Yahoo! Sports App calls us "SM"

Postby Tx_Mustang10 » Tue Nov 26, 2013 5:05 pm

I'm not sure if anybody else uses Yahoo's "Yahoo! Sports" app for game updates on their phone, but it is a pretty good app. However, their name for Southern Methodist's men's basketball team is "SM" as opposed to SMU. It's miserable and frustrates me every time I see it. I sent them a number of emails last season, and it finally got changed a few weeks before the end of the season, but this season it is back to SM. My emails have been ineffective this season, but if anyone else wants to send them an email, I'd really appreciate it.

Since I'm feeling incredibly lazy, if you type out an email basically saying what the problem is and such, I'll be happy to copy and paste it and send them an email. I would imagine other posters would too.

Thanks.
Edit: Maybe reference basketball too:

SMU's men's basketball team is SMU, not SM.

while you are at it. Sports illustrated is lacking AAC for basketball

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basket ... nferences/

Also the basketball scores drop down arrow lacks AAC as well

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basket ... p25/today/


they didn't have AAC football either but I filled out this LONG survey and kept saying they were lacking AAC football scores. finally they at least have that. But you think they check basketball.

The problem with that is that people would mistake us for Missouri.
