Looks like tsn isn't going to show the WEC event any time soon. Their site has no listing for it and I checked my guide for the next week and don't see it. Who wants to watch an MMA event a month later after they already know the results?

I alredy emailed them and I think other canadian fans should too.

Do you really think TSN is going to show MMA over hockey?

I have about five different tsn channels on my satelite plus 8 or 9 hockey channels. I'm sure they could squeeze it in somewhere. I'd even take it at midnight after hockey. Just set the dvr and watch it tomorrow. Two weeks later blows because I'm sure I'll have heard the results by then.

They do have an alternate feed on cable too, but WEC isn't listed for tonight

I did this awhile back for the "Fight Network" and it seemed to have worked. I even changed providers from Express Vue to Starchoice for this exact reason. Express view even has the Fight network now so it shows that these kind of "Grass Roots" movements do work.

So lets all call our providers and send out a message. "We want Showtime"

If a Mod could Sticky this for a week or so it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx for your time MMA Fans
I'm with rogers cable and The Fight Network (Ch. 427,) shows all ELITEXC cards and it's only 2.99/month.
