Espn

The same old same story we always get screwed. They are going to re-air the show @ 1 p.m. sunday to little to late it is old news after NHRA race day. NHRA should choose a another network like the travel channel at least they can get programming right.

 

Some one who was working to put us with a new big sponsor said that he could not get it done and the other party noted that we always get preempted.So most of the marketing people out there know that and turn the other way when it comes to a partnership, no wonder so many Pro teams have been struggling to keep sponsors. Let's see we get preempted by college hockey tonight ,women's college basketball, college sports of any kind , yard Nome bowling, gutter surfing , rain barrel water collecting and the head idiots in Glendale can't pull their heads out long enough to see the results of this they are just happy as clams that they have us on ESPN.

This is not how you grow the sport.

 

Espn is pathetic

IT SEEMS LIKE GETTING THE SHOW ON THE AIR AT THE SCHEDULED TIME SHOULDN'T BE THAT HARD. IF YOU ARE RUNNING IT AFTER SPORTS EVENTS THAT HAVE A TENDANCY TO GO LONG, THEY SHOULD SCHEDULE SOME "INSIGNIFICANT" HALF HOUR SHOW BETWEEN THE STICK AND BALL GAME AND THE RACES. THAT WAY THE "FILLER" SHOW COULD BE PREEMPTED AND NOT AFFECT THE STARTING TIME OF THE RACE BROADCAST. HMMM..... I'M JUST A REDNECK CAR SALESMAN AND I CAN FIGURE OUT A SIMPLE SOLUTION. NOT ROCKET SCIENCE, THEY JUST HAVE TO CARE, WHICH THEY OBVIOUSLY DON'T

ESPN2 = Every Show Preempts Nhra 2bad

 

In their minds they are schedling some "INSIGNIFICANT" show. It's called NHRA Drag Racing.

Well put Clint Thompson and the other thing about ESPN REALLY that sucks they have not FIRED that BUMB ASS Paul Page.

 

The 12 year old kid that interviewed Jeggy in the pits did a better job than Paul 'pee your pants pedalfest' Page...

Frankly, Dunn isn't that much better...

Frankly, Dunn isn't that much better... That not nice now Chris. Dunn is a former racer and probably did not go to for school journalism and is doing a DAMM good job on ESPN and Mike has to always correct that JACKASS P.P.

 

Dunn is not bad, certainly not a knumbskull like PP, but he is a better driver than announcer. I'd rather see him in the seat and have a truly talented announcer, with a great knowledge of the sport as well. I'm probably asking for too much, but when you are at the track Bob Frey can spoil ya...

All things considered, it is a blessing to even have coverage, I remember only seeing Indy once a year on Wide World of Sports, and even then it was a mere segment of twenty minutes or so...
