When attending SMU home games, I try to get news on the upcoming game in the hotel, but rarely find coverage on the local TV channels. Which one does the best job for SMU football? I will be up for the Nevada win, so let me know channel and times.

TXCN occasionally will have some news on the mustangs, but I stress occasionally.

By then television will be obsolete and we'll get our news via holographic projection.

Don't start complaining about not getting any coverage when we aren't winning. You know how the media is, all they would say is how bad the Mustangs are and all the problems they "think" we have. This would be terrible for recruiting in the local area and should a recruit be on a visit from out of town, we don't want him to see this either.

Just look at what the DMN did last week. So gang, just count our blessings that the local media hasn't decided to make our Mustangs a project.

Or maybe a high definition receiver chip implanted in the human brain.

Sorry AusTxPony,

Unfortunately, the Park Cities People does not even find SMU football to be worth covering. Instead, we are able to see PonySnob sipping wine at some fancy HP function.

:shock:

They never write an SMU story. Even when we take all of their marginal prospects, they still do not write a story.

Do you have a subscription to it up there in 'the northeast'? I don't think the PCP is online. Nor is the Park Cities News. But I could be wrong.

Doesn't really matter anyway, the topic of this thread is "Which Local Channel" which is all about television coverage...not newspapers. Sir troll really needs to look into getting his reading comprehension level up...maybe a course in remedial reading would help.

I hear Ohio State has a pretty good remedial reading program.

You correctly point out the fact that I do not have a subscription. However, one of my dear friends from the Hilltop used to work there. I do know that they do not cover SMU.
