For those amongst us here in the U.S., who get OLN TV on our satellite or cable systems, Fiesta de San Fermin will be on at 7 PM for the next several days. A chance to see the running of the bulls in Pamplona that many enjoy.

You might also note that Lance Armstrong's fight to gain the yellow jersey in the Tour De France has began, and can be seen several times a day on the same channel, including live at 8:30 AM each day.

We're talking about a run on history by a man who's fought back, and won the battle against cancer

It don't get better than this, and as long as he keeps on proving he's the best, more and more money flows into cancer research, and the battle against this disease. what an inspiration.

You get equal time, Wolf! wink

The Outdoor Life Network???? I don't think we have that here in Columbus, Ohio, USA. Shame ESPN isn't carrying it anymore as they have in past years. I saw some of the clips of today's running on the news through.

Saludos, MadridMan

Thanks Wolf,
For letting us know about the Running of the Bulls. I do have the Outdoor channel, but seldom watch it. I read in the B.B.C. News that some PETA protesters ran naked through the crowd. What a hoot!! laugh

You are right about Armstrong, what a man! smile

I remember seeing that 2002 coverage last year...I was so excited they were going to show it...and it stunk to high heaven. There was some shot of the ESPN2 "Party Crew" downing wine and shots of drunkards...er...Americans and Kiwis in the street.

They really ought to do a Bio piece on "El Divino" for some REAL San Fermin history and flavor!

The TVE Internacional coverage was great, but they didn't show the 12th or 13th encierro... frown
