Dish: Pick up the MTN channel and I'll switch back, after having switched to DirecTV two years ago for the specific purpose of watching MWC sports.

For next season, any network that offers a chance to see all of our BYU games, I will make the switch.

I am surrently with Verizon Fios that offers everything except the Mtn.

I am in Riverside County of Southern California. I am between the cities of Riverside and Temecula.

If we would all make this commitment, there would be more than one network competing for our business.

Someone tell us how we can make this happen. Someone tell us how our messages here could be transfered to all the networks.

Hey Optimist,

We already are supposed to have one of those networks that cover all of our games. But some baffoon(s) at the Mtn, sold the rights to this weekends TCU @ BYU, and AF @ UTAH games to their Comcast affiliated friends at Versus...

See the Mountain, and Comcast are too friendly with each other for my comfort. And Comcast is most likely retalliating because they cannot get in on the Sunday ticket action that DirecTv has exclusive rights to.

So they hurt the fans by not allowing DirecTv fans the ability to watch these games. Because Comcast and DirecTv are in a pissing match.

Here is the Deal, even if you could get the Mtn channel, you would not be able to watch this weekend, unless you have Versus. Thats right, DirecTv customers cannot get Versus right now.

Shame on all parties involved DirecTv, Comcast, Versus, and the Mountian. I hope the Utes and BYU leave the Mountain West Conference, so that we get away from an idiotic network that cannot broadcast in HD, and sells rights to the games that they own!
