Ping: Mountain West fans

[JeeberD]

So the Miners are playing UNLV tonight, but the only way to catch the game on TV is if you live in the 2% of the nation that actually carries The Mtn. (http://www.themtn.tv/mtn/) Since I'm not in that tiny area (and neither are the vast majority of Miner fans) I was wondering if y'all know of any websites that might stream the channel live. Something along the lines of ChannelSurfing.net, which has been useful to me when I need to watch games on CSTV...

Thanks in advance...

I'm one of the eight people in America with The Mtn.

I don't know that anyone streams the channel live, but given that most cable networks refuse to carry it, I wouldn't be hopeful.

Welcome to our pathetic world, casued by our pathetic excuse for a conference commisioner Craig Thompson and his band of near sighted AD's.

CSTV XXL was a viable option last year as they had a lot of live games, in fact I caught every BYU game but one that was not on a satellite channel I could get. This year has been pretty lean however as most of the offerings on CSTV are only audio files and about half them pay per listen at that.

I hope the MWC gets this straight before next Season.

People criticize the NHL for going with Vs., but the Mountain West going with The Mountain was 100x stupider.

Meanwhile, the MAC will play on ESPN whenever the channel gives them the chance and no one cares about that conference either, but at least they're not shortsighted enough to think they're important enough to have their own channel.

I can't imagine what those fools were thinking when they concocted this idea. It's almost as bad as when they moved the basketball conference tournament from Vegas (where it doesn't snow in March and where people will go for the heck of it..) to Denver (where it snows sometimes in May).

At least they got that one right and put it back in Vegas, but...that's after playing to empty seats for two years.

I think it's a Mickey Mouse conference and nothing I've seen in the three years I've lived in MWC country has done anything to change my opinion.

Ah well, thanks fellas. At least I can get the audio on the UTEP website...

Here I was thinking you were talking about a late season football game, not a pretty much meaningless early season basketball game.
