so thats really the reason? i can see it if it was grass ... geez

we are so lucky in the DFW area to have so many great HS and a few college facilities, and Texas Stadium. I bet no other metropolitan area in the USA comes close .... maybe Houston if they'd let the HS's use Reliant Stadium.

now why on earth HP & Stephenville would play at Fouts in Denton (per the DMN) amazes me. That place is BAD !!!

Have you seen the NCAA Final Four for volleyball? Wherever they host it, it's always packed.

Plus, they have to put down the floor and that takes a while. So I can see why they don't host any high school games. Not to mention, volleyball playoffs start this next weekend. I'm sure Phil will give us a post about that pretty soon.

OK, maybe a final 4 -- MAYBE. but Big XII is still in conference play - has nothing to with with why the Alamodome has not been used for playoff games.

The Big 12 just ended conference play yesterday.

Besides VB, we don't know what else is going on. How about you call and ask and report it back to us.

It was a joke, bro.

See the green smiley face? That means "joke". :D :D :D :D :D :D

I propose we have an emoticon with a Rose in it's mouth. (Why I just requested that on this board, and this thread, I have no clue. I'm kinda out of it right now.)

I think it has to do with the Saints and the NFL ...they have a game a week later and I guess they don't want high school playoffs to tear up the field ...well go back to La., your gonna lose anyway...

It may have to do with them having to re-stripe the field.
