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
~ NFL plays 16 regular season games

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...

Week 11: Baltimore Ravens vs. Dallas Cowboys ~ Mavs ~ Gift Guide for Black Friday

GO COWBOYS!!! 8-1 1st in the NFL (I've died and gone to Heaven) 1st in the NFC EAST Sunday, November 20th Baltimore Ravens vs. Dallas Cowboys  (home team is second) 12:00 PM CST on CBS First things first... the Cowboys are playing amazing football right now! Even sportscasters who don't like the Cowboys can't stop talking about them.  I mentioned last week that we are the most balanced team in the league. When your Offense and Defense share an even amount of time on the field, it is easier to stay fresh and productive. If you leave your D out there too long, they're bound to make mistakes. So even with our Offense being as productive as they are, they are still staying on the field long enough to keep it balanced.  The Cowboys have a total of 219 first downs this season and lead the league at Offensive time of possession, 33:39 minutes ( an NFL football game is made up of 4 quarters, 15 minutes each, a total of 60 minutes ).  ...

POSTSEASON BASEBALL: Toronto Blue Jays vs. Texas Rangers ~ Baseball Etiquette ~ Dallas Cowboys Over-reaction Tuesday

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. No, literally, they throw trash on the field .  And Jose Bautista is a punk. No one needs your bat flippin' drama!  And we all remember this... Odor punching Bautista earlier this year. Watch . 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! Except that Toronto's TV ratings don't count, eh?  How we win... stay focused. Eliminate the drama. We beat them during the regular season. We can do it again. No hitting batters, no one getting ejected. We need our entire roster in the ALCS. We need to play Texas Ranger baseball. Period. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Games 1 and 2 are this Thursday at 3:30 PM and Friday at Noon in Arlington, TX. Games 3 and 4 are Sunday and Monday in Toronto. ...
