Rangers lose to Oakland... Game 2

GO RANGERS!!!

Rangers lose to Oakland... Games 1 & 2. We are now 5.5 games behind them to get a spot in the playoffs. This is not looking good! 

 Our Offense wasted Yu Darvish's last 5 starts by not hitting very well! The Pitcher's job is to keep the other team from hitting! Hints, no hitting, no scoring. The rest of the teams job is to HIT and SCORE! Which we're not doing. 

 If you're at the game tomorrow... once again... cheer loudly... no wave and pray we still make it into the playoffs! 

 **For a team to make it to the World Series... you have the have the perfect storm of GREAT Pitching, Good Hitting and Good Defense in the Field. (the players in the field are Defense... just making sure you know that... so when they're hitting... it's Offense.)**

GO DALLAS COWBOYS!!! 

The Cowboys play the Kansas City Chiefs tomorrow at 12:00 PM!!! 

 Don't complain about stuff not getting done around the house or errands being run... sit down next to your family, friends or the throw pillow on your couch and enjoy the game!!! Life is so rushed... stop and relish in some pigskin every now and then! 

 **You can watch chick-flicks any other day, but Sundays! And maybe Monday Nights - and possibly Thursday nights - and Saturday's if you're into College Football - so basically watch those movies February - August :)**

 Random Info:
Remember... what other big game are you supposed to watch tomorrow?? Hint - it starts at 3:15PM CST (there are fewer games played at 3:15 - most are played at noon) - it comes on CBS... two brothers - who are both Quarterbacks - on opposing teams... ahhh yes - Denver Broncos vs New York Giants!! This is your opportunity to see greatness from Peyton Manning!!! 

 High-five someone today! It's Game Day!!! :)

Dirk Nowitzki ~ Dallas Cowboys Free Agency ~ Texas Rangers ~ Selection Sunday ~ Loveland, CO

GO MAVS!!! 27-36  (wins - losses) Dirk, Dirk, he's our man... if he can't do it... no one can!!!  Well, only 5 other guys can and have.  Dirk is now 6th on the all time list of NBA players to score 30,000 points . This is a crazy accomplishment. He's played over 1,300 games in his 19 year career with the Dallas Mavericks.  His commitment to this team and to our city has been life changing for many. He does a lot in our community through the Dirk's Heroes Foundation . Fundraising and giving grants to non-profits in our community and around the world that are making an impact in the lives of children and families in need.  Back in the day, the Mavs games were fun to watch with the " Three J's " - but we didn't win a lot, and we never thought we would make it to the playoffs consistently, much less to the NBA Finals. ( Three J's: Jimmy Jackson, Jamal Mashburn, Jason Kidd - here's a funn...

Dallas Mavs ~ Texas Rangers ~ Thoughts on the Super Bowl ~ Dallas is Freezing

Dallas  Mavericks 13-14 (wins-losses) I feel like we've been on a rollercoaster with the Mavs, but I like the direction we're going now. As for how NBA and NFL players feel about our cold weather... that's a funnier story. The Mavs longest stretch of losses was six games in mid-January. It was not fun and the team looked confused as to why they couldn't pull out a win.  A few guys have been out, off and on, due to illness or injury, but now they're all back and are rolling. Especially Kristaps Porzingis .  They keep joking that he's playing how he did back in September 2020 when they were in the NBA bubble, before his knee injury. Now that he has healed and is playing more minutes per game, he has been on fire! To see a 7'3" guy drain 3 pointers like he does is amazing. I mean, if he raises his arms, they're already above the rim, so he just has to put the right arc on it and swish. So cool!  His stats vs. the Pelicans in Friday night's victory:...

The Masters, in all its beauty ~ Texas Rangers ~ Dallas Mavs ~ Get Outside

The Masters The ultimate Bucket List item and one of the ones that exceeded my expectations. If you play golf, have a family member who makes you watch golf or take naps to golf, you understand that The Masters is the holy grail of golf tournaments. It is the only PGA tournament that is played in the same location every year, Augusta, Georgia.  Thanks to very dear friends of mine, I had the chance to walk through the azaleas, experience the serenity of Amen Corner and watch the players skip golf balls across the water at Hole 16. If they allowed people to sleep on the grass, I would have stayed forever.  We were there for two days of practice rounds, which is fun because the players are relaxed and cut up with one another. They cancelled the Par 3 Contest, which was sad, but just being there was the most wonderful feeling ever. You can't take phones in, so I even called my parents from the phones at Augusta, just to do so. We also didn't realize you could bring in a real camer...
