This Week: Veteran race broadcaster Bob Varsha leads a team of 10 on-air personalities and analysts as FOX Sports delivers live multi-platform coverage of the 82nd running of the iconic 24 HOURS OF LE MANS from famed Circuit de la Sarthe in France, beginning Saturday. June 14. Said Varsha: “Some events need no hype whatsoever; think The Masters, the Kentucky Derby, the Tour de France. Le Mans is one of those. Dale Earnhardt once told me it was the one race he wanted to do outside of NASCAR, and I'm sure Mario Andretti would tell you that, for all he achieved, Le Mans was the one that got away. That's how the drivers see it. It's that big a challenge, and that rewarding.” NASCAR NASCAR ON FOX SPORTS 1 & FOX SPORTS 2 FROM MICHIGAN INTERNATIONAL SPEEDWAY & GATEWAY INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY FOX Sports 1 continues exclusive, live coverage of the entire 2014 NASCAR CAMPING WORLD TRUCK SERIES season with this weekend’s stop at Gateway International Raceway on Saturday, June 14 (9:00 PM ET), the series’ first trip to the St. Louis track since 2010. In addition, FOX Sports 1 and FOX Sports 2 offer shoulder programming surrounding the NASCAR SPRINT CUP SERIES and NASCAR NATIONWIDE SERIES live from Michigan International Speedway. After six races, defending Truck Series champion Matt Crafton, who won at Texas in dominating fashion last weekend, marking the first time he has posted multiple victories in one season, once again leads the point standings. He is followed by ThorSport Racing teammate Johnny Sauter, four-time champion Ron Hornaday Jr., Ryan Blaney and Timothy Peters. FOX Sports GO, the app that provides live streaming video of FOX Sports content, offers live streaming of the race, as well as all practice and qualifying sessions and shoulder programming telecast on FOX Sports 1. Customers of participating video providers may access the live streams of the race through the FOX Sports GO app for iOS devices, as well as on desktops through FOXSportsGO.com. NASCAR CAMPING WORLD TRUCK SERIES RACE FROM GATEWAY INTERNATIONAL RACEWAY Network/When: FOX Sports 1 & FOX Sports GO on Saturday, June 14 (8:30 PM ET) Talent: Rick Allen, Phil Parsons, Michael Waltrip, Ray Dunlap and Hermie Sadler RAY DUNLAP SAYS PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE AT GATEWAY COULD GIVE VETERANS A SLIGHT LEG UP THIS WEEKEND: “I’ll be watching Ron Hornaday Jr. this weekend because he has a lot of experience at Gateway. Not only that -- his team has been on a roll lately and probably should have finished second at Texas. With so many unknowns at Gateway, those who ran there a few years ago should have an advantage over the young guys who have never seen the place. It’s a hard track to get a hold of and wears the tires out quickly, so the guys who have been around a while and know how to manage their tires will do well. Experience from five or 10 years ago won’t guarantee a trip to Victory Lane, but it certainly can’t hurt.” DUNLAP SAYS TEAMS CANNOT RELY ON SETUPS FROM LAST RACE AT GATEWAY: “A team’s notebook from having raced at Gateway in the past is useless today because the body styles of the trucks and horsepower numbers are so different than a few years ago when they last raced there.

    Versatile Fox Sports Broadcaster Kenny Albert Continues to Pair with Biggest Names in Sports

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Erik Arneson, FOX Sports Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2016 [email protected] VERSATILE FOX SPORTS BROADCASTER KENNY ALBERT CONTINUES TO PAIR WITH BIGGEST NAMES IN SPORTS Boothmates like Namath, Ewing, Palmer, Leonard ‘Enhance Broadcasts … Make My Job a Lot More Fun’ Teams with Former Cowboy and Longtime Broadcast Partner Daryl ‘Moose’ Johnston and Sideline Reporter Laura Okmin for FOX NFL in 2016 With an ever-growing roster of nearly 250 teammates (complete list below) that includes iconic names like Joe Namath, Patrick Ewing, Jim Palmer, Jeremy Roenick and “Sugar Ray” Leonard, versatile FOX Sports play-by-play announcer Kenny Albert -- the only announcer currently doing play-by-play for all four major U.S. sports (NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL) -- certainly knows the importance of preparation and chemistry. “The most important aspects of my job are definitely research and preparation,” said Albert, a second-generation broadcaster whose long-running career behind the sports microphone started in high school, and as an undergraduate at New York University in the late 1980s, he called NYU basketball games. “When the NFL season begins, it's similar to what coaches go through. If I'm not sleeping, eating or spending time with my family, I'm preparing for that Sunday's game. “And when I first work with a particular analyst, researching their career is definitely a big part of it,” Albert added. “With (Daryl Johnston) ‘Moose,’ for example, there are various anecdotes from his years with the Dallas Cowboys that pertain to our games. When I work local Knicks telecasts with Walt ‘Clyde’ Frazier on MSG, a percentage of our viewers were avid fans of Clyde during the Knicks’ championship runs in 1970 and 1973, so we weave some of those stories into the broadcasts.” As the 2016 NFL season gets underway, Albert once again teams with longtime broadcast partner Johnston, with whom he has paired for 10 seasons, sideline reporter Laura Okmin and producer Barry Landis.

    A World Title Shot Is on the Line As Robbie Lawler Battles Matt Brown July 26 in San Jose

    A WORLD TITLE SHOT IS ON THE LINE AS ROBBIE LAWLER BATTLES MATT BROWN JULY 26 IN SAN JOSE Las Vegas, Nevada – UFC® returns to SAP Center at San Jose with a title elimination match pitting two knockout artists against one another as No. 1-ranked Robbie Lawler will take on No. 5-ranked Matt Brown with the winner earning a shot at champion Johny Hendricks. Additionally, the card will feature several Bay Area-based fighters in Josh Thomson, Noad Lahat and Kyle Kingsbury. Coming off an impressive third-round finish over an always game Jake Ellenberger, Lawler (23-10, 1 NC, fighting out of Coconut Creek, Fla.) will take on the surging Brown (21-11, fighting out of Columbus, Ohio) in hopes of securing a second crack at UFC gold. Brown, who has put together one of the most impressive runs in mixed martial arts today, currently rides a seven-fight win streak, and will be looking to lock down a title shot he feels is long overdue. On July 26 at SAP Center, two of the best welterweights in the world will put it all on the line in a battle for the top contender position. In addition, light heavyweight (No. 5) Anthony Johnson (17-4, fighting out of Boca Raton, Fla.) is back in the Octagon® after an impressive decision victory over Phil Davis in his return to the UFC earlier this year. The hard-hitting “Rumble” will take on Brazilian star Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (21-5, fighting out of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) as he primes himself for title contention.
