GO RANGERS!!!
PLAYOFFS!!
Rangers vs. Toronto Blue Jays
Series 2-0
Game 3. Sunday. 7:05 PM - in Arlington
HELLO WIN COLUMN!!! RANGERS LEAD THE ALDS SERIES 2-0 and play Game 3 at home Sunday night!
Y'all. Can I get an air high five?
I really hope you got to watch the game or at least listen to it on the radio. If you missed it or just got lost in the 14 innings... watch this recap. Or watch this video play-by-play of all of the great hits!
Roughned Odor deserves the biggest hug ever!! That dude was all over the place! He always is, but his sliding abilities are insane! I'm pretty sure he takes off his batting gloves and puts a sliding mit on his right hand. His two slides at Home Plate looked like a scene out of the Matrix! Gosh, you gotta love that kid!
And DeShields. Sheesh. He got up to 21mph running to first base in the 14th inning! What? Track star? I'm glad he chose baseball instead of the Olympics. And glad the Rangers chose him.
Josh Hamilton. Since Banister is such a stats guy, I wonder why he left Josh in during two day games, only to produce 1 hit in 10 at bats. I like Josh, and I think he will do great Sunday night! We needed him in left field. I get it.
Hanser Alberto. Adrian Beltre's replacement at 3B. Was 0-4 until the 14th inning... then crack... dude sends the go-ahead run to Home Plate. Game on y'all! Game on!
Beltre didn't play today, due to a strained back. But, he will hopefully rest up today and Saturday, then play on Sunday night in Arlington!
Hamels held it together! We only used 6 pitchers to the Toronto Blue Jays 8. Similar pitch count, Rangers 214, Blue Jays 207. But the Rangers had 15 Strikeouts and the Blue Jays only had 10.
There was almost a brawl between Kela (Rangers Pitcher) and Donaldson (Blue Jays 3B). But the teams diffused it and Donaldson took his faux hawk ponytail back to the dugout after he was thrown out at first.
*************
We didn't have sound on our TV's at work, but could watch it. Like mime baseball.
I basically sat in a conference room from 10AM-4:30PM. Yes, I had my laptop and was working. No, I was not as efficient as I should have been. Hopefully we're done with day games.
I'm thankful I have very gracious co-workers/friends who put up with me being a bit enthusiastic through all 14 innings.
I may or may not yell loudly.

Sunday, October 11th
New England Patriots vs. Dallas Cowboys (home team is second)
3:25 PM CST on CBS
Home, home on the range
Where the deer and the antelope play
Where seldom is heard
A discouraging word
And the sky is not cloudy all day
Normally, playing at home is a good thing. You have home field advantage. You have the home crowd. You have the star in the center of the field (forget about T.O. standing in the middle of it as an Eagle).
But, this week feels different.
We have Bill Belichick and Tom Brady, bringing their posse to town.
Brady was supposed to be suspended through game 4 from deflate-gate. Clearly, that was overturned and he's been on a "stick-it to the NFL" tour.
They don't have any major injuries. All of the Cowboys are injured.
They've averaged 39.7 points per game and only allowed opponents 23.3 ppg.
Rob Gronkowski is healthy, as is the entire line-up of WR's.
Brady has thrown for 370 passing yards and will be the toughest matchup for our Dallas Defense, maybe this entire season.
Greg Hardy and Rolando McClain are back in action this week! Our DE's, Safety's and Cornerbacks have to play lights out! It's their job to keep Brady OFF of the field. It's Weeden's job to keep the Cowboys ON the field.
Bottom Line... Witten is still playing! You'll see more McFadden this week with Dunbar out and Randal making bone-head plays. I think Weeden can hold his own! Matt Castle was listed as active this week, just in case Weeden gets hurt. For the first time in a long time, I predict we will lose. 38-21.
BTW... no one EVER wants to think their team will lose. Having hope for your team is the best part about being a fan!
Injuries... Romo. Dez. Lance Dunbar. Brice Butler. Randy Gregory.
Fantasy Football... With so many injuries across all NFL teams, it is hard to keep up! I'm shocked the my Houston defense has gotten me 5 points ALL SEASON!!! I dropped them for Green Bay's D. It was available and they'll at least get me positive points! (Buffalo's D is the best)!
