    Sorry comment didn’t finish.
    I don’t have “premier cable channels”
    so FS1 & ESPN isn’t available to me so it really irks me that You Guys in ESPN have these shows BUT DON’T BROADCAST The Games.
    I can’t say I’m happy there on your network because until we can get radio broadcasts I’m screwed!
