Note to Speed Channel:
1. Please have your hosts (Ralph and Jeff) show some respect for each other and viewers by not talking over each other all the time. It’s more than ridiculous! I had to turn of the sound to keep for losing my mind!
2. Have a meeting with your camera and production people to realize that once you place the track position banner at the top of the screen you’re cutting of the riders heads when tracking them over jumps and some other obstacles. This same problem also makes the onboard (helmet Camera) worthless footage. All we see is the ground.
If this sport wants to go mainstream, we need to do a better job. I know the augments, Jeff and Ralph get excited…Its hard to get the right camera angles. Come on! They are paid professionals…do your job or let some else do it, that has the passion to do it right.
As fans we are asked to pay for expensive satellite or cable fees to watch and now have to pay to listen to webcasts. So I don’t think quality coverage is a lot to ask for.

Just watched the race. Thought it was done pretty good, except for Jeff and Ralph STILL calling it "Lites" and "Supercross"... Drove me nuts.
