I hope they slack off on the commercials...TNT didnt do a very good job!... we deserve better coverage if we cant go to the race ourselves!

Hey, when their shelling out the money they have to for the rights to NASCAR racing, you have to expect plenty of commercials. I know you hate them, but somebody has to pay the freight.
I think overall they actually do a pretty good job of covering most races, but there are gliches at times.

I said it before, and I'll say it again..........
Back in the day, TBS, ESPN, and TNN (now Spike TV) used to be the bomb!! EVERYONE else sucked. Now that ESPN has had some time off, they should have been watching the other's broadcasts to keep up with the time, instead of playing Rock,Paper, Scissors, showing spelling bee's or playing 3 year old poker games. I, personally, think ESPN's current coverage sucks worse than TNT and NBC COMBINED!!!! If they get on the ball, listen to the fans, maybe they can reclaim some of their former glory.

Man the ESPN coverage of the BUSCH series is PAINFULL to watch. I'm not looking forward to the CUP coverage coming up. Wallace and Punch are the only people keeping me from buying a satelite radio and muting the TV. I don't know the guy who does the "Cut away Car" but he is looking like the Joker from the first batman movie.

The only good thing about TNT was Kyle Petty. Thank goodness their time is over. I hope ESPN does a better job.

I hate to say this, but it's not going to get any better. We can all thank Brian france for this. The huge TV deal he signed cost all three networks so much commercial time is the only way they can stay in the black. I hate it as much as anybody. Another example of France caring far more about revenue than we fans.

The filthy-rich cockroaches that almost own our souls(thanks to our interest and allegiance to our drivers) can now go to hell. I am now free of my addiction,I am going to take my best saddle horse out to the ranch and move some cows.I have my life back,thanks to the greed of the FRANCE family.If they had only made it less annoying to stay on the couch instead of getting up and saddling my horse.They can now go to hell.I'll watch again when it doesn't have 80% commercials.

At least we'll have commentators like Jerry Punch and Rusty Wallace.I thought Kyle Petty did a good job on TNT.But I never understood the last few years why they ever hired Wally Dallenbach.

After their attempt, the Cooking Chanel would even do a better job broadcasting.

And have you been watching the Busch races this year?? It's gonna be hell. Fox needs to carry the NASCAR races all season long.
