No doubt on being supporter, but we were either kicked to the curb or this was an oversight. Again, I agree big supporter - so, oversight.

Great effort made to have all the other teams displayed. Plenty of room to add SMU to the mix.

I'm sure Ray would agree. Someone dropped the ball.

Happy all the other teams are in town, but Dallas is SMU territory and we have a big game Saturday.

Ray & Steven know exactly what they're doing. they're in the business of making money, and what's good for the businesses of HPV is good for them. out of towners spend money. they've got the SMU crowd already. last weekend was parents weekend, so that's when they needed to display, this weekend they need to draw in Ark/BU/TT/etc...

All obvious. Again, plenty of room to take a few flags down of the other teams and add SMU. If you're in the business of making money, you include everyone - especially the one right down the road and here every weekend - not just the ones passing through.

Agree with you SMU89 and hope a few SMU flags emerge before this weekend.

OU and UT flags up last weekend but have consistently seen SMU flags up there. No doubt Ray is a big supporter so I do give them a pass on this one.

As long as we accept SMU football as an afterthought, then that's what we will be.

Pass

When do we quit giving out "passes"? Baloney. The fat cat needs to Pony Up! There is no excuse for this BS.

Boycott. Was headed to Starbucks in HP Village because I needed to get the Shell station there to pull a nail out of my tire. I think I'll suffer with the nail for awhile and get my coffee at Knox St. instead.

There's $2 those guys will never see again!!

Ha! Better think again. With HP Village being a premium sponsor of ponyfans.com, you better watch your step - they might have a spy on Knox St.

If they're going to be an SMU supporter, it should be a constant, not a "when it's convenient" or "we need to market to others more". People who don't know they always support SMU won't know any better unless that support for SMU is on display all the time.

Poor PR move on their part.
