Sunday Game Day

GO RANGERS!!!

It is currently Saturday night and we are losing to the Los Angeles Angels. 

We are 1 game behind the Oakland Athletics for the lead in the American League (AL) West. 
To get you caught up - there is one month left until the end of the season. Then Playoffs. Then World-Series. 
If you are watching the game tomorrow (2:35 PM CST)... cheer loudly! We need to secure a Playoff spot! 
~ Nick Tepesch is pitching - this is not good news. His ERA is 4.67. (Earned Runs given up to the other team)... Yu Darvish (a great pitcher for the Rangers) has an ERA of 2.91. #perspective

GO DALLAS COWBOYS!!! 


Are you ready for some football??? Man... it is good to have pigskin back in the line-up! (pigskin is another term for a football) So... to start off the season right I'll give you a little pre-season info. Do not feel overwhelmed - it will not be this lengthy every week! (I think?!?)

We have not been to the Playoffs since 2009. Depressing. We have not won a Super Bowl since 1995. Depressing. But... we press on. 

~ Tony Romo is our Quarterback (QB). He seems like a nice guy and is a talented athlete! I hope this season, he plays like he cares more about the game than I do! We signed him to a 6 year deal - highest in Cowboys Franchise history. So embrace him because he's around for a while! 
~ Jason Witten: Tight End (TE) - one of the best in the NFL, and a classy fella! 
~ Dez Bryant: Wide Receiver (WR) - played at Oklahoma State, has had a few "off-the-field issues", but he has great hands and that is important for a WR.
~ Miles Austin: Wide Receiver (WR) - one of the many athletes who dated Kim Kardashian... but we try to forget that and focus on his WR skills! He usually gets injured a lot, but if he can stay healthy - game on! 

Sunday's Game... vs NEW YORK GIANTS!!! (7:30 PM CST) There are 4 teams in our Division. this may be way too much information, but just so you know why we play them a lot... here are the teams:

~ Dallas Cowboys
~ New York Giants
~ Philadelphia Eagles (boooo)
~ Washington Redskins

I'll explain the "boooo" later when we play the Eagles. But as for the Giants, it is a big rivalry. We played them last year, season opener, and we won!!! It felt great, but didn't play out for our season as a whole - we finished 8-8 (8 wins, 8 losses). So clearly - we want to win... beat Eli Manning (the QB for the Giants - Peyton Manning's brother)... and have more reasons to trash talk Giant's fans!!! It's all in good fun! I lived in NYC and trust me... they can take it! I survived a game in the Meadowlands! :)

Random Info Section:
~ MLB plays 162 regular season games

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 ...
