Southlake football: TV ratings higher than Rangers, little less than Mavs

By David McNabb

Southlake Carroll's televised whupping off Shreveport Evangel last Thursday registered 61,000 viewers in Dallas-Fort Worth. That's better than the 43,000 the Rangers average and just less than the 68,000 the Mavs averaged last season.

Broadcast on KTXA-Channel 21, Carroll's 43-16 victory over Shreveport Evangel Christian delivered a 2.2/4 Household Rating/Share in Dallas-Fort Worth. This represents 52,000 Homes in the area and 61,000 Total viewers.

FSN reports the Rangers have averaged a 1.9 rating in Dallas this season while the Mavs averaged a 2.9 during last season.

Carroll's upcoming 2007 nationally televised matchup with Concord(Calif.) DeLaSalle could set ratings records. DeLaSalle will return a top junior QB and nationally rated linebacker next season. Carroll holds the mark for the highest rated high school broadcast in D-FW with 94,000 viewers (4.1 share) for its 2004 state final win. In '05, Carroll drew a 3.3 rating in its final and had a 2.4 rating in its '03 state final.

[slorch]

they would have been higher if we wouldn't have gotten the Ranger game in Houston.

Slorch- "Dear FSSW, how stupid could you be? do you really think we would rather watch the MLB team that we don't care about in this part of Texas anyway, or a prime high school football matchup?"

FSSW reply, " Duh-uh."

[BigRing5311]

slorch...I really believe FSSW would have put the SLC game on if it were totally their call. I think $$$ for the pro sponsorship outranked the better venue. I'm with you though.

[Slim-Rob]

SLC is always beating the Rangers... :D Smithson Valley too...:D

Why would they show a team in our Houston market, that, for 1/2 of the season is blacked out anyway down here. That is a funky marketing contract that lets them shut off the Rangers in their home market but forces it to markets that don't even care...

We should have been watching SLC- Evangel.

[drgnbkr]

SLC is always beating the Rangers... :D Smithson Valley too...:D


Uh Oh!.....:D

that was wrong, funny as he--, but soooooo wrong:D :D :D

[lonny23]

FSN shows Houston where you'd think you'd get Texas, too. I somehow get most of the games for both teams, but they weren't worth my viewing attention this year. BTW, SLC would have lower ratings if they had more games on TV and that was a big-name opponent, too.

[supercentex]

How awesome would it be to see all fans in Texas show up for this game and sell it out. And, all wear green to deck it all out in green.

Get a corporate sponser to hand out green t-shirts to fans that don't have them on.

[dragons08]

haha...i read the thrad name and was thinking..wasn't that in 2004?! haha!:D
and 02..

[ScottS]

So, maybe all SLC games should be on.

[my3sons]

So, maybe all SLC games should be on.

Sure wish the SLC - Keller Central game was on. The visitors seating is horrible at best.

[rangerpride]

haha...i read the thrad name and was thinking..wasn't that in 2004?! haha!:D
Me too, everytime I see Rangers, I think SV. Never was a baseball fan, so could care less about the Texas Rangers.

I was thinking, "Ratings? Our game wasn't televised???"

[rangerpride]

SLC is always beating the Rangers... :D Smithson Valley too...:D

Keep drinking the haterade, it's cool. :D

Judson would have faired no better than SV did against them. Wish SV could have played in the weaker D1 playoffs. Then we could have avoided the SLC dynasty like the Rockets have all these years.

But since you wanna bring it up...

Sorry we have gone the "weaker". It's not like we can choose...

I'm not drinkin' any haterade...my team has 6 state titles, with 1 in the past 5 years. SV has...let me count....

Obviously, you don't get to choose. Yes, we all know how many championships SV has compare to Judson, but if SLC would give someone else a turn, we'd have one by now too.

It's not like WE get to CHOOSE which year we a great team, so we can win it in a year that there isn't a dynasty hogging all the D2 titles and losing 1 game in 4 years, like SLC. Who's done that recently in D1? Has it ever been done in D1? If so, it was when I was a glimmer in my dad's eye.:D

Judson has their titles, props to 'em. When and if they ever knock off SLC (you may get your chance this year if things work out and SLC goes D1), you can dog us all you want for having ZERO. Beat the best, then dog us for losing in the finals. We tried twice and failed, but came close the 2nd time (closer than anyone not named Katy has EVER come in the last 5 seasons).

I'm actually hoping SLC goes D2 so we can have another crack at ending the dynasty. You know what they say: "Third time's a charm."

lol, third time's the charm is true. Ya'll'll (can you do that? ya'll will...ya'll'll...i know u can't...but it's cool...) win one some time.

Judson won state 92, 93, 95, and was back in 96...

is there a better team in the 00's without a title? i doubt it. other possible choices would be lview(no, really), abilene, midland, carter, twhs, and westlake.

a compliment, and only slightly back handed. i mean, the bills were the best team in the 90's never to win a super bowl, too.

[stevefoxsc]

well congrats that shows Tx football is the real deal and not some joke.

[rangerpride]

a compliment, and only slightly back handed. i mean, the bills were the best team in the 90's never to win a super bowl, too.

Enough with the Bills comparison already.:rolleyes:

The Bills lost to multiple teams in the Super Bowl. We've lost to the same team, SLC. And so has everyone else the past 5 seasons not named Katy.

If you're going to compare us to someone, we're more like the Redskins who couldn't beat Dallas until last season. :D

What did Dallas win, like 14 in a row vs. Washington?

i was referring to makin the big dance, but not grabbing the brass ring. seems like there was another team in your way too. refer to yourself as you will. i'll do the same, tyvm.

The only other team that was "in our way" was in 4A in 2001, Denton Ryan, who ran a very similar offense to SLC (no huddle, spread offense).

That accounts for our 3 trips to the state finals, 1 in 4A, 2 in 5A.

so it sounds a lot like the bills,--dallas twice, giants once in 3 of their tries.

Why is this such a big deal? The Rangers play like 3-4 days a week... SLC had their first televised game since December.... if the Rangers played a big game that was the only one televised, they might... might just beat that rating...

[dragonsdaddy]

i believe without proof that br was referencing the ratings of a hs football game between a texas power and whoever vs the rangers, not slc specifically. i happen to know that there is a move afoot to create a series of texas hs games on a weekly basis, all of which will likely outdraw the hapless rangers(as opposed to the hapful sv rangers). just like more cowbell is a good thing, so is more hs football and less celebrity poker, or mud-bowling, for that matter.

the interesting comparison would be if they scheduled two Texas powers or SLC on the same day as say a Rangers/Yankee game or a Ranger/Red Sox game. Something tells me the Rangers might make it close if that were the scenario.

Nolan can drill the "Fraud" and then he can charge and Nolan can beat his *** ala Robin Ventura style, all while Clemens sits on the bench thinking of that hummer he conned out of Georgie Porgie for his early retirement.

You SLC fans love to push buttons... my turn...:D

Nah, it's more like the Redsox if you want to compare. Everyone wants them to beat the EVIL EMPIRE each year (Yankees) but they just can't get over the hump against the best team money can buy (professional athletes kids, kids tranferring there to keep the dynasty going, etc.:p ). But the Sox finally had their day and everyone rejoiced that the wicked witch was finally dead and the curse of the Great Bambino was lifted.

dont ever compare the BoSox with a Texas HS football team. Sure no one cares what happend prior to 1918, but the Sox won 5 World Titles from 1903-1918 including the first world series ever. The whole evil empire came into effect back in 2002 when John Henry and Georige Porgie got into their war of words.

Ok, maybe you prefer the Lakers as a good example? 3-4 year dynasty comes crashing to an end when they lure away All-Star talent from other teams;) only to have all those offensive weapons blow up in their face in the finals vs. the defensive minded Pistons. :cool:

In this scenario the Pistons would be the SV Rangers, BTW...:D


Disclaimer:not a knock on SLC's defense which is playing some of it's best football in years. Got nothin but love for your team, just fighting fire with fire.

But keep dreaming. This dynasty's days are numbered. And the end is coming SOONER, rather than late!r (OU reference totally by accident):o

i guess the difference would be that the red sox actually won the ring. nothing wrong with aiming high. i'd expect nothing else. we as slc fans are difficult to harm with such barbs as our array of hardware is very protective, in an armor-kind of way.

So you are going on record that you will beat SLC in December?

[rangerpride]

So you are going on record that you will beat SLC in December?

Would I be a true fan of my team if I conceded defeat this early??? Of course, I'm going on record saying SV will beat SLC this December. Of course, for that to happen you guys need to stay in D2 this year. Don't take the easy road to the title in D1, we don't want to hear "Yeah, but you didn't have to play the Dragons this year" when we hold up the trophy.

Like I said, third time's the charm.:cool:

[rangerpride]

Talk, talk, talk.....:cool:

That's all any of us can do until December, oh wise one...;)

You have a completely different team and so does SV. We both lost a ton to graduation, so last year is history, and until the future becomes the present, all either of us can do is "talk,talk,talk.":cool:

[rangerpride]

i guess the difference would be that the red sox actually won the ring. nothing wrong with aiming high. i'd expect nothing else. we as slc fans are difficult to harm with such barbs as our array of hardware is very protective, in an armor-kind of way.

That's funny, I thought any mention of the words "recruiting" or "steroids" sets Dragon fans into a "fire breathing" frenzy.

Kinda like stirring the Hornets nest.:D

Don't worry though, like the SOX, SV will have their day in the sun too.

The only thing that will make it sweeter is if we get to take out SLC on the way. Like I've said many times, I am PRAYING you guys stay D2. To be the best, you have to beat the best...

Does this mean you only have 86 more years to wait??

[DragonFan]

To be the best, you have to beat the best...

And the Dragons have beat the best!

[rangerpride]

Does this mean you only have 86 more years to wait??

Touche... :rolleyes:

no, it's closer to 86 more DAYS, that's about 3 months for you mathematically challenged folk.;) Late December, everything will change. Until then, good luck to the Dragons, we'll be waiting for you at the Dome.

[rangerpride]

And the Dragons have beat the best!

True, no denying that that. Like I said you guys have one of the greatest HS football dynastys, but all dynastys must come to an end.

[rangermum]

You're my idol Rangerpride........WE BELIEVE...........and we bleed navy!:D :D :D :D

[DragonFan]

I think there are several programs that would be concidered dynasties now if it was not for the timing of having great programs during the same time as other's slightly better program. I think what SV has done since moving to 5A is almost as remarkable as what SLC has done. Lufkin could have had 3 state crowns as well but the have 3 losses to SLC. This list could include Abilene who had two undefeated season until they lost to SLC. Plano last year was undefeated until SLC. Katy could have 2 championships but lost one to SLC and can claim the only vicory over SLC in 4+ years.

Plano is down this year and Abilene is really down this year so they do not qualify as dynasties. Katy, Lufkin, and SV are all great programs that could have been as dominate as SLC if SLC was not having it's success.

[dragonsdaddy]

is there a better team in the 00's without a title? i doubt it. other possible choices would be lview(no, really), abilene, midland, carter, twhs, and westlake.
interestingly, a ranger fan took umbrage at what i'd consider a compliment to start this round of hijinks. i guess i'll stop with the compliments if it offends others.

[farmerfan]

Does this mean you only have 86 more years to wait??

as the NY Post headlines read in 2004, "We'll See you in 2090" :D One of my favorite headlines after that World Series. I guess you all can tell SV you will see them in 2092.

No one took "umbrage" at the compliment you speak of. It was your next "compliment" that I took "umbrage" at:

a compliment, and only slightly back handed. i mean, the bills were the best team in the 90's never to win a super bowl, too.

Anytime anyone has used that "reference" in association with SV, it has not been in a complimentary fashion. Hence the "umbrage" taken.:cool:

i guess i could have said the the rangers were equal to the oilers, or the cubs, or some neer do well team. there are plenty of teams who'd love to have the wins/record the rangers have enjoyed. i guess the truth hurts. sv is still the best team, imo, to never grab the brass ring.

I guess on High School terms, SV would be this decades version of Arlington Lamar. Close on so many occasions only to be upended by the eventual state champ on many of those attempts.

:rolleyes:
I would think we'd have to lose 1 or 2 more 5A state finals before we could be compared to the Bills. As for the Oilers, and Cubs: when have they had any post season success AT ALL?

The Oilers are best known for being on the wrong end of the greatest comeback in NFL history (against those same Bills you lovingly compare us to with your "compliments"). Other than that, what have they ever accomplished?

Can't remember the Rangers ever blowing a 35-3 lead in the 2nd half to lose the game. Especially not while milking the clock in the 2nd half with long drives in classic Coach Hill fashion.;)

I would think we'd have to lose 1 or 2 more 5A state finals before we could be compared to the Bills. As for the Oilers, and Cubs: when have they had any post season success AT ALL?

The Oilers are best known for being on the wrong end of the greatest comeback in NFL history (against those same Bills you lovingly compare us to with your "compliments"). Other than that, what have they ever accomplished?

Can't remember the Rangers ever blowing a 35-3 lead in the 2nd half to lose the game. Especially not while milking the clock in the 2nd half with long drives in classic Coach Hill fashion.;)

What we have here is a healthy rivalry, I'd say....It is fun to be a fan of, what is regularly, one of the top 5 teams the state.

No questioning that. Here's hoping it stays that way, only the results are reversed, of course.:D

we will get ours... its kind of yall to worry about us though....

Iremember Arlington Lamar thinking that same thing, but funny thing is they always ran into someone who was just a tad better. Permian in 88,89 and 91, Aldine in 90. MIdland Lee in 94, Marcus in 95, John Tyler in 2000 and The Woodlands in 2003. I really hope for your sake yall get your ring, you have a great program and a outstanding coach and good kids who play hard every game.

Southlake football: TV ratings higher than Rangers, little less than Mavs

Southlake Carroll's televised whupping off Shreveport Evangel last Thursday registered 61,000 viewers in Dallas-Fort Worth. That's better than the 43,000 the Rangers average and just less than the 68,000 the Mavs averaged last season.

Broadcast on KTXA-Channel 21, Carroll's 43-16 victory over Shreveport Evangel Christian delivered a 2.2/4 Household Rating/Share in Dallas-Fort Worth. This represents 52,000 Homes in the area and 61,000 Total viewers.

FSN reports the Rangers have averaged a 1.9 rating in Dallas this season while the Mavs averaged a 2.9 during last season.

Carroll's upcoming 2007 nationally televised matchup with Concord(Calif.) DeLaSalle could set ratings records. DeLaSalle will return a top junior QB and nationally rated linebacker next season. Carroll holds the mark for the highest rated high school broadcast in D-FW with 94,000 viewers (4.1 share) for its 2004 state final win. In '05, Carroll drew a 3.3 rating in its final and had a 2.4 rating in its '03 state final.
its too bad no one cares about baseball??? and basketball plays too many games to have a high high rating...i bet if you looked at the stas for mavs vs spurs it would beat the southlake carroll....
