Does this mean we get Xfinity races again too???

I see today the US Open is broadcast on Fox Sports and the guide at least states Xfinity coverage for Chicago race tomorrow at 9:30. Does this mean a deal has been struck? If so, it's a shame AT&T looks upon their NASCAR fans as second-class customers. I have long suspected that when their white-collar "Golf" customers started complaining they were missing the US Open they would actually do something about it, but I'll reserve judgement until I see the Xfinity race tomorrow instead of darts as usual...the whole episode still stinks though.

Yes!  Look at all of the posts on the US Open to read more.

 

Just remember that FOX started all of this, requesting a surcharge on newly acquired programming, even though it was not at a time when their contract was up.  Shady dealings but AT&T has some blame in allowing it go on but FOX is who I'd be more upset with.  That would be like HBO withholding Game of Thrones until subscribers pay extra.

 

I have seen a Press Release that states that it is over but I can't share it at this time.
