Week 16: Dallas Cowboys vs. Buffalo Bills ~ Dallas Mavericks ~ Happy New Year

GO COWBOYS!!! 4-10 (wins - losses)

Sunday, December 27th
Dallas Cowboys vs. Buffalo Bills (home team is second)
12:00 PM CST on FOX

Well... it's the off-season for the Cowboys now... unofficially, at 4-10. It's the off-season for the Bills too, at 6-8. 

 When you're 4-10, you start placing your starting players that are injured on the IR (Injured Reserve) and getting them healed up for next season. 

 Romo and Dez are officially on IR. Witten has chest soreness, Beasley has a knee issue and I wouldn't be surprised if a few Offensive Lineman were limited in the last two games as well. No need to get injured when you only have two games left in the season and no hope of the playoffs. 

 Buffalo Bills... 

 We used to play them a lot back in the 80's and 90's. That was back when Jim Kelly was the QB. 

 The Cowboys 1992 and 1993 Super Bowl titles were victories against the Buffalo Bills. Good times!! It's been far too long since we've had a team like that! In 1993, the Cowboys were the only team to win the Super Bowl after losing the first 2 games of the regular season. 

 Today's Bills... Tyrod Taylor is their QB. He had a decent season and ended it on a high note, buying his Offensive Lineman 65" TV's for Christmas. Their RB is injured... LeSean McCoy. And a few other players are banged up. Basically, it's going to be a pre-season game in Week 16. 

Bottom Line... Kellen Moore is the starting QB for the Dallas Cowboys. He's a left handed QB, first in Cowboys history to throw in a regular season game. He had a few great passes last week and a TD to Dez. The WR's said they have to make adjustments based on catching the ball from a lefty vs. a right handed QB. Good thing they'll have the off-season to perfect this! 

 Injuries... Romo, Dez, Claiborne, Beasley, on and on and on.

GO MAVS!!! 16-13

Still sitting at 5th in the West and 2nd in the Southwest Division. 

Dirk Nowitzki is unbelievable. Now the 6th all time NBA scoring leader! He passed Shaq and many others!! Here is his tweet after... 

 As for the rest of our team... we need to get healthy (Williams and Harris, hamstrings), and not give up so many points in the first half! 

 J.J. Barea is tearing it up tonight vs. Chicago!!

**The game time was pushed back an hour due to tornados in the area. Rowlett & Garland were hit very hard. Prayers for everyone in that area!!! And surrounding areas!***

Check out the full schedule.

Random Info:
This Thursday is New Years Eve. Technically, it is just another day. 2016 is coming, and it is up to you each and every day on how you will live and love others! 

 Make a list if you're a list person, or just start waking up every day and spending 5 minutes talking to God. That is a great way to start the new year and make sure you're focused on what really matters in life! :) 

 Oh and it's a great day for COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!! 

 New Years Eve has the two playoff games to see who will play in the College Football Championship Game on Monday, January 11th in Arizona. 

Happy Football Watching & New Years Celebrating!!!

If I had to make one "resolution" - it would be to shop less. I enjoy shopping, but don't need another piece of clothing to save my life. #challengeyourself

 Hug someone!

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...

Dallas Mavs ~ Texas Rangers ~ Thoughts on the Super Bowl ~ Dallas is Freezing

Dallas  Mavericks 13-14 (wins-losses) I feel like we've been on a rollercoaster with the Mavs, but I like the direction we're going now. As for how NBA and NFL players feel about our cold weather... that's a funnier story. The Mavs longest stretch of losses was six games in mid-January. It was not fun and the team looked confused as to why they couldn't pull out a win.  A few guys have been out, off and on, due to illness or injury, but now they're all back and are rolling. Especially Kristaps Porzingis .  They keep joking that he's playing how he did back in September 2020 when they were in the NBA bubble, before his knee injury. Now that he has healed and is playing more minutes per game, he has been on fire! To see a 7'3" guy drain 3 pointers like he does is amazing. I mean, if he raises his arms, they're already above the rim, so he just has to put the right arc on it and swish. So cool!  His stats vs. the Pelicans in Friday night's victory:...

The Masters, in all its beauty ~ Texas Rangers ~ Dallas Mavs ~ Get Outside

The Masters The ultimate Bucket List item and one of the ones that exceeded my expectations. If you play golf, have a family member who makes you watch golf or take naps to golf, you understand that The Masters is the holy grail of golf tournaments. It is the only PGA tournament that is played in the same location every year, Augusta, Georgia.  Thanks to very dear friends of mine, I had the chance to walk through the azaleas, experience the serenity of Amen Corner and watch the players skip golf balls across the water at Hole 16. If they allowed people to sleep on the grass, I would have stayed forever.  We were there for two days of practice rounds, which is fun because the players are relaxed and cut up with one another. They cancelled the Par 3 Contest, which was sad, but just being there was the most wonderful feeling ever. You can't take phones in, so I even called my parents from the phones at Augusta, just to do so. We also didn't realize you could bring in a real camer...
