I'm tired of waiting for CSTV, Comcast, Mountain West Conference, DishNetwork and DirectTV to hash out their differences so that the Mtn. can get on more mainstream television.
In case you don't know,
the Mtn. is a cable station devoted to the teams of the Mountain West Conference - local teams such as Colorado State and Air Force, other teams like BYU, Utah, TCU, New Mexico, UNLV, San Diego State and my personal favorite, Wyoming.
Right now, the station is mainly located on upper-tier sports programming packages with Comcast, the cable giant which owns part of the Mtn. About the only place in America you can get it on basic cable is in
Rock Springs and Green River, Wyoming (where I used to be the sports editor for the local newspaper).
The only sports bar that I know of that carries the Mtn. is, ironically, ESPNZone on the 16th Street Mall in downtown Denver.
I'm sure there's more.
So, as a favor to all us MWC fans, I want to compile a list of all the public locations that carry the Mtn.
You can either e-mail me at
eiselj@yourhub.com, or
register on the site and post below about any places you know of or tips you have for finding the Mtn. I'll just keep adding onto this list until the Mtn. is added to one of the major satellite stations.
I would recommend calling ahead of time to double check on availability.
