...for fucking up the livestreams of the second motos, week after week, year after year. Is it so hard to get a working livestream out there for your fans around the globe?? It is the year 2016, not 1985 anymore.

I see that you're a long ways from Florida, but I have zero problems getting all of it in HD. I guess traveling through thousands of miles of cables weakens the signal?

The day where both champs are crowned and virtually no one gets to see it because the live stream set up is complete and utter shite

I clicked this because I was a little bit suspicious that it might be a sarcastic thread title.

The first motos are fine, so it's for sure not the thousands miles of cables. ;-)

i would be too. we can watch MXGP no problems, but they can't watch ours? seems a little counter-productive.

I would happily pay for a service similar to MXGP for the US races! It can't be THAT difficult to set up a legit pay per view service at less surely.
They talk about furthering the sport etc, they can't even get the people who want to watch, to watch it!

How these people can keep their jobs?
If I would mess my only job year after year.. they would take one who can get it done.
Everyone says lot of s..t about Luongo.. get real he gets motos for everyone who is willing to pay.

We've been over this 1000 times. It sucks and i didn't watch the races. Will i watch them tomorrow? Maybe, i don't know.

MotoGP is way more interesting and fun to watch anyways...

That's just weird you all can get the first motos no problem, but can't get the second. Strange.

I am a fan of course,but this bullshit has even the die hards losing interest in the series. In the fantasy league I am playing in more than 1/2 have quit playing over the difficulty of trying the watch the races. Watching SOME of the race at a later date ( after we already know the results), is draining
interest.

Seriously shit! Ive paid for full season MXGP-TV for years now and had no issues. Id pay too for no advert AMA racing, but offering a free service then it failing constantly is an easy way to piss a lot of people off

I still haven't heard a proper explanation for this. If they would show only moto 1 for international viewers on purpose, then fine, but that's not the case. We should be able to see it, but we don't. It's not a connection problem either.

Sorry guys. I wish I had an explanation. You deserve to see it as much as we do. We're all moto fans. Congratulations to KRoc. In my opinion, he is the FMOTP at the moment. His starts are just so freaking good. It would not matter - in my opinion - if Dungey was there and all the other players. He's just on another level right now.

Exactly. Just fucking tell us, will we be able to watch the second motos or not? How difficult can it be?! Don't leave us hanging and guessing after the first motos.

I'm 100 Miles from you and my second moto stream was crap. 1st moto was fine. Since Mav and Dish crapped in each others soup, I have to go to the NBCSN on the web. And I was paying for Mav too. I agree, somethings wrong when I miss the complete start of a race due to commercials, then it comes back all out of shape in the first lap. Crazy.

Everything about the broadcast is just complete garbage from the black screens to the terrible fucking decisions they make related to who we're watching at any given time.

First moto, AC goes down and instead of seeing where he's at, we go watch part of a god damn track preview lap. A TRACK PREVIEW LAP. We are watching the fucking race, we don't need a preview of the track.

I mean, seriously, what fucking idiot is sitting there calling the shots on this shit? MX has the worst broadcast of any sport I've ever seen.

Have you watched the GPs these recent years?

They used to be even worse but this year something has happened. They are absolutely killing it compared to the nationals production level.

1st motos are live on Promotocross.com for free. 2nd motos you have to have a subscription to NBC Sports through your cable/satellite provider. For me to stream the 2nd motos I have to logon to DiSH Network so they can see I pay to for NBC Sports through my provider.

That being said they did fuck up the 2nd moto start (I think 250f) so it started during a commercial. Most exciting part of the race and we got to watch a General Insurance Commercial, Yeah SHAQ.
