Dunlop helps DMG poke the pooch

[sturd]

All the way until Speed decides they'd rather show truck
qualifing than wait for a bunch of losers to decide to
start racing.

In-fucking-credible.

Yeah, I was pretty pissed off when they bailed on it at 3:30 EST to
show NASCAR truck racing. Shows where bike racing rates here in the US
because you can fuckin'A well bet they would not switch coverage from
the Daytona 500 for "scheduled programming" due to a delay.
Any news on when they might carry the rest of the race or is it a case
of we'll "see it in the funny papers"?

I believe they aired the finish later in the evening. Probably
replacing one of the SBK races. Or perhaps they took over the slot for
one of the "Paid Programming" broadcasts? Either way, I probably won't
have it on my DVR because SpeedTV and DirecTV can't get their shit
together enough to list the races properly in the guide!

I'm so fed up with SpeedTV and AMA / DMG!!

They hype this race up so much and cut to not just Nascar... or Nascar
truck series... but Nascar truck series QUALIFYING!!! WTF?!?! Why
didn't it even surprise me?

Looks like they showed the rest of the race at 11:00 EST, but I was
out at my baby sisiter's 41st lbirthday shindig and missed it. FWIW,
the AMA facebook site sort of complained in an around-about fashioned
about the Speed coverage lapse, responding to a comment by a viewer
about it that "We desperately wanted that TV time...." It was
delivered more as an apology for the length of the red flag eating up
all the TV time, but I have to believe they are pissed that Speed cut
away, especially given what they cut away FOR, as you cite above.

I definitely think both AMA and SpeedTV screwed up! I'm not sure how
they think they are going to attract new viewers with this type of
shit. They've gotta start taking screw ups like this seriously and
come up with plans to avoid doing it again in the future.

My suggestion is to LET THEM RACE!!!
