ESPN TV Coverage

[POINTGIVEN1985]

i think the san felipe will be live, but im not sure

[SOREHOOF]

It will be live if something more important, such as a Cuban league baseball game , womens college hockey, 2003 Hold'em replay, dog show, or anything else ESPN wants to shove down our throats is running over. Thier coverage of Horseracing couldn't be much worse. You would think with the Breeders Cup in thier pocket they would promote The Sport of Kings at least half as shamelessly as they promote Dancing with the Stars or any other crap on ABC as they did during Football broadcasts. I can't get TVG or HRTV but they have to be a BIG step up from how ESPN treats Horseracing. This is not a Knock on the commentaters.BTW Commentator worked out in FLA the other day.

3-16-07 Palm Meadows track fast 3f 38.80 Breezing. I was at the Whitney when he beat Saint Liam, had him to win. Had him and Pomeroy in the Ex at the Forego, should have backed it up with a win I guess. Live and learn.

i was there also and i had him huge, 3-1 i think saint liam was 3-5 i think not positive maybe commentator was 5-2, but i had him and i have loved him ever since

3-1, Pink is not a racehorse color. I can't believe they changed jockeys after getting beat that day. They should have changed silks. I'm not knocking HOY RIP.

It's always been this way with ESPN, we're lucky that the NCAA hoops are on CBS or thoroughbred racing
would be nowhere to be found on ESPN for the rest of the month.

5 channels showing Poker. Some of it is years old. I like poker, but watching other people play is pretty boring. I'd just about kill for TVG or HGTV, but I won't get a dish.

What's next for ESPN? Championship Celebrity Toenail clipping? It would probably pre-emt the Breeders Cup.

One time they had on "on-line" road skating from Philadelphia...what a joke!
