Lousy ABC TV Coverage
The Indianaopolis 500 was good, but the ABC network coverage was terrible. Too many commercials showing the same commercials over and over again. I understand that the sponsors use the 500 as a forum to reach the public, but come on... enough is enough. The Side-By-Side coverage of the split screen of the race and commercials just doesn't do it. It takes too much away from the race. Too bad I had to learn about the details of the race on the evening news. Cheever and Goodyear were excellent, the other guy, well get rid of him and bring back Paul Page. Next year I'm taking my wife to the Indy so we won't have to be subjected to such a media blitz of commercials every two minutes. Nice try ABC, no Emmy awards this year. I even doubt that you'll even get a nomination. Again... Nice try ABC.
