TV Coverage
 

Tell me there's something else on tv for the Preakness other than the 4:30pm start time for the NBC programming. I saw the cross promotion of including it on the Today Show by stumbling upon it on my digital schedule thingy but who knows how much and when it'll be on that. I'm confused though. No programs on ESPN's schedule? (ETA: All I've seen thus far is some SportsCentury programs on 3 TC winners. Seriously? You get more viewers from some billiards thing than Breakfast at Pimlico? Grrr. I used to get to make a whole day out of this, the under card may not be huge but geez, Preakness segments anybody? Kenny Mayne? No?)

I see NADA....Bull riding at 12 pm on ESPN classic.

What a shame, I also use to love the morning shows for the triple crown. I guess all we have is Steve's replay shows.

There isn't much to talk about except Rachel Alexandra.

If she gets ganged up on or hurt... We are in trouble.

They might as well let her take a three length lead and walk in.

You are soooo right about that.
Funny with Japan on tonite and VODKA:{>: :{>: running yet again in the Victoria mile..there is so much hype about the fillies going up against the boys here and yet it is done all the time outside the US.

Yes, the tv coverage is seriously lacking this time, guess they figure no triple crown..glad I have both HRTV and TVG.

Amen to that

The whole undercard is on Espn 360 as well as other races from HRTV.

Sadly ESPN360.com isn't available to everybody.

neither is HRTV:(

Dish Network gives you HRTV and TVG even for thier most basic monthly plan.

Direct TV will only give you TVG and you will have to pay more for it.

It's not the basic plan on dish it's the next one up,I have dish for 1 channel and one channel only. I HATE, LOATHE, DESPISE dish but it's the only way I can get HRTV and watch my home track The Fairgrounds. So I have both Direct and Dish. Wish Cox would come over this side of the Lake.

Sadly NBC is. This coverage is as pathetic as any I've seen. They don't show the 11th race even though they have 90 minutes of time. Instead dribble.

Other then people who bet, who cares about that race? They are setting up the story that actually brings in the numbers.

att u-verse offers tvg, hrtv, nfl network, nhl network, golf network, and way too many sports channels i don't care about for an extra $10/month.

if anyone wants to know what's on fox sports pittsburgh, pm me.

Sorry, but they are killing the story to death with stupid anal details that are boring for any living human.

You are on a computer.
Why cant you get it?

Do you have dialup?

And HRTV was being shown via Espn 360

ESPN 360 is not available to millions here in the NY tri state area because Cablevision does not get it.

Did they show an overhead/blimp replay of the race on the TV broadcast ?

the development we just moved to, doesn't allow dishes and verizon tv package is not in the area yet.:wf

they had a "blimp view" earlier showing you could have driven a 3 iron through the infield with little risk of hitting anyone.
