You manage to balance agitation with just enough salient points to keep things interesting. Kind of a low-rent DG_Now.

Well, funny how slapping 'Los' in front of a team name makes it 'fiesta'. Maybe if it was the actual Spanish words for Suns and Spurs:

Los Soles

Los Espeulas

FIESTA!!!

The difference here is that team names are brand names that technically do not translate to other languages.

Actually, that's incorrect. Recently, the San Francisco Giants wore a jersey that said 'Gigantes' across the front. Also, the Brewers became the 'Cerveceros' and the Rangers became the 'Rangeros.'

Engine, Engine, Number Nine, on the New York transit line,

If my train goes off the track, pick it up! Pick it up! Pick it up!

Back on the scene, crispy and clean,

You can try, but then why, 'cause you can't intervene.

I think he means that in Spanish speaking countries, the Suns and Spurs (and all NBA teams) are referred to as "Suns" and "Spurs". Those names are not translated into Spanish equivalents, hence you add the "Los" for "the" when referring to those teams.
