    WSBK broadcasting

    For all you xenophobic, chauvinist types - Al Jazeera to broadcast WSBK in the US!

    http://www.superbikeplanet.com/2013/Feb/130219d.htm

    That is the rumor anyway.

    How do you reconcile your desire to watch racing with your near certainty that Al Jazeera is plotting the downfall of western civilization? Discuss.

    Note that it is in the Sports Pack. I just added that for $11/month. More than I wanted to pay but there are a few other channels in there that I might watch.

    How about we just go over to Dirk's and watch it on his screen. We can each bring $1 to offset the cost of the sports pack and he can provide the PBR and salted peanuts. Sounds win-win to me. How many people can your bar/viewing area hold Dirk?

    Yeah, I think it includes a bunch of that stuff but I didn't pay very close attention to it.

    Re: WSBK broadcasting

    Racing season might very well suck this year, if they're not broadcasting it. I guess I missed the WSB opener last weekend. I might end up dumping my cable if I can't get it for a reasonable cost. SPEED's coverage of F1, WSB, and MotoGP was the ONLY reason I got cable......

    BEIN Sport is my new favorite place. I could care less that it's not in HD so long as they stay commercial-free.

    Nope. It's in a 16:9 format, but shrunk on the screen and there is no HD offering of bein for Comcast in NE Denver it would seem.

    At this point, beggars can't be choosers. I'll take it.
