TNT Sucks

Yeah, I like how they go to commercials during pit stops only to come back to watch 4 laps of pace car traffic.

Terrible.

TNT definitely had some problems today. Would rather watch every race on FOX.

one thing i really missed from the fox broadcast was the real time scoring on the crawl going across the top of the screen. on fox, if someone made a pass it immediately showed it on the crawl. tnt's on refreshed once it had gone through all 43 drivers and started back at the leader.

TNT doesn't do themselves any favors with the broadcasters they hire. Mark Fine does a nice job with the prerace show, but Wally Dallenbach and Bill Weber just do not work well in the booth. Alan Bestwick did a much better job in the booth then they shipped him to pit road, and now he's with ESPN. The pit reporters aren't very good. It's just bad all around.

only thing they have going for them is that they couldnt have picked a worse race to start out on

The coverage is the same. Just the voices are different.

"i rather listen to dw talk about himself any day of the week "

I'd rather have a root canal procedure than listen to him.

I agree the scroll is slow, but then I remembered they have to keep it at the Bama fan's reading pace.

I would hate to know what DW did during the race yesterday, Im sure wherever he was, he was talking someones ear off

Wally D adds interesting insight as well. We still get stuck will Larry Mac stutter, but at least we get little portions of him. Bill Weber could quite possibly be the worst commentator at any level in any profession ever. Why Bestwick is in the pits is beyond me. Overall all though TNT is 100x better than Fox and they have better technology. TNT would be 5,000,000x better if not for the idiot Weber or that stupid "we've already looked it up so you won't have to" quote. If you don't like TNT you only have a 6 week plan of them. It's not like they have the most entertaining races to broadcast anyway, look at their list.

The coverage isn't any worse than the racing itself.

That is true. I used to love Nascar. I have been to several tracks over the years. Went to both races at Bristol for 10+ years. We let the tickets go back last year because the racing is just terrible anymore plus they want you to pay a year in advance just to keep them. Oh well. Football is just around the bend.
