I refuse to sign-up for Directv just so I can watch MWC football games on The Mtn. I care little for all the commentaries, coach interviews, blah blah blah that are the supposed added benefits of The Mtn.
I continue to resign myself to catching the sportsnews highlights.
Good luck with everyone else!
BTHO BYU
That's what I want to know. Sadly, I think I already know the answer.
whatever!!! that is the most ridiculous argument i have ever heard. i can't believe i read that.
The MWC left ESPN because the Connecticut beancounters wanted to schedule MWC games on Tues, Wed, Thur, Fri and Sat.
Playing Tue or Wed games would be a disaster for game preparation.
As bad as the television coverage has been, NOT having to play weeknight games and Saturday night games every week is better.
Shame on the MWC for not negotiating better and resolving this before agreeing to the contract. That's a big "too bad for you" to the fans.
What a ridiculously horrible and short-sighted agreement. It's now not only time to fire Craig Thompson for allowing this to happen, it's time to fire whoever it was that HADN'T fired Thompson ALREADY, thereby allowing "it" to continue.
Does anybody know if this game will be given an internet broadcast?
BTW, people who say "Only in Utah" are really showing their ignorance.
