NS!! A huge fail on NBC's part this past weekend. The race was reported to start at 6:30am on NBC yet there was nothing but news. I then set my timer for NBCS at 9:30am only to see the post-race results followed by a rerun of the race, I was livid!!
It's surprising that TX of all places had the total fail. With COTA taking racing by storm you'd think it would be a no brainer to broadcast, you know, racing there! I was in Maine for the weekend which if anything is NASCAR country and they even had it uninterrupted with great coverage.
HA! They must have got a ****-ton of emails since he responded. Doesn't the news start at like 5am anyways? And BTW, Mr. Martin, there are 3 other news channels people can watch. If the news can't be missed. I don't really understand why all these news channels air programs on the weekend for like 6 hours straight. Would have been higher if they aired it everywhere. I bet a lot of people don't realize they have NBC Sports.
Friendly reminder about the app for those with Apple products... --- For those of us on Android... ...despite the rating dropping to 2.2 I decided to download it in preparation for the race...my mistake...not only did it freeze up after about a minute (twice)...before the third freeze I discovered my cable provider isn't on the list so I can't watch live events even if the darn app worked...ugh...uninstalled.
I have both iPad and an Android phone. I never even thought of installing it on Android. It probably still makes sense to have both options.
