Which is strange. FOX Sports does "side-by-side" coverage for most of their sports properties.

I think FOX didnt feel the need to do side by side for a non points race.
As for the booth lineups:
Cup: My good ol' boys, not sure about you but it's the perfect trio of all sports broadcasting.
Xfinity: I like Adam, he's a cool guy. Not really sure about MW... I think he should stay in Trucks, I would rather see Wally Dallenbach since he's been on Race Hub recently. Brad will be nice, not sure what to expect with Kevin and Jeff.
Trucks: I do hope Steve gets well soon, he is a pretty good lead commentator from the Truck races he did last summer. Mike Joy doing Truck races will be cool, I already like Adam, but who is Brian Till? MW and Phil have done Trucks for years and do alright at it.

DirecTV subscribers can now access Fox Sports Go
The news was announced suddenly on Twitter today by Fox Sports digital guru Pete Vlastelica:
We told you earlier this month that DirecTV and Fox Sports had reached an agreement for FSG and it would open for the satellite provider “very soon.” Well, “very soon” has turned into right now and just in time for one of Fox’s big events, the Daytona 500 this a Sunday.
On the Fox Sports Go tablet app, once you get past the introductory screen, you’ll see the Fox Sports channels and once you tap on one of the events, you’ll get this authentication screen and you’ll notice that DirecTV is finally added to the major providers along with AT&T U-Verse, Bright House, Cablevision’s Optimum, Charter, Comcast’s Xfinity, Cox and Time Warner Cable.

Road courses and short tracks.
Hopefully Dish users won't be far behind. Then maybe I'll have both reason and opportunity to try streaming something.

Basically, if you have one of the television providers mentioned in the article you can watch all of the FOX races on your electronic device of choice, phone, iPad, etc.....DP you know damn well that I don't know what that means.

Can we get two of these guys on each week and get rid of Michael Waltrip?

NASCAR needs a driver's union
Can we just get rid of Waltrip and put Gordon in the booth full time next year?

So, ESPN could air the press conference but FOX Sports 2 couldn't interrupt a THREE YEAR OLD UFC rerun? Wow.

I really love Adam Alexander in the booth, just was born for the job. MW isnt the best I agree but w/e. Kevin needs some improvement but great debut, as for the future: Brad will be fun to hear though I'm concerned with Jeff's booth performance.

Something I look for in a race broadcaster is that they sound smooth, and I don't really know if Jeff can do that, but I'll have to see him in action first.

So far, the only complaint I have (besides the Waltrip brothers) is the use of full screen replays. Honestly, this is starting to make me nuttier than commercials.
