    2005 MX Season

    by casedit » Thu May 26, 2005 6:17 am

    I had this in the pro race forum but that gets no audience.

    I just added the OLN network to my cable plan to get the 05 MX season (4.95/mo + 9 other sport channels). Anyone else notice that Hangtown should air this sat. at 3pm but is incorrectly labeled as Supermoto? The only other hangtown airing is next thurs, but that's supposed to be the 125 class... anyone confirmed this?

    ALSO: if you're like me, you don't read any MX news during the week so you don't ruin finding out who won before you watch it on TV - SO PLEASE DON'T POST THE WINNERS AND RUIN IT FOR THE REST OF US

    THANKS!!

    3pm sat for 250 and next thurs is 125's. Crappy coverage schedule. But I guess we should not complain too loud...at least its on!!

    i noticed the same thing in tivo (tivo rocks btw when all motocross is on at 2am) i'm not sure i actually have it ready to record.

    glad someone is covering it...too bad this sport isn't more popular than spelling bee, pool, or bowling. these seem to be on espn every night!

    Anybody know when it will come on again? I was busy working and forgot to record it.

    Ya I made sure to email OLN and tell them of there mess up with the "supermoto" coverage. If only they realized how many viewers they just lost because of there mistake..

    Once again MX season comes and the schedule is jacked within the first week. We could make a huge party of the races one day, but we would most likely end up watching the championships of checkers with 35 people in attendance.

    Why have live coverage of a sx with 70k or a mx race with 20k in attendance when u can have a high school basketball game on 5 times in one week with the homecoming commitee watching it live...

    exactly...i don't understand what's wrong with OLN, ESPN, and Speed Channel. seriously, the other stuff i see on these channels leaves me scratching the hat rack.

    someday perhaps we'll see live coverage or at least same day coverage. what can i say, i'm a dreamer.

    If ESPN2 can show the lumberjack championships and make money. I would think that sameday coverage/ Live of Motocross would be within reach. And still just as profitable. I agree 100% saturday ( 05/28 ) I just happened to click on the supermoto when it started and was surprised to see the race. It makes trying to find the races a royale pain in the a@@. Did anyone get a response from OLN?
