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.

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.
