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 I love Mexico City! I had a lot of fun staying in Polanco and La Condesa. Definitely the best food I've had anywhere. I remember seeing lots of Raiders, Cowboys and Broncos gear when I was there. Though I did see some Skins gear. Congrats on the job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC9 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Congrats and welcome to ES, maico! If you have time, I'd love to read a thread about the normal NFL Sunday in Mexico with fans and what some of the favorite teams are. Also, if there are any regional affiliations, etc. I'm always interested in different cultures and how they celebrate the game we all love. Welcome, again!

maico79 Posted December 30, 2015 Author Share Posted December 30, 2015 Congrats and welcome to ES, maico! If you have time, I'd love to read a thread about the normal NFL Sunday in Mexico with fans and what some of the favorite teams are. Also, if there are any regional affiliations, etc. I'm always interested in different cultures and how they celebrate the game we all love. Welcome, again! Basically here in Mexico is full of Dallas and Steelers fans, they get at least 40 to 50% of the fan base. We are very few Redskins fans. Raiders, 49ers, Dolphins, Broncos are also popular but nos as much as Dallas and Pittsburgh. About two years ago Steelers fans opened a pub, it's funny because there are not many pubs here in Mexico City only for particular teams, specially soccer. You can go to many restaurants and bars to watch soccer, baseball and NFL games. A regular sunday for me during the NFL season is to have breakfast with the fam, then watch the pregame show and the Redskins game all the way to the Sunday Night, I always hired the Sunday Ticket so I'm able to watch all games. If you have more questions please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DogofWar1 Posted December 30, 2015 Share Posted December 30, 2015 Welcome to the board, and congrats on the job. It'll be good to have a voice in the ESPN room sympathetic to us, as the usual situation seems to be contempt more than anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maico79 Posted January 12, 2016 Author Share Posted January 12, 2016 Back in Mexico, still a little devastated by the loss, I just keep thinking "what ifs" but that's in the past. Anyway just want to mention I met some Redskins fans in the plane to DC and back to Mexico, not to many but it's nice to see there is Redskins love in Mexico. Looking forward for Scott to continue building a championship team. P.S. I hope the players feel the same pain we as Redskins fans feel so they can build on it and take it as motivation to not feel it again next season.

Maico, I hope you are enjoying your job and am glad you are a fellow Redskins fan. I go to Nuevo Vallarta once a year and was surprised to see how popular the NFL is in Mexico. Hopefully, we can help build the Redskins supporters throughout Mexico! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
