NBC has paid a lot more for the olympics than NASCAR. And the sponsors
spots are already done. Also, there are more viewers interested in the
olympics than in qualifying.

I'm glad NBC has these priorities. I'm hopping back and forth.

If you're having a little trouble figuring out how to use the remote for
your TV so you can change to Speed or TNT, RTFB.

I don't think he can count high enough to know that channel number.

Speed picked it up, but still. Went from nice 16:9 high def coverage to the
blahness of the Speed SD coverage...but at least they covered those last few
cars. Kudos to whomever allowed the network "crossover" though (NBC is NBC,
Speed is Fox). It was kind of wierd to see NBC TV graphics on the Speed
coverage...but at least we had the coverage.
