Can't stand him. He's sooooo over the top with every goal it is absurd.

I used to think that too but after I saw the thing where he went to visit Camp Nou for the first time I realized he's actually just a massive soccer fan. Dude just really loves the sport, not just Barca, he freaks out any time there is a good play even if it's against Barca which is clearly his team.

Definitely over the top some times, but the guy genuinely is obsessed with soccer, which is more than you can say for a lot of commentators.

I've always loved Ray Hudson. It isn't an act or a show, that's just how he is.

I remember him calling a friendly match that took place at Levi's Stadium in SF, and he was about to tell a story about a trip he took to Napa wine country with George Best, and Phil Shoen cut him off to list off some sort of stat about the actual match, and when Phil tried to steer it back Ray refused to tell the story. Phil was begging him, but Ray was like nah. That was like 5 years ago and I still remember it. Was such a funny moment. Phil deserved it lol.

Yeah I met him a couple of times when he was DC United’s coach. Just a generally energetic guy. I like him & Schoen as commentators on BeIn.

Yeah I mean don’t get me wrong, he’s definitely a bit much sometimes and some of the stuff he says is over the top, but I always just think about that video of him seeing Camp Nou for the first time and he’s literally just crying.

Most English commentators are so bland and boring, then you have Martin Tyler possibly falling asleep mid-game. Still a few good ones of course but a lot of them are pretty meh.

Like, Ray is just a massive soccer fan who gets to commentate his favorite sport (and favorite team) for a living. Dude is just out here living his dream.
