It not merely a sport but a gambling event. The gambling aspect also keeps many players watching on the simulcast channel or OTB where they would rather watch and bet on multiple tracks at once. <BR/><BR/>As far as informed fans, I would agree but baseball with all its statistics and daily flow also requires great dedication and loads of information, albeit not in a pure gambling form.SaratogaSpahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05181152277681879529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31782753.post-11405563652068160132009-04-02T08:52:00.000-04:002009-04-02T08:52:00.000-04:00College B'Ball-CBSNBA-ABCNASCAR-FOXPGA-NBCFigure S...College B'Ball-CBS<BR/>NBA-ABC<BR/>NASCAR-FOX<BR/>PGA-NBC<BR/>Figure Skating-NBCSaratogaSpahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05181152277681879529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31782753.post-67638663211549581172009-04-01T23:14:00.000-04:002009-04-01T23:14:00.000-04:00What channels were those events on?What channels were those events on?Janinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14047490474591949631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31782753.post-11367347196891844942009-04-01T22:19:00.000-04:002009-04-01T22:19:00.000-04:00Racing is not a TV sport.

Watching one of these games is a one way street, the info flows fron the TV and the presenters to the viewer and you sit there and absorb it. <BR/><BR/>Racing is much different.
