According to NFL officials, the NFC will use the facilities at SMU and should there be poor weather the team would use the new indoor facility that is set to open at Highland Park High School.

How embarrassing that they would have to go to HP High in the event of bad weather.

Are you reading this east stang?

not yet I don't think. After the collapse of the big tent they started practicing at Standridge Stadium in Carrollton...and then started practicing at Jerryworld

Cowboys don't plan to rebuild an indoor facility for a while. That's why the NFC team is headed to SMU/HP. Valley Ranch was the original site, but got nixed because they won't have an indoor facility.

that is cool but why wouldn't they practice at TCU w/ indoor facilities available?

AFC team is practicing at TCU.
Will be cool for the students at both schools to have something Super Bowl-related happening on campus.

So, if the Cowboys were to reach the Superbowl, would they really have to practice at SMU as opposed to their normal indoor practice facility just because it happens to be the Superbowl venue?

Read much? See above and the article. Valley ranch has no indoor facility...it COLLAPSED...article also states Cowboys would use their own facility. NFC would use Valley Ranch, but in case of bad weather, they would then have to pack up and move a long way. With SMU, they can bus close by to HP in case of bad weather.

Yes, I read quite often. It was stated above that they now use Jerryworld as their inddor facility if they need one. Therefore, I was was asking if Jerryworld would be available to them as their "normal" indoor facility since it would also be serving as the actual game site.

Dude, lose the attitude.
