An ESPN3 option...

For those of you who cannot make it to Wash-Griz that would like to follow the Griz and the FCS playoffs on ESPN3: "viewers on U.S. college campuses and military bases are always able to access ESPN3.com."

So take your laptop or phone to a nearby college and set yourself up a little tailgate action. LOL You may want to plan ahead and see if the Wi-Fi requires a password to sign in but seriously no matter what state you live in there should be a college somewhere within driving distance to watch the Griz if you want to bad enough. If you don't have a laptop it may be possible to watch from computers somewhere on campus, I know some college libraries are open to public so find a way to get er done Griz Nation.
 
Question about ESPN3 and Dish Network. I was looking to see if I could watch ESPN3 but it always takes me to the box that asked me to verify my cable or internet provider. Dish Network is not on that list. Why can't a person just subscribe through ESPN and get a pass code? Just curious. Or have I not looked hard enough?

Satellite providers do not support ESPN3. You have to have a cable provider of some sort.
 
I spoke with a service rep with ESPN3 and the deal is for it to be available the ISP or cable provider has to pay for ESPN3 in a contract that is likely past on to customers in additional fees. So ESPN3 is set up so that individual customers cannot simply subscribe or not but rather an entire company must be on board or you are screwed if they aren't.

I have the same problem with my ISP at home, they do not care to pay the $$$$ to have ESPN3 as part of their service which is understandable considering it is likely costly so while ESPN would like customers to take their anger out on our ISP's the real problem is the corporate pigs running ESPN3.
 
Shouldn't have to worry about ESPN3 the games should be on Regular TV like they deserve to be, ESPN bought the "Television Right's" and then bury them on an Internet feed which is not Television. Fans need to come here and help us fight this problem that effects every FCS School in the Nation - CLICK HERE -> https://www.facebook.com/events/1479409388951063/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
 
I sent facebook messages to Tester and Baucus to see if they would send a letter to ESPN again, it won't get them my vote, but it is the least they could do by actually giving the people of Montana something that they want. I will send Daines an email tomorrow. Streaming games are not even close to live tv!!
