Fox Sports Net Coverage

Shawn Jelley · 2003-07-07T04:01:04+00:00

to the OLN-less americans out there, i have found coverage of Le Tour on Fox Sports Net. apparently, according to the guide on my TV, there should be coverage of the TDF on tomorrow 7/7 from 11:30am-12:30pm EST. this should be the same coverage that FSN has had over the last few years, usually crummy, buuuttt better than nothing. i'll assume this is monday-friday, with the weekly CBS/NBC (whichever one it is !) wrapup on sundays. just thought i'd let y'all know, i hope it is available where you are. shawn

Thanks, a lot of us OLN-enabled americans actually do have OLN.
But for those of us who don't, thanks.

DirecTV has been carrying the Tour every morning at 9:00 a.m. eastern, then replaying it
later in the evening. Go LANCE!

Could you please verify that this is indeed so? Did FOX Sports have this show? I havent seen
ANYTHING in my local TV listings about this show. While not as good as OLN, the daily 30 minute
wrap up has been great over the years to at least get your daily fix of what's going on in Le Tour
day by day.
Tks,

right now, on FSN, there is a paid-ad for the 'magic can', something that was apparently supposed to
be on at 11:00am. hopefully they are just running late. shawn

looks like FSN gave us the shaft for today, apparently an infomercial for a garbage can was more
important than the TDF. maybe tomorrow, fingers crossed.

Everyday I have checked FSNY for Tour coverage (which DISH shows on the schedule as well), and
they've not shown the Tour yet. I had little respect for Fox anything before, this just adds to it.
