WOW! 

That coverage sucked.

Too bad those of us who have to watch it from home, have to endure the same pain with the Indy coverage.

NBC was 10 times better and NBC sucked. Made the whole race look boring, 70% commercials. Give me Speed any day.

I loved Greg White's explanation of the "massive" carbon fiber swingarm on Stoner's Ducati. Tongue It keeps the wheel all lined up... bet you didn't know that. Roll Eyes My friend watching the race with me said they must be dumbing it down for all the Grandmothers that normally watch NASCAR.

I don't get it. White used to do a pretty decent job with his Two Wheel Tuesday show on Speed. When did he start taking all the stupid pills?

My favorite part was, Casey seems to be sticking that left foot out, WHY?......silence for about 5 seconds......

I thought they went to Carbon Fiber to get the bike to start flexing a bit more than the steel trellis frame. And man did that thing wobble come of every single line.

Maybe if the commentator took the dip out of his lip we could understand what he was saying.

Yes, that coverage sucked.

I think I'm going to get a MotoGP.com subscription instead so that I don't end up shooting myself on August 30 when they do Indy.

I couldn't help thinking the whole time that the guy sounded like a boxer—was he in a bad accident once (without a helmet) or what?

Thank God we still have F1 with Varsha, Hobbs, Matchett & Windsor!

Whenever the announcer says "Spaniard," take a shot!

something like that:

Scott Russell Crash

either way, diffey/russell is lightyears better than shaheen/spencer.

aside from the greg white swingarm incident, it was pretty decent coverage.
