This. I guess it would help the Shreveport Saints fans if it was the “Louisiana” Saints. But it’s not.
Shreveport to Dallas - approximately 190 miles.
Shreveport to New Orleans - approximately 325 miles.
It’s a dammed if you do, damned if you don’t proposition for the networks.
It's more about the TV coverage area. The station covers east Texas. This map shows the last time there was a conflict. The yellow is the Saints game. The red is the cowgirls. You can see the bleedover into Texas of the Saints game. That's the problem. In south lousiana there's a nice border there. I've heard there was a time when that wasn't the case and they had these same issues down there.
The reverse of that shows a large chunk of our state not getting the Saints game which should be unacceptable to all Saints fans.
