You and few other people on this forum don’t have to watch the races live.
But a lot of us here and probably every fan outside of vital wants to watch the races live.
weege and malin are the 2 best callers in the game. just let them do their respective series and all in the world would be fine. i will be pissed each week til supercross gets their shit together. i don't even care to watch it weekly i'm just waiting for us to get back to motocross and hopefully weege is back full time.
Stop watching.
You guys need your own containment board.
MXGP has better camera angles and it allows Malin (ONE announcer) to call the race action as he is seeing it.
That’s what SX needs to try. One announcer calling the race action and have RC and others for in between races.
I can’t imagine it being worse.

Just watched Alpine Skiing mens and womens Super G from Sqaw Valley on NBC today. Lets hope and pray that our SX coverage doesn't turn into what NBC has done to skiing. Three commentators who cant seem to shut their mouths shut. Off topic subjects and nothin but verbal diahharea. Just like in SX, they are trying to create something for the psuedo wanna be fans.
Maybe they sabotage the coverage on purpose to put asses in the seats? 🤔
Huh? First, the FIS Super G races were from Sun Valley, ID. How on earth did you get Squaw Valley? BTW, the proper name for Squaw is now 'Palisades'. Where have you been the past few years?
Today's Announcers were first rate, the normal NBC/Peacock crew. Real-time commentary on the racers (their backgrounds, season challenges, injuries, etc) was quick - they only had about a minute to focus on each racer's run - and on point throughout the broadcast. Side stories were interesting and helpful. You did know that ex-World Champion Picabo Street (from Idaho) was one of the Announcers?
I watch a lot of skiing and do not know what the "verbal diahharea" (sic) is that you write about. NBC did a good job today.
It could be worse. We could get a boogity boogity boogity at the start of each race
I agree. Not once did they bring up fishing while a racer was on course.
Boycott vital while you are at it.
"bloviating"?
Nice! I don't hear that word too often out in the wild.
The motivation that you found to post in it is even more pathetic than your negativity and arm chair quarterbacking.
Not so much the commentator's fault. It would be the production crew that is setting up all that fluff. Go back and watch a race from the 80's when they are calling the action, it is way better and more engaging in my opinion. I cancelled my Peacock this morning. Enuff.
I seriously muted the whole race (I watched the replay of because I was at a party earlier). It was awesome I fast forwarded to each race and put up with the 60 second ad and still watched the whole thing in just over an hour with no heartburn over listening to the booth
Different and Brayton?
That’s literally not what he said.
Let’s bring back blood letting, cocaine in Coca Cola, morphine for teething, no seatbelts, no fire codes and so on. 🤯
Diffey and RC are doing exactly what they are being directed to do by there bosses, I thought it was fine to show Mookies fishing pictures I was wondering how you cook them and what it taste like to be honest, JT is great so was DB, on the track Will gets a little long winded most of the time, Diffey is much better when he does Indy cars very good for that sport, RC is still one of our greatest MX bad dudes to ever throw a leg over and line up everyone needs to chill a bit and enjoy the racing that we get to enjoy every week for the whole SMX season life is good smile!!😎
Pit Row
I'm with ya. I think RC is a buffoon in the booth. But I like the TV package mostly. Of they'd just call te damn race and not let screech be rambling on some dumb story while passes and crashes are happening.
Yes, it was. Go rewind and listen to his last sentence after rambling about the first and last part of the season.
Weege is average at best IMO but he’s way better then diff.
Im gonna ride mah yama har down to tamper and then over to daytoner. He needs to spend some time learning AMERICAN fkn English.
If you liked todays broadcast be sure to tune in to NBC for more fucked up commentary next week!
Jo "Shimoder" has a broken finger.
I'm not one to bash things, but that broadcast was terrible. Idiotic commentary, showing points how they run 2 1/2 minutes into the 2nd moto, which is ridiculous, and the terrible timing and scoring. It was almost unwatchable.
This right here is gospel. Weege full time, JT on the floor, and Emig, Stew, whoever, rotating each week would be just fine
Talk to the producer not the bobble heads that are told what to say.
and weege
weege deserves a job
RC has to be threatened by Stew. I’m sure the RC-LD club has to be on him for breaking down the actual race instead of their 30,000’ view of “the green Kawasaki”.
You know LD intentionally says “honder”. It’s a god damn Honda in every place on earth
On top of this is when a rider is charging through the field, and they don't show it until he's actually up to the podium (or lead). And then, the announcers act all surprised. Like, yeah, if you look at timing, you'd see that Tomac has been passing multiple guys per lap and has taken 4 seconds out of the leaders while dealing with traffic. He didn't just magically spawn from 14th to 3rd. Y'all could've been covering this, or at least made a mention of it.
This is what gets me. They rarely discuss lap times or intervals times, or section times, or when a top 5 guy is at for some reason at the back.
If it’s not on the screen they just pretend like there is nothing else going on.
