No sorry Ed CBS local cant change the programming and since CBS is the only station you get on your television, you are forced to watch it. They have developed a new figamajig that if you try and turn it off you will be shocked. Dont worry I heard the prototype only felt like grabbing a cow fence. We all apologize that these measures had to be taken with you, but if you dont watch, CBS will go out of business and we will lose some quality programming. Please Ed I beg of you, dont screw it up for the rest of us.

You are right George, Ed I am sorry. In previous years, when Reggie paid for offshore to be on television the detractors always whined and complained that it was a "Fountain Infomercial". With Reggie paying for it, why shouldn't it have been. You can easily see where your post could be misunderstood. To answer your re-post that clarified, in speaking with CBS National a little while ago, shows listed as "Spectaculars" will be carried nationwide with the local CBS stations having to carry it as part of their contracts with the network. In summary, no, the local stations can not put an infomercial over this broadcast. Can I guarantee this, absolutely not, I am merely a messenger and called them directly and asked them.

10-09-2009 03:36 PMgotta say that somebody called this BS back then and got ridiculed.
even more suprising is the nobody has stood up and questioned sbi's lack of doing what it said was the "next big thing" for offshore, the CBS tv deal.
ahh just another empty promise. hopefully all those guys that were talking about having sponsorship $$$ because of sbi's TV deal got paid up front.
wonder if JC is going to give you guys a discount on the KW race???

10-09-2009 04:10 PMThe "Word" is it will air but is delayed. Don't know when and why officially though. Hate to speculate with something so important though.

I will no longer be an 'unofficial' apologist for John Carbonell... The only producer of powerboat racing I will look to for leadership and what direction anything is going from now on is Smitty.
However, responsibility for paying the producer of the filming and getting the 'time-buy' aired was on Danny Gadarian's shoulders. JC was in over his head... I was told by Frank Chivas, that filming with the HD television cameras at Clearwater was provided by Frank Chivas. Since Danny Gadarian was a no show...
TV coverage is the topic of every other sentence in every conversation going on in the back ground, to resolve the future direction of where things will end up. Get your facts from Smitty, let everything else, take it's natural course.
Danny Gadarian used this number to call me after I signed the letter of intent to bring SBI to Clearwater last Jan. 25th, **********He's the one with the answers... from what he said.
Sorry guys... this is the man that told me I was the big mouth running around Clearwater! He was going to get the Sheriff and run me out of town! Its personal, no doubt about it!
Just PM me a request for the number, for this J... A..!Last edited by Coach; 10-10-2009 at 10:57 AM. Reason: Posting someone else's phone number :(

10-10-2009 05:30 AMOffshore Racing wasnīt designed to be a spectator sport, it's for people or companies with's lots of money to push the envelope of endurance technology and hopefully put a trophy on a mantle. It's man vs the elements, not like boats with like engines running in circles.
