Rangers Win Game 2 - Holland Today

GO RANGERS!!!

HELLO WIN COLUMN!!!! Rangers beat the Angles in Game 2, 5-3! 

There were a lot of base hits! A lot of runs scored with us holding our breath! And an awesome ending!! 

 ~ Ian Kinsler (2nd Baseman) did a great job all night! He kept us in the game on the field and at bat! 

 ~ Alex Rios (Right Fielder) not only did he have a few great catches, but he also stole a base and had a go-ahead hit in the 7th, scoring an RBI! (we wen't over RBI's, but a "go-ahead hit" means - the guy hit the ball and caused a run to score that put their team ahead of the other team.)

 ~ Alexi Ogando (starting pitcher) did a decent job. He gave up a few hits that allowed the Angels to score 3 runs, but the Rangers were able to keep up and give Joe Nathan (closing pitcher) the lead in the 9th inning!! 

 ~ In Other News... Josh Hamilton hit his 1,000 career hit last night. Say what you want, but as an actual baseball player... that's a cool accomplishment! 

PLAYOFF RACE..
The Rangers have to win today and tomorrow! 
Even then, we still need Cleveland and Tampa Bay to lose!! We are 1 game behind them... even if they lose - there is a possibility of a 3-way tie! Needless to say, this is NOT how we like getting into the playoffs two years in a row, but we'll take it!

GO RANGERS !!! ALDS PLAYOFFS - THIS THURSDAY It's official... we are playing the Toronto Blue Jays in the ALDS.  Dang it.  I can't stand the Blue Jays. They have trashy fans.

All the sports people are going to have a field day over this. I bet they wish they had given us the evening time slots now!

Over-reaction Monday Week 8

GO COWBOYS!!! Cowboys lose to the Detroit Lions... 30-31 This game was a bit crazy. If you ever wanted to know about football, all it entails and how crazy people are for watching it and loving it... this a great game to watch!  Bottom line...  ~ Detroit Defense - they did a great job stopping our offense. Passing and running. They held Tony Romo (our QB) to 206 yards, which 110 of those were on 2 TD passes. And they held Joseph Randal (our RB) to 14 carries for 26 yards. ( aka... not good ) Ndamukong Suh - Defensive Tackle for the Lions, is a crazy man. Literally. He had his D ready today.  ~ Matthew Stafford - Detroit's QB that is from Highland Park, played for UGA. He played well... The kid threw for 488 yards and had a very sneaky TD at the end of the game to win it for the Lions. Detroit's Offense completed 29 1st downs vs. Dallas' 13 1st downs. ( there are 4 downs in football... which means you have 4 chances to get the ball 10 yards, running or ...

Week 2: New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys ~ UNT beat Arkansas ~ Scooter Magruder

GO Cowboys!!! 0-1 (wins ~ losses) New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys ( away team ~ home team ) Sunday, September 16 @ 7:20 PM CST on NBC If you watched the game last week, where we lost to the Carolina Panthers, you have most likely decided to stop watching the rest of the season. It was a rough game. And it makes a lot of people think that first string players should get more reps during pre-season games so your Week 1 game isn't a scrimmage. So, during the " scrimmage ," that was a regular season game, Dak matched Cam Newton ( Carolina's QB ) in passing yards and was pretty close in accuracy. So where did Carolina win? Aside from wearing out our Defense... Newton had 13 carries for 58 rushing yards, allowing him to score one of their two TD's ( touchdowns ). Zeke ( our RB, running back ) had 15 carries for 69 rushing yards and one TD. Carolina out played us in the run game because they're not afraid to allow their QB to run. They converted more 1st ...
