VOTE: Do you like NASCAR TV broadcasts on Amazon Prime Video?
To Prime or not to Prime?
That is the question.
As NASCAR puts the first two races of its five-race Amazon Prime Video experiment in the rearview mirror and moves on to Week 3 at Michigan International Speedway, perspectives run the gamut.

Some fans love Prime's coverage. They enjoy less commercials — only six minutes of full breaks during the 198 minutes of the Nashville Cup Series race broadcast last week, according to CawsNjaws. They like listening to Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the booth.
And they were probably already paying for Amazon Prime (or they took advantage of a 30-day free trial).
But others loathe Prime's coverage simply due to accessibility. They don't want to pay for the streaming service or don't want to mess around with a new app on their colored televisions.
The ratings have remained decent. According to the Nielson folks, the first two Prime broadcasts have averaged between 2-3 million viewers. That matches races on FS1. It's lower than the races on Fox, of course.

So let's conduct a little test of our own. Through two weeks, how are you feeling? Do you like having NASCAR on Prime? Or do you hate it?
The poll will stay open until noon Sunday.

Thunder strike back as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander dominates Game 2 to even NBA Finals against Pacers
The Oklahoma City Thunder didn't blow a lead to the Indiana Pacers this time, as they evened up the series at one apiece after a strong Game 2 win, 123-107. Last game, it was Tyrese Haliburton showcasing another bit of heroics with a last-second shot to win it for Indiana on the road in Game 1. But Haliburton, or any of his teammates, could get back into this game as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander & Co. ran up the score and kept it that way. The league's MVP had the right answer for the Pacers' wild come-from-behind victory in Game 1, going 11-of-21 from the floor and 11-of-12 from the charity stripe for a 34-point night to lead the game in that category. Gilgeous-Alexander also tallied eight assists, five rebounds, four steals and one block as he truly did it all on the court. The deep Thunder bench also provided some much-needed offense, as Alex Caruso had the hot hand from three-point range, hitting four of his eight attempts on his way to a 20-point night. Aaron Wiggins also added 18 points on an efficient 6-of-11 shooting with four rebounds to mark as well. In the starting five, Jalen Williams (19 points, five rebounds, five assists) and Chet Holmgren (15 points, six rebounds, one assist) also aided in the victory. Meanwhile, the Pacers struggled shooting from deep in this game, going 14-of-40 as a team (35%), which ultimately led to Oklahoma City pulling away in this one. Every Indiana starter had double-digit points, as the ball was spread around as it usually is in their offensive zone. Haliburton went 7-of-13 from the field for 17 points, but he was just 3-of-8 from beyond the arc. Myles Turner (16 points), Pascal Siakam (15 points, seven rebounds) and Andrew Nembhard (11 points) went a combined 3-of-13 from three-point territory, which has been uncharacteristic of them in these NBA Playoffs. The Thunder's largest lead in this game was 23, while the Pacers only led by three points during the contest. Of course, Indiana led by just 0.3 seconds last game after Haliburton's mid-range jumper rattled home. But on their home court, this is what many expected as the series heads back to Indiana on Wednesday at 8:30 p.m. tip-off.

Red Sox hit 5 home runs and overcome 2 by Judge in 11-7 win over Yankees
NEW YORK — Carlos Narváez put Boston ahead with a three-run homer against his former team, and the Red Sox overcame two home runs by Aaron Judge in an 11-7 victory over the New York Yankees on Sunday night. Rafael Devers also went deep as Boston equaled a season high with five longballs to take two of three games at Yankee Stadium in the first series this season between the longtime rivals. Narváez signed with the Yankees in 2015 and broke into the big leagues with them last year, getting into six games before New York traded him to Boston in December. The rookie catcher gave the Red Sox a 5-3 lead in the sixth inning by lifting a fastball from Carlos Rodón (8-4) into the left-field seats. Judge hit a pair of two-run homers for his fourth multihomer game this season and the 43rd of his career. He connected in the first off rookie Hunter Dobbins (3-1) and again in the ninth, ending the night with a .396 batting average. Boston rookie Kristian Campbell hit a two-run homer to the short porch in right field off Rodón in the fifth. Abraham Toro and Trevor Story hit back-to-back solo shots in the eighth off Jonathan Loáisiga. Jarren Duran had a two-run single off Yankees reliever Tim Hill in the sixth. Toro added an RBI double in the ninth. Dobbins allowed three runs and four hits in five innings. A day after telling the Boston Herald, 'If the Yankees were the last team to give me a contract, I'd retire,' Dobbins heard little reaction from the crowd of 45,140. DJ LeMahieu homered in the fifth to give New York a 3-2 lead. Rodón permitted five runs and three hits in five-plus innings. The left-hander lost for the first time in eight decisions since April 13. Garrett Whitlock retired LeMahieu on a bases-loaded grounder to end the sixth after the Yankees had cut it to 7-5. … Aroldis Chapman, the seventh Boston reliever, fanned Anthony Volpe with two on for his 11th save. Boston scored 27 runs in the series, its most in a three-game set at Yankee Stadium since 2005. … Loáisiga has allowed four homers in nine appearances since returning from elbow surgery. Red Sox RHP Brayan Bello (2-1, 3.91 ERA) opens a three-game series in Boston against Tampa Bay RHP Shane Baz (5-3, 4.96) on Monday night. Yankees LHP Max Fried (8-1, 1.78 ERA) opposes rookie LHP Noah Cameron (2-1, 0.85) in the opener of a three-game series Tuesday at Kansas City. ___ More AP baseball:

Caitlin Clark Praised for Behavior Before Fever-Sky Rematch
Caitlin Clark Praised for Behavior Before Fever-Sky Rematch originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Saturday night could be a critical time for the Indiana Fever, not only because theyb have a chance to move back to .500 with a win over the Chicago Sky, but because they could be looking at their last game played without Caitlin Clark, as she recovers from a quad injury suffered against the Liberty on May 24. Advertisement After the injury was announced, the Fever said Clark would be re-evaluated in two weeks, and it's now been two weeks. Indiana plays next on Tuesday in Atlanta, and it is possible that Clark will be back on the floor for that one. Clark was not committing to playing on Tuesday, as she noted on Thursday. "I'll miss this weekend's game, but after that, it's day-by-day and see how I feel, and just turn to the medical staff and what they think," Clark said. "I feel like I've made a lot of progress and I feel good, and I'm not going to rush coming back. It's just not worth it. But after this weekend, I'll be reevaluated and we'll have a better idea of when I'll return." Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark (22) signs autographs before a WNBA game against the Chicago Sky at United Center. Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images Still, she was on hand for the Fever's game in Chicago, which had been moved to the NBA's United Center in anticipation of a record crowd--before Clark's injury. And as a stream of Fever fans approached her, Clark (as well as fellow injured guard Sophie Cunningham) spent the better part of an hour signing autographs for fans and taking pictures. Fans heaped praise on Clark. Advertisement "People's choice as always. Unreal aura," one fan wrote. "Look at all those fans and she's trying her hardest to give all of them a little attention," another added. Another wrote, "CC is one of the nicest people. Always supports her fans." "And this is why @CaitlinClark22 is so loved," another commented. The W is lucky ot have her, one added: "She's carrying the entire league, in every city on her back. The WNBA was given an unbelievable gift." Don't forget Cunningham, of course, as the Indy Star's Chloe Peterson pointed out. Even with two of their best players sidelined with injury and even with coach Stephanie White out for personal reasons, the Fever held a 41-28 lead at halftime. This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 8, 2025, where it first appeared.
