I must be missing something here . They ESPN&ESPNHD film/cover the pros very well and the people doing it , all get payed for doing a good job . ESPN2&ESPNHD pays nhra good sums of money for all the rights , of all the footage and then goes after sponcers for commerials to recover those moneys . I understand the business side on this subject . They have nobody covering , or will not pay someone to role the footage of the sportsman classes , fact ! So because of ther lack of desire to cover the sportsman classes nobody can ? Are they telling us they can't find any sponcer$ to cover the sportsman classes ? We were part of that package deal with nhra pro's wright . Sounds like someones not holding up to there side of the deal , in my opionion ! Is it mainly lack of sponcer money to pay the people to run the camara's on the sportsman classes when they run . If so they are doing it wrong ! If someone roles vidio for free they should be happy , who works for free .There needs to be a compromise here . Because there are poeple who wish to watch the footage belive it or not . Do they need a petition ? Case and point , look at all the other sports . Just because you didn't go to an event/game didn't you enjoy watching on ESPN2 at home be it pro , colage or world of outlaws dirt ser. etc . Theres alot of channels with questionable material on TV that get sponcers , come on ESPN2 , I thought you were better than this .
