no, the race and post race were ok. i didn't give the rest much of a chance, turning it off within minutes of it starting. it didn't begin well, imo. but i think it's more the fault of the network wanting such a huge block of time, and not having enough horse stuff for the horse fan.
i don't watch much tv, certainly don't watch 'girlie' tv, so i had all i could handle right off the bat. i don't care about what the chick from the today show was wearing, or whoe designed it enough to stick around for her next time with the mic, nor do i care which chef from some show gets to watch the race from a suite...yawn.

but from the call for 'riders up' on, it was ok.

I thought ESPN's coverage this morning was good.
