No, I'm not saying WOW about the racing....I can't really say much about the racing as I really didn't see the whole race....I kept falling asleep
Schwantz was a great rider, no doubt about that, but he and whoever the other dude was are at the top of the heap for the "Most Boring Commentator" award. Even when the race itself is boring at least the European commentators make it SOUND like it's a 5 bike battle for the lead!
Can't wait for the races to get back on SPEED TV!

The most boring commentating I"ve ever heard for racing. The Euro guys always sound like they drank 3 red bulls before the event! The frickin USA dudes sound like they ate a few Xannax!!! LOL
There was some good racing tho, Hayden looked really good coming up form 14th to 3rd.
I thought I had the wrong channel when I saw the two commentators on CBS wearing dark sport coats thinking it was maybe golf.
Unfortunately I had the right channel and one of them was actually Schwantz...
Holy fark that was the most boring commentating I have ever heard...
I think the only time the commentators voice raised a bit was when Pedrosa crossed the checkered flag...

I watched the MotoGP.com feed this morning, it was waiting for me when I woke up
I bought it last year because I was tired of it coming on late and missing half the race due to commercials on Speed. So I got the hi-res package this year and hook up my laptop to my 52" HDTV. I have seen one CBS race and went back to the online feed.
Ha! Just posted the same thoughts: http://www.cosportbikeclub.org/forum...ad.php?t=14451
gah... I almost fell asleep watching todays race... stayed awake just HOPING for Pedrosa to l-side himself! Hey... at least Stoner is still kicking ass with point lead

It was fun watching Nicky methodically work his way up through the pack on the last half of the race. Like others, I too fell asleep to the monotone bro's. I hope the Fox guys are a little better next weekend. They are even broadcasting coverage of the qualifying on Sat. night. I dont remember that last year.
Too bad its not like NFL where you can watch the game and listen to the radio because they have better announcers. Those two did suck pretty bad.
Did CBS have there own cameras over there or was it just a video feed from the guys we usually listen too?
I'm pretty sure the commentators were just watching the feed and doing commentary.

So do you hate all Latinos or just Pedrosa and me?Originally Posted by sprtbkbabe
Be assured that a walk through the ocean of most souls would scarcely get your feet wet.
No, just short Pedrosa's, Pinky

The Mile High Mouth would have done a much better job than Schwantz and friend.
