    Bit the bullet for beIN Sport channel

    I got it for $10/mo with some other stuff, and 10 channels of free HBO for 3 months, and I can drop it at any time (i.e. after WSB season), so if that's what I've gotta do, it's done. Sux, but.......fuck the NASCRAP channel!

    I did it too. Couldn't stand it anymore. There was a void in my life.

    Re: Bit the bullet for beIN Sport channel

    Didn't someone say every SBK race will be streaming live for free on bein's website?

    the other issue is it says all over "streaming live at (insert time and day)", but there's never a damn link on their site to watch it

    Only problem with the live streaming/web is it's broadcast at like 04:00 am. Love the DVR.

    Probably gonna watch the coverage tonight after work. I'll gove my impression.

    On a funny note, when I ordered it, the guy told me beIN Sports was channel 312. So, I go there.....and it's in Spanish.......Doh! Well, I surfed around a little, and there's about 10 channels in English that are duplicated in Spanish. Whew! If I couldn't have found the english version I'd have cancelled my subscription.

    Review of the coverage coming soon.....

    hahaha funny how some soccer games followed that replay of the races... Jonathan Rea had some sick passes on that chicane though on race 1, he passed both Laverty and Guintoli in the same area and with the same move. Freakin guy just sling shot through that bitch haha... It was a pretty awesome race, then on the 2nd race Laverty giving Sykes a run for his money right there and managed to win it at the last few laps of the race, Sykes dominated the 1st race, where it got exciting on the 1st race was the battle for 2nd/3rd/4th between Laverty, Rea and Guintoli. Sykes Kawi was loosing all kind of traction, they showed a few turns from Laverty's bike and you could see that thing sliding everywhere lol.

    Yes but football "season" never ends from a global perspective. Besides, they only take 6 weeks off.

    Re: Bit the bullet for beIN Sport channel

    Ok, so, I gotta say BeIN sports channels coverage of WSB is great. You get all the races, a bunch of pre-race stuff, between race stuff, and after race stuff. How motorcycle racing coverage should be, if not near as extensive as NASCRAP coverage here is. And, the quality of the audio and video is very good. There is a major downside though: At least on Comcast, it's broadcast as one huge 4-1/2hr to 5hr block, with the first Superbike race, then Supersport (600cc), then Superstock (1000cc), then the second Superbike race. This makes it difficult to watch one or the other (or fast forward ALLLLLLL the way to the second WSB race), and near impossible for people who, like me, ALSO permanently record racing on a DVD-RW player. Hmmmmm, now to try and figure a solution for that, dammit! I'm going to cancel just as soon as racing season is over, but for now, I like it.

    Slow guy in the hall today kept trying to get out of my way as I tried to pass without crashing into him. I said, "I don't follow NASCAR", as I finally was able to get by.

    Re: Bit the bullet for beIN Sport channel

    FYI

    Ok, so, what BeIN sports does is rebroadcast the WSB races a few days later, in this case, Thursday (I'll see if it's consistent and post). What they do is then bunch the 2 WSB races into a 2-hr segment. So, for people like me that permanently record it, it's WAY easier now, and you can watch the 2 races back to back without having to FFW thru the 2 other (Supersport and Superstock) races to get to the second WSB race.

    Re: Bit the bullet for beIN Sport channel

    Shit, the Supersport races have been the most entertaining races of the year! Well except Sam Lowes 11 second domination last weekend. Monza had 4 red flag's, with the second red flag after the first-fourth place riders all went down in the same chicane!
