The ESPN-FCS Playoff saga continues

From KPAX...

What rivalry?

Fans of the Bobcats and Grizzlies have united in trying to find a way to get their disappointment across to ESPN when it comes to broadcasting the Football Subdivision Playoffs.

Word spread across the state Monday that Montana fans would not be able to watch (on television) their Bobcats and Grizzlies take the field on December 3rd for the 2nd round of the FCS playoffs, and now, responses from fans have began to manifest in the form of a rapidly growing petition on the social media giant Facebook.

Currently, there are more than 5,700 people who have joined "Petition to have ESPN Have Feeds of FCS Playoff Games".

Another 38,000 have been invited to join the page which began at 2a.m. on Tuesday.

The numbers continue to rapidly swell throughout Tuesday evening.

The Worldwide Leader is certainly getting an earful for this.
