    Some news for our friends in the Austin area. KVUE has signed a two-year deal to air Texans preseason games. The agreement says the ABC affiliate must show at least two preseason games each year.

    KVUE will air the week 1 and week 2 games against Carolina and San Francisco, respectively. The week 3 game against New Orleans will be nationally televised on CBS.

    Texans preseason games were previously aired on KBVO and KEYE.

    In another article I read, the week 4 game against Minnesota will air on the KVUE weather and traffic channel.

    Agreed. It's embarassing, and theres a reason why the NFL network never shows the ABC 13 feed for the replay. Even Jacksonville has a more professional looking production.

    The Texans deserve better. It was bad enough that they started HD broadcasts years after everyone else, but now its basically pseduo-HD which I feel is almost worse.
