They're out of excuses for their piss poor coverage, they've had three years to get their act together. It's time for NASCAR to give FOX and TNT exclusive broadcast rights.

I'll tally up the score later. Getting ready for some hockey!

I watched the race on ABC. Not ESPN.

Here are the standings after Charlotte by my count:

huntr1 - 785 + 45 = 830
OHG - 735 + 55 = 790
Homedpt - 750 + 30 = 780
Gumbo - 720 + 55 = 775
clevalley - 710 + 45 = 755
Dippy - 610 + 55 = 665
Nacho - 585 + 30 = 615
Toppick - 450 + 20 = 470

Big mover for the week is OHG. Passes HD for 2nd.

ESPN produces it. Hence the name "ESPN on ABC".

Still, the coverage was horrendous.

Ah. Never saw/heard that. I was watching the race off and on while working on the computer in the other room.

Allright I was down in Charlottesville all weekend and didnt even know the race was Saturday night, watched the Capitals instead on way home today I hit 93.3 up to listen to race no race, instead listen to the sorry Redskins. Just now logged on to Nascar website to get results. Your next in my sight huntr1

I knew ABC owns ESPN. I thought Dippy was saying he watched the race ON ESPN when I was watching it on ABC. Which is what had me What he meant was that he watched a brodcast on ABC that was BRANDED ESPN.

I would've said Disney but I didn't want people thinking I was hating on Mickey Mouse

It doesn't matter what network they throw it on, whether it's ESPN, ABC, ESPN2, ESPN Classic, ESPN360 or ESPN The Ocho, their coverage sucks.

I guarantee you could give me a microphone and I could do a better job announcing a race than Doc. He's a good guy, and a great pit reporter, but he's a terrible play by play announcer. Worse than Weber, worse than Todd Harris, worse than Dumbel!
