ESPN actually Apologizes for their lack of Coverage

I was glued to the set, watching Kasey Kahne defend his lead from a couple of contenders. Newman just lost a tire when Leffler forced them 4 wide to pass a lapped car, and fender rubbed into Newman.. Newmans tire smoked out almost immediately. LOOK OUT Kasey!! Here comes Leffler! Oh my god, is Leffler going to drive through Kahne to get the..............

Don't know. Screen went blank. It got very quiet in the house for the last few laps...

Then it came back just as everyone was coasting across the finish line! Hey!! What happened, who won? Well, that was what it was like to watch the Busch race on ESPN2 Friday night. They immediately replayed the last few laps, but the high anxiety tension was over by then, but it was another in a long line of little slips they keep doing to the viewer. At least here, it was big enough that they had to get in front of the situation, as they would say in NYPD Blue!
