IN THIS ISSUE...
Finally! The mask ban has been lifted and there’s football in the air….SO, ARE YOU READY
FOR SOME FOOTBALL?!! We are and thank goodness! It could not come any sooner. KTSM
9 aired this year’s Super Bowl and wow! What a great game with the LA Rams edging out
the surprising Cincinnati Bengals. This was the most viewed Super Bowl in El Paso history!
Sunday Night Football will once again feature the top games of the week. Check the latest
edition of the Ultimate Football Guide for the entire NFL schedule on KTSM.com. UFG will
feature both UTEP and NMSU teams and schedules with great insight from our Sports Team
of Colin Deaver and Sammy Guzman. UTEP shocked everyone last year with their first bowl
appearance in decades. NMSU found themselves rebuilding once again. But that all goes
out the window with the Battle of I-10. The UTEP-NMSU rivalry is legendary and looks to be
a real barn burner this year, once again.

High School football has become one of the most entertaining sporting events in El Paso.
Some of the things these young athletes do on the field are spectacular and I am sure if you
are a football fan or have someone you know that plays for one of our area High Schools
that you will be in the stands as well.This year’s Ultimate Football Guide marks the14th year
that we have produced the magazine and the third year that it has been a great digital asset.
Thanks to all our loyal viewers, we can once again bring you the best in football. In 2022
we will once again showcase the KTSM Fine 9 which are the top 9 players in High School
Football. The Ultimate Football Guide has all the schedules of your favorite teams as well as
interviews with some of the best athletes in the Borderland. The Ultimate Football guide is
your go to guide for football.
We know that Sunday Night Football will once again be the most viewed program on TV.
We will resume our coverage with the kickoff game of the LA Rams and the Buffalo Bills on
September 11. I think we all believe that Buffalo probably should have been in the Super Bowl
but that is how the ball bounced.Buffalo is the preseason favorite to take it all this year. My
sleeper team is the Chargers. But wait: Tom Brady is back again with a loaded team again
so who knows what is going to happen?
Please, enjoy the 2022 14th edition of the Ultimate Football Guide and we look forward to
another great season of Sunday Night Football only on KTSM 9.
Yours truly,
David Candelaria
Vice President & General Manager KTSM 9, NBC and KTSM.com
