I’ll keep this short, and slightly bitter, and then it’s back to the race.
Dear ESPN,
I sure hope from here on out you plan to extend the same courtesy to NASCAR that you extended to tennis earlier this afternoon. The cutoff move to an infomercial for the Bristol race was disgusting, and an event that should not be repeated. Let alone should have happened in the first place.
So, the next time race coverage of a NASCAR sanctioned event would run over, you’d better show it. Else I can only imagine the backlash from fans. It wouldn’t be pretty, that’s for sure.
Your return to coverage was a welcomed one in your replacement of NBC. One that looked promising from the start. You screwed the fans with the Bristol deal, a move not recommended to repeat. Screw us once, shame on you. Do it twice, shame on us.
