Cleburne Vs. Waxahachie should be a better game to televise than Garland Vs. N . Garland because Waxahachie is ranked 4th in state and Cleburne is still in the hunt for the palyoffs.
The voting is unfair also - because Garland ISd schools are 5A and Cleburne is 4A- plus Garland has more computers for the students. Cleburne student population is about 1700 compared to Garland being over or near 3000 per school.

There are not but a small number of schools that are 8-0 and rated as highly as we are in Campbells' football news. You can't legitimately say that this is not newsworthy and the big schools that are 6-2 are. I have been watching your station exclusively for quite a few years and you routinely show info on all of the large schools and offer the "big games" as choices on Friday Night Flights, but "big school" doesn't always equal "big game".
I don't expect that you would report about all the schools, just be "fair & balanced" with who you do report about - and try looking outside of the big boys for a change!!
I hope our coaching staff can be convinced to give your station the time of day once they are in the state championship game even though you haven't afforded them that same respect during their incredible season.
Sad, very sad indeed.
Maybe the White House has it right after all......maybe Fox isn't a legitimate network that reports NEWS??
