Boston, MA – In a lighthearted moment off-air, personalities from CBS Sports Golazo recently took on a linguistic challenge, attempting to mimic the distinctive Boston accent. The challenge involved pronouncing the classic phrase, "Park the car in Harvard Yard," a well-known test for those trying to emulate the regional dialect.

Marco's attempt was humorously rated with a question mark, while Grella received a "7/10 not bad but too proud of himself." Poppy's effort earned a "9/10 for effort," and Matteo's final attempt was given a perfect "10/10" with a "terminator voice" note. The playful segment offered a glimpse into the personalities behind the sports commentary, providing entertainment for their followers.
