Did anyone else notice the horrible technical work of Speedvision? It was atrocious. That announcer guy they use for everything just sucks. He goes on and on about some little detail, not even realizing that Bayliss is in the middle of passing a guy to take the lead.
The cameramen too...I swear in race one they were drunk. They couldn't keep anything in a frame at all, and kept zooming in and out way too fast, as well as panning in jerky motions. Blair Witch on Motorcycles.
Then, when Hayden takes out Haga, right as it happens they CONTINUE to go to commerical. I was like, WTF?!?! You can't stop the cut to commercial even though two of the superstars on the track just wiped in a dramatic fashion?
Don't even get me started on the corkscrew coverage, when they're using the camera on E. Bostrom's bike as he gets passed in the corkscrew. Not only do I not get to see a risky pass, the announcers don't even comment on who passed him. I couldn't tell who it was because they were using the on bike camera...and they didn't cut back to E. Boz again until 2 laps later. Ridicilous.
Speed Channel you guys suck.

And while I'm at it, go back to the announcer you were using earlier in the year for World Rally. This guy you use for everything SUCKS. He doesn't even sound sincere on any subject.
And pull that Progressive ad where the guy gets his nuts voodooed by his ex when he's about to get laid. That REALLY makes me want to get bike insurance through you. Hell, I change the channel when that comes on now. Friggin' morons.
Rant over.
