But for those who haven't heard (I think SjT put this on the list a 
while back), "The Mountain", as it's known, is the prime shining example 
of Comcast's hypocrisy in this whole cable operator vs. Big Ten mess.  
Comcast is the broadcast partner for The Mountain, and they've been 
pushing every cable operator in the Rockies to carry it on basic, even 
in those states that don't have Mountain West schools.  On one side of 
the country, they use one argument, and on the other side, the play 
against that same argument.

A lot of my friends and co-workers who didn't pick up satellite this 
past fall for football or basketball season are either going to do it 
this fall, or they're waiting for AT&T U-Verse to come to their 
neighborhood.  Everyone is sick of Comcast.
