So far so good. My cable company didn’t have SPEED and I was able to watch the first NASCAR truck race I’ve seen in a while as well as practice and qualifying etc.

I’m watching the college football preview show. Not bad at all.

Screw espn into the ground, and then some. Even better it it negatively affects the two radio morons in the morning - the steroid addled dumbschitt from ND and the dainty loser from NW.

One thing about these sports channels, they open up a lot of job opportunities for blonde chicks.

I know that on their FIRST day they screwed up my weekend. it looks like there will be no MOTO GP this week. Time trials today on tape and no MOTO GP race scheduled at all MOTO 2 and 3 but No GP.
FU Fox Sports 1 and 2 and what ever.

You mean the Yankees Red Sox network?
They carried a Detroit Tigers game last year and showed a camera shot of the Ambassador bridge and called it the Golden Gate bridge. Then they spent the rest of the game talking about the Yankees and Red Sox.

My belief is Fox will try to out-ESPN ESPN, and when combined with their usual trashy and sensationalistic production values (FOX NEWS ALERT!!!!! anyone?) will make for unwatchable TV. I like my sports and sports highlights relatively snark free, call me old-fashioned, and I might actually watch a little more if I didn’t have to deal with some self-important twit over-dramatizing everything.

All I know is that NBC Sports now has the English Premier League, and it’s awesome...I can watch every game from my computer.

With ESPN carrying the NFL and the NBA I doubt Fox Sports will be able to make a dent in their ratings. However, the way to kill ESPN would be to make a push for NBC's expiring NHL contract that is coming up soon and then pay through the nose for either the NFL or the NBA when those contracts are up. I hope ESPN goes under, last night I was driving home listening to Outside the Lines and they did a special on Russia, the Olympics and gay rights abuse, I immediately turned off the radio in disgust.

Fox Sports 1 seems to be going for the non-homo audience.
