March Madness ~ Mean to Me

March Madness!!!

You officially have one more day to fill out your bracket before the games begin!! 


What is March Madness??


It's college basketball. It's 64 teams. It's the Sweet Sixteen. It's the Elite Eight. It's the Final Four. It's the National Championship. It's cutting down the net!!


Uconn won last year... watch this highlight reel.

You may have an office pool going on, with everyone filling out brackets... here are a few things to note... 

1. The person who normally wins is the person who knows the least about basketball and typically picks based on team colors. Betting more than $5 is unwise, unless you're the person mentioned above. 
2. SMU hasn't been in the tournament in 22 years. So, if you're from TX and want to represent - you should pick them to beat UCLA. 
3. Texas, as in UT, is in the big dance again. I'm not a huge UT fan and am not sure they will beat Butler. But, if you're an alumni of UT, pick them. Ha! (you would anyway)
4. Texas Southern also made the big dance. They're up against Arizona! I picked Arizona.
5. If you're going to pick an "upset" or "Cinderella school" - don't keep them going much past the Sweet Sixteen. This year is supposed to be pretty clean with schools ranked in the top 4 making it to the finals. Just what "they" are saying! Do as you will! 

**I missed SFA. They were in the tournament last year and are playing Utah this year. They are a decent pick for an upset, but I picked Utah.**

Random Info:
So, I love Country Music. Yes, I said it, and I'm not ashamed. 

Randomly, had CMT on the other day, and this song came on, that I love!! 



I caught myself watching this video wondering... why is the whole thing like a Calvin Klein model shoot of Bret Eldredge?? The song is about a woman, in a crowded room, that he's watching and admiring. 

I started laughing because there isn't a female in this video until the last 20 seconds, in which she acts shocked to see him in an EMPTY room! Ha! Not that I'm a video producer, but just figure if you sing a song about a chick, there should be one with you in your music video. 

Props that it was shot in NYC. 

End of story.

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. ...

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 ...

Over-reaction Monday Week 2 ~ Texas Rangers ~ Subway Series, Matt Harvey

GO COWBOYS!!! 2-0  (wins - losses) Dallas Cowboys vs. Philadelphia Eagles  - We won!!! Y'all. Everyone is injured. Yes, we won, but it was still as chaotic as it was against the Giants in Week 1.  Injuries... to our Starters...  Quarterback - Tony Romo is out with a collarbone fracture. For probably 8 weeks. He doesn't need surgery, which is a good thing!! He had this same injury in 2010, caused by the Giants. So, he needs to be a little more careful vs. the Eagles and Giants.  Tight End - Jason Witten is probable for this week with two ankle sprains and a sprained knee. He has proven he is one of the toughest guys ... EVER. He will most likely play through the pain, but if he wants to take a rest vs. the Atlanta Falcons this week, I'm okay with that.  Wide Receiver  -  Dez Bryant has a broken bone in his foot . He had surgery and will be out 4-6 weeks. If we go 6 weeks, the Cowboys have a BYE Week in Week 6, so technica...
