Who ever was in charge of that national tv deal really screwed it up. Running like it should tonight.

Feel bad for the people who could not watch it on Flo for whatever reason. However, was glad to see it was no longer on MAV TV. Their coverage of the last five main events every year was longer than the annual Jerry Lewis telethons.

I get to "complain" this year (it really didn't bother me; just figured I'd represent those that do not think it has to end in the 9pm hour)...Mid-afternoon, I confirmed my local corner pub (a "race bar") had coverage (amazing! Pretty neat, even though I don't have/make time to go to many, they have a LOT of short track races - 95% pavement Late Models; but that's ok - on at the place: Crazy Times Pub & Grub in Machesney Park), and I hoped to patronize the establishment later in the day; once I completed other tasks and was set to make time to watch at least the A-main. Thankfully, before I headed that way, I was able to check results on the phone, and I was shocked it was over that early!!! My night woulda worked out for viewing around the recent standard 11:25pm cst time slot. Oh well. Good for those in Tulsa, they got to leave early (imagine many stuck around later though anyway). The early end cost the joint I was gonna support about $7 (lol) though...(the price of the two beers I mighta had...).
But really, why didn't they work the track this year? I feel that is what took the most time.

The same debate is going on about the football game that was on last night, and I'm ok with it being on whatever its on, BUT, I certainly think there is a better chance to attract new viewers; if its smthn that they might find flipping channels (which I know is rare these days; and not everyone has Mav. But I am very curious, do more people have Mav or FLO? In regards to the football game, I guess 30m have Peacock. Which is kinda low...certainly lower than regular TV channels...at this time anyways...I'd suspect for awhile...)

Flo is well worth it at $159/yr. I watch several events a year on there. It’s better than old TV coverage that condenses stuff into short time slots and shows to a fraction of what’s going on. I was at the track all week and still used it, then got back home and watched my guys today on the big screen.
