Doesn't surprise me at all. Naturally I was a bit miffed but not surprised. At least they did re-broadcast the last two laps.

re-broadcast.... ahh blah....

They rebroadcast the last laps? Dang it, I got so mad I switched the channel, when I put it back on they were talking to Kyle. Why can't somebody else do the races besides ESPN.

Do they have the races for the rest of the year?

[3fanforever]

Nope. ABC takes over on Sept. 9 at Richmond for the rest of the year.
But ABC and ESPN seem to be one in the same.

[jks812]

Well shoot. Maybe they'll do alittle better. I just don't like ESPN.

They are one in the same. Both are owns by Walt Disney Co. See following link:

hey folks, this wasn't ESPN's fault! what I heard was there were some little boy Martians who were playing with their BB guns (these are not city boy Martians, but country boys), they took a shot at the satellite and hit a reflector or something. when they saw they broke it they ran like scared little boys do when they know they're in trouble. luckily a friendly sort happened along and saw what had happened and got it fixed before we turned the SDI on them.

Oh well that explains it all. So sorry ESPN for thinking ya'll are a bunch of morons.

[LSC9901]

I don't want to defend ESPN but Jerry Punch did say that they had lost the satellite feed. Good or bad excuse I don't know. I suppose it could be the truth.

[jks812]

I didn't know that, I switched channels when it went out.

some dummy must have tripped over the extension cord pluged into the satalite.
