Fox Sports 2

As a NASCAR fan, I was afraid that I would not be able to see the same racing events that I used to see on Speed when they rebranded the channel this past weekend.  I was just proven correct.  I now won't be able to see the Whelan Modified race that is airing on FoxSports 2 from Bristol tonight as Comcast doesn't have Fox Sports 2 in the channel lineup.  I was able to watch it last year when it was on Speed.

 

I strongly encourage Comcast to rectify this situation and add Fox Sports 2 to the lineup.  If I can't watch the things I want to watch because the channel isn't available, then I'm going to look for a cable provider who can provide it.

Here is my post (minus the side note)  that resulted in the complete post being Deleted/Moved by my friend Mr. Ted who didn't like my side note about Beta trials.

 

If you have an interest just click on the linl in my last post.

 

In 20/20 hind sight it appears that the original scheduling that was posted for TV coverage here in Florida was changed at the last minute. Hmmmmmmmmmmm, wonder what that was all about??? Did any of you see the same thing? I usually set my recording of Sprint & Nationwide on Wed. when the channel line up comes out in the local rag & it was then that I saw the major events being on FS2. Come Friday they had been changed. Ya think?

 

Mr. Ted, as we say in the Ham Radio Community "Good luck in the contest Ole Man".

Any updates on getting Fox Sports 2?


No!!! BUT I'll give you an update on FS2 coverage this week. IF you happen to not be blessed from Comcast with FS2, you'll miss Nationwide Qualifying, SOME Sprint practice, & to top things of, you ALSO will not see Sprint Cup Qualifying!!! Don't you just LOVE the GREAT service we get from Comcast. NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm sure they don't like any of our opinions, however well written they may be. 

 

If Comcast does not decide to provide my area with Fox Sports 2 by the next UFC on Fox event, as they promised, I'm jumping ship. TV, phones, internet - all of it.

I got the sports package to watch college basketball - now I find that there is no Fox Sports 2 - I guess I thought it was so obvious that it should be there that I didn't check in advance - now looking for a new carrier

Well,

When the Supercross Season Starts in January, if Fox Sports 2 is not avialble on Comcast, I am jumping ship and going to one of the other providers...  End of discussion - I have waited over a yeat for Comcast to keep itspromise, and I am at the end of that wait.   They get a big huge fail.

Fox Sports has a mobile app called Fox Sports Mobile.  You download the app to your cell phone or tablet and log in to the Fox Sports Mobile site using your Xfinity credentials.  That allows you to see much of the Fox Sports 2 content.  I access it for college basketball but I beleive they also offer some auto races as well.  Good luck.

I see what they did.  Before you sign in to FOX SPORTS GO, it lists whats on FOX SPORTS 1 & FOX SPORTS 2.  As soon as you sign in, any listing for FOX SPORTS 2 goes away, assuming you don't have FS2 on your cable line up.  Instead, more programing shows up under the channel "FOX SPORTS GO".  That may be how you can see FS2 content.  I haven't tried it out, as there is nothing I care to watch right now.

Just tried it as well after seeing the post about FOX's mobile app. As soon as you log in FS2 dissappears.

Boy, Fox sports sure know how to irritate the San Francisco Bay area.  The Cal-Stanford game, an important local tradition, was bumped from Fox Sports 1 for an Oklahoma game - not a tradition for the 5 million people who live in the Bay Area) - and moved to Fox Sports 2, a channel not covered even by my pretty extensive Comcast Xfinity contract.  

 

These all leaves a very bad taste in my mouth. It will come back every time I think of Fox Sports.

 

Yours, Homer

Agreed!!!!  I cannot believe they moved the big game to this channel and contnue to show a blowout game and we can't access FS2 in the Bay Area on Comcast.  Come on Comcast!!!!

So Dish, Direct TV and U-verse offer Fox Sports 2 and Comcast that gets over $200.00 of our money every month does not offer the channel that is televising the Big Game today.  Comcast, please mention this the next time you are doing those anti-Uverse commercials that your customers in the Bay Area could not watch the Big Game because you don't carry a channel that all of your competitors do.

 

Fox is to blame for this too.  I would rather watch paint dry than Kansas at Oklahoma after a rain delay because the Big12 players were worried their skirts would get wet.

 

Figure out Comcast, you cannot be without a contengency plan for the Big Game in the Bay Area!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just sent a request that you get Fox Sports 2, when I wanted to see the Big Game.  But now that I think about it, I've changed my mind, & I don't care whether you get it or not.  There's not enough on Fox Sports 2 to bother, and I'd just as soon as have Fox have less channels after the lousy coverage they did with the World Series.
