Posts: 3,655 Portland, Maine | Dalton slams Oracle as cheats video America's Cup expert Peter Lester says it comes down to who made the call. "I think a banning from this sport but let's get it very clear - I don't think it's necessarily who did the work on the boats. Who gave the instruction to do the work on the boats is probably the more pertinent point and getting to the bottom of that could be difficult.
An investigation has started under sailing's rule 69. Well, its not like the lead bricks being moved around would have changed the results of the regattas ... However the boats should have been inspected/measured prior to every regatta. I just don't see how RC or anyone else would knowingly do this given that the ACWS to them is pretty meaningless overall. | | | Re: AC72 Oracle Team USA Spaceship has landed

Posts: 2,490 On the Water | O.K. all you techies. Looks like I'm blacked out from viewing today's race. http://www.youtube.com/americascup NBC is broadcasting today's race as a taped delay If this is the case I'm pissed. Anybody know a hack if indeed we are blacked out in the US. Should be a close and exciting race. Last delta was 2 minutes, and that was with Artemis not succeeding with the foiling gybe. Looks like they found the key yesterday. If that's the case should be close racing.

Posts: 2,490 On the Water | So these ASSHATS at NBC are going to force me to listen to that knucklehead Todd Harris? Really?
Help me out here Tad. There's got to be a work around.
