HOLY SHIT - THANK GOD!!
yippie! How about some MLB.
Now their taking a left right left right oh wait number eighty is coming on to challenge #3 we'll be right back after a word from our sponsors.
Do a search for Letterman's top ten of why blacks aren't in racing and I think number 2 should have been #1.
Wow racing on the radio, I can't wait until lacross and a marathon are covered. Please let me know when those start on radio!!
That's great but the coverage is really buried on XM, no one will happen upon it up there.
Sure would be nice if the platform had a program where the series was discussed weekly and drivers were interviewed on a regular basis.
Oh wait! That was Power Shift and they canceled it.
Sirius XM, provide some programming that supports and promotes the other racing series (IRL, F1, now LeMans) that the platform now carries . Bring back Power Shift!
All NASCAR talk just doesn't deliver!
This is awesome! I hope that means that IRL on my Sirius radio is not too far behind!
I can't wait for the day for all sports programming to be available to all subscribers with out the Best of package.
Will the preempt one of the few channels i still enjoy for this (The Verge). Probably.
Why am i still here?
I often say to myself that I would love to hear sports on the radio insteaad of watching sports on my HD TV
Sweet.. very pleased.
