not that you shouldn't do that :), but the Dorna cameras still aren't HD even if you can watch the broadcast on an HD channel.

"As you may have noticed these cars have two wheels. They are actually called motorcycles. You may have also noticed they can make right and left hand turns on these two wheeled motorcycles, not just left. Sometimes the riders crash but because they have very sophisticated safety equipment called helmets they are usually ok. These motorcycles can go very fast and have breaks and . . ." [bang]
Do they really think that the general public is going to be more interested in racing because Greg is spoon feeding this crap?
I will add that I'm just glad the races are actually on tv and glad I can get the times here on the DMF. [clap]
SIDE BY SIDE!
My local affilate again ran informercials and put the race on at 1:30 am. Why does CBS let the affiliates do this? If the affiliates are going to blow it off, why not leave it on Speed.
Of course I could write a nasty-gram to WJZ-TV and inquire about the wisdom of such a move. Surely an informercial doesnt get more ratings than a MotoGP race. Unless the local affliates are coluding together to not put on anything that would draw viewers away from the afternoon Olympic coverage since Michael Phelps is a local boy.
See how I blamed Michael Phelps for make the beast with two backsing me over on Moto GP coverage.
