Totally agree...Bad ass programming for sure. Hopefully they keep the formatting the way it is and not F up the station; a la MTV, etc... or become Fox Sports 3 :::shivers:::

Dave, you should check out "Full Custom Garage" on Fridays, this guy is AMAZING, builds everything from scratch, a true craftsman.

It was deep sand,posts everywhere and even the oldschool half buried goodyear to snag a peg.

Took me back to 1975 and breaking the front fender off my Yamaha with my chin when pedal and peg stuck in a tire like that.

You wont get close to one again.

I think I would love MAVtv also. . . but their coverage is so shitty in my area that none of the major carriers offer that channel in my neighborhood. I've submitted about 14 times to have it added but I have a feeling any requests go straight to the trash can. . . I HATE that MX is on that channel because barely anyone gets it.

My frustration is geared toward whoever made the decision to put it on that channel (DC???) and Uverse for not carrying that channel.

I seriously want to see what the ratings are this year compared to last year. They HAVE to be much lower.

On a side note, the MOTO's that I have gotten to see, have been great. I like the tracks, the broadcast and the goPro live cam.

F that. Even if the programming is porn stars riding dirt bikes 100% of the time, if it's not in HD, I'm not watching it. This isn't 2004. Get with it. There are hundreds (thousands?) of other channels in HD, so I don't want to hear "talk to your provider". They obviously aren't choosing to display this channel in SD. Money is being exchanged somewhere and not enough to get it in HD.

It's a step backwards for MX and just increases the disparity between SX and MX. I haven't watched more than 1/2 a moto this year. The streaming via Flash is also 2005 technology. I have a "smart" tv and it doesn't use ancient technology like Flash. Just a complete failure on someones part. I'm not complaining about the racing, but the broadcast isn't even on par with cartoons at this point.

It's awesome to have Dave Despain and his interviews back on ANY channel. If you haven't watched any of the interviews, DVR them. Dave covers all forms of racing and really gets the riders/drivers to open up.

How about the crazy ass ice racers with the 2" spikes, lay that bitch over dragging the bars at 50mph!!!

Some real spoiled asses here also "if it ain't HD I ain't watching"?
I go by "if it ain't broke don't replace it".

Look, stop telling me to call my cable provider. They know what good business is. They're making FAR more money than you, me or Lucas Oil. There's been a negotiation that happened. My guess is it went something like this:

MavTV: We'd like you, Directv, to carry MavTv

Directv: Okay, how much do you want to pay us?

MavTV: Pay you? We'd like you to pay us $500k.

Directv: You're kidding right?

MavTV: Our channel is awesome. We're going to have AT LEAST 150 people watching on Saturday, as long as football, baseball, basketball, hockey, soccer, poker, hunting, fishing, darts, battle robots or any other legitimate sport isn't on. We'll prove it to you... We'll buy a small sliver of your bandwidth, show an SD stream and just watch the cash roll in.

Directv: Ok, we'll start working on the next channel to fill your space when you're gone next year.

MavTV: Great! Just forward all the emails you're about to get about our shitty looking broadcast to trashcan@mavtv.com.

I'll be the twat bumping this thread in a couple of years when MavTV is dead and gone. Hopefully they don't take professional MX with them.

I think the way this works is all the people that can't get MAVTV or get it in SD are pissed about watching the nationals and agree with chad mccan.

All those that happen to be able to see the nationals in HD as if it's 2014 don't care about the others point of view and think he's an idiot.

I have DirectTV and a 2 month old 70 inch smart tv that streams poorly with the internet broadcast. I agree with chad.

Its a free channel on direct tv,when I let them turn off service to threaten going to dish mav tv is always in the clear.

So,I can go several days and then call ,tell em come get your receivers,they are in the driveway or drop the bill down to what a obamaite in the inner city can afford,. 3am is best time to call.

Then there are those of us that don't even have a realistic option to get the channel. . . And I bought the UVERSE package because of the last TV switch. . . it's tiring having to keep being put in a situation to chase whatever company is carrying this year's flavor of network.

At this point, I'd love to have SD races. . . The races look great on the computer. . . 4 days after the race has aired. And watching live isn't an option for me online.
