Thanx. I will set the DVR for that.
Racing-Underground.com is a good back-up. Who's ever broadcast they use sure beats the Speed channel.

Thanks for the reminder.  Hopefully my Tivo season pass will catch it.

a season pass won't, unless you have one set for CBS also.  wishlist may, but i'd program it directly if i were you.

you're correct. season passes are channel specific and won't pick up a program on another channel.

a wishlist for "motogp" should pick it up depending on how they tag it.

Thanks for the Tivo tips.  I actually have both a season pass and keyword wishlist set up.  If Tivo misses one damn race it would be a miracle.  Cool

Kevin Schwantz - great racer, shit announcer

Greg White - should be pregnant dog-slapped before his be-heading. He annoys me more than Sam Posey, and I never thought that would be possible

Yes!

Coverage sucked as well.  They cut out 9 laps over 2 commercials...about 30% of the race.  Roll Eyes  We all got to try and answer the "Honda Trivia Question" though.  bang head

When will the local networks figure out that MotoGP isn't a 3 hour long Nascrap or baseball/football event? Show the friggin' race, and enough with the fluff!!!!

Pretty good race though.  waytogo

+1

Kevin Schwantz = proof that knowledge does not equal broadcasting power.  Blandest Color man ever.

Greg White = failed WWE announcer does racing.  TERRIBLE and who the make the beast with two backs decided that voice passed muster?  That boy has a voice for newspapers not broadcasting.

i watched the race on motogp.com this morning, but i just had to watch the cbs coverage to see if it was as bad as you guys are making it out to be.

all in all, it's better than the last two years.

i think that's the problem. you guys are comparing them to moody/ryder or harris/roberts. you could've been stuck with shaheen/spencer!  Grin

if you guys want to watch the whole race interruption/commercial free, you should really get a motogp.com subscription.

you probably saw as much of the race as you would've on speed.

schwantz as "ok", cept he sounded like he was reading prepared cuecards the whole time and he had to play off of white's shitty lines.

white needs to pack it in.  Misprounouncing peoples names, screaming "side by side" anytime there was a pass.

After today (and 2 more rounds to go Roll Eyes), mags has approved the HD Pass for next years budget Grin
