Why can't the Mtn. schedule better?
By far my biggest complaint about the Mtn. is the inability to televise ALL of the conferences games. Clearly the money making programs for the station are men's football and basketball. If this is so, why can't every game be televised? As Brandon showed us, it's not like they are full of intriguing programs and they don't have spots for these games. I remember last year, BYU was playing Air Force in basketball and the Mtn. didn't cover the game. BYU was ranked 1st in the conference and Air Force was around 3rd. It was a big game and would have attracted a lot of viewers. So I assumed another game would be airing, but I turned on the Mtn. a few minutes after tip-off and they were showing a re-run of some stupid women's volleyball game that happened over a week ago!! It's not that difficult. You get together with the teams in the conference and make sure that no conference games conflict with one another. If they do you make a 2nd channel to insure ALL of the money making games (basketball and football) are on T.V. What a joke.

I am so proud of you Walt! this is a big step for you. I just hope you post again before the end of the season.
And don't worry about re-runs of women's volleyball, there are about 30 people that care--the players and there parents
My first item of business is to welcome my friend Walt to the blogging community. Secondly, I agree that the Mountain is awful. And thirdly, who is this Brandon character?
I agree miller. When walt referenced Brandon I had no idea who he was talking about.
