Absolutely disgusting. I know that there are things that need to be taken into consideration but it clearly was a cluster f--- when this plan hit the ground. "World Class" "For the Fans" what a total disappointment!  |
Obvioulsy, I was not in a position to see the actual broadcast. However, I have to disagree with the argument it should be live coast-to-coast. The Saturday afternoon time slot is much stronger than the morning.... regardless of the coast. I know die-hard fans will get up at 4am to watch F1 from Dubai or something... but ABC Sports at 1:30PM is a plus.. on EITHER coast.
