Thx Espn2! (2 Viewers)

[Jer]

Thx for starting late and cutting it short.

 

[.]

Did we even get 15 minutes of racing?

 

[Alan]

I was looking at my digital guide, and it looks like there is at least another one hour show on later today.

 

[dave]

Argh.
This is typical ESPN Do you think they would do this on a nascar show. Just another example of why drag racing has a tough time growing. How can you sell to a sponsor, well you may get some tv time, but I can't be certain how much or when.

 

[none]

I wonder does arena football or whatever that was pay like NHRA does or is Glendoras ineptness showing one more time? In the meantime ESPN2 can kiss my a_s.

 

[Von Halen]

That did suck.

 

[Jer]

yea womens b-ball is on before eliminations sunday,so will be late tomorrow. They should make up the 15 min that we lost today on tnights show.

 

[willy]

Why did they even bother. I don't usually bash ESPN..but that was out of line.

It was only going to be a 1/2 hr show anyway..but to be late for arena football..then don't go the allotted time because of horse racing?

Shouldn't have even scheduled it.

 

[mike]

they were (are) a little late for the 7:00PM PDT show too...

it was pretty depressing tuning in at 7:00 and hearing Marty Reid's voice...then realising it was still the Indy car race it's making PP that much harder to listen to

Awesome deal,we got screwed on 2 out 2 programs so far this weekend,well lets just make it 3 in a row. We sure cant have women b-ball start late,god for bid. ESPN SUX.

NHRA should have an agreement that they don't have to pay for the time when this happens.

 

[sdwarf36]

I didnt realize there was an early show till too late. But I was really pissed at the nite show that all there was for P/SB was 10 seconds of congratulations to Matt Smith in small screeen-without showing even 1 run-or results!

Actually 12 point something minutes. What an insult!

 

[merc49]

Well I'll fix em! From now on I don't watch ESPN2 for qualifying or racing! And I won't use my computer anymore. From now on I'll just wait three weeks for my National Dragster. That'll fix em. Check that! I'm canceling National Dragster. I'll wait 3 months for raceday coverage to appear in Hot Rod Magazine. Yeah, that's what I'll do. They won't have me to kick around anymore.

Bob, I have 2 tickets to the 2007 Awards show if you want them!

I find this thread funny. I know I'm gonna sound like an ass but here goes. I seem to recall a few weeks ago a number of people complaning about the length of the broadcasts. In case everyone forgot, the b1tch was that the shows were too long. As I said at the time, keep it up and ESPN and NHRA will figure out that screwing us on our TV times really doesn't bother people. A 12 minute show, is that short enough?

Dave

 

[Jer]

Lol the shows arent on long enough. If they were on all day like pay per view and started on time,i would subscibe in a heartbeat over espn2.

It is a sad day for all Drag Racing fans, when arena football overrides NHRA Drag Racing. We all know if the tables we're turned, the opposite would have happened. I wonder who negotiates that or what has to happen so we can see the flipside.

That's an interesting question. I wonder if Arena Football has to pay to have their show broadcast?
