Wow. A TV style presentation with live commentary. And the commentators were not dumb, either. Wow. You gotta tell me how you got involved with that Blaze. (It also took me awhile to figure out which car was you...) In the meantime, this is a top 10 (although this could've easily been a top 20) of t...

That's why I posted that American Olympic Announcer vid. :-)

The BBC is ad free because we have pay for it. It's not exactly all that straight forward. How does that work? It's over-the-air TV, isn't it? Or is it cable/satellite? Never been overseas so I'm not familiar here. Anyways, this should prove you British folks got better coverage - don't worry this ...

I should mention that there was a Gallup poll last week that showed 59% of Americans (71% of Americans that watch a lot of it) would like to see the major Olympic events both live and on tape delay. Really, that would be smart because not everybody are able to watch them live - we all have lives. So...

I think it's improved, but far from perfect. NBC Sports in general was complete trash for the last 12 or so years before this one. Maybe Embersol's departure was the best thing that happened to NBC Sports. On the flip side, BBC has probably created the template for GREAT Olympics coverage. Again, ba...

That's a fun one, but the GEM might be this:

Sidenote... It's been said that BBC has had much better coverage of the olympics than NBC has, but this probably isn't one of them thanks to their Mo Farah homerism.

Surprising news, but hopefully this does nothing but improve (Radio)SEGA Media! Seriously.

You gotta think the crashes were amongst the reasons of NASCAR's brief rise in popularity. That's why America's Funniest Home Videos (aka AFV) is still on. But you can't deny it has its hardcore fans - I know a few personally even right here in Nebraska. International popularity is something NASCAR ...

True, besides, why NASCAR? I could maybe understand F1 which is popular in many countries around the world, but isn't NASCAR is only popular in the Red states of the US? Not fair statement. NASCAR is actually one of the most watched sports leagues on TV today... top 5 I believe. At one point it was...

Interesting article here from last year about the most popular NASCAR drivers that simply... don't win. Many are quite prominent names... some of which could've been picked instead (Tony Stewart, anybody?). http://bleacherreport.com/articles/815199-danica-patrick-and-the-top-10-most-popular-drivers-...
