Week 10: Minnesota Vikings vs. Dallas Cowboys ~ Dallas Mavs ~ LSU beat Bama

GO COWBOYS!!! 5-3 (wins-losses)
Minnesota Vikings vs. Dallas Cowboys (away vs. home)
Sunday, November 10th @ 7:20 PM CST

We won last week vs. the Giants. It wasn't pretty, but we'll take it. 

 The main thing people were super excited about was Sean Lee playing for Vander Esch and having a great game! (and injury free)

 Who is Sean Lee? Our veteran Linebacker, #50, who has suffered from multiple injuries over the years and is now a mentor/back-up to the young Vander Esch, Smith, Awuzie and the entire LB (Linebacker) corp. And when his time came to play, he did! Last week he had 12 total tackles, 9 solo and 3 assisted. Think of him as the defensive version of Jason Witten. 

What to expect this week vs. the Vikings... 

 Our Defense will represent, and Sean Lee will be at the helm.

 The Vikings QB is Kirk Cousins. He seems like a really nice guy and came under fire after the Vikings lost in Week 2 vs. the Packers and Week 4 vs. the Bears. So, he decided to help is team defeat the Giants, Eagles, Lions and Redskins. Their win streak ended last week in a 26-23 loss to the Chiefs. Cousins still played well, but the Chiefs Tyreek Hill had 140 yards and 1 TD. They couldn't stop the run game. 

 Running... 

 I think we know a guy on the Cowboy who can do that. Zeke. I say he rushes for over 100 yards. And that's exactly what the Vikings will try to do to us too. Dalvin Cook is their start RB. Zeke may be the highest paid RB in the league, but Cook his ranked first in rushing yards and second in rushing TD's in the NFL. 

 What shall we hope for then, that our Defense does this thing called a pass rush... gets pressure on Cousins, forces maybe his second interception since their win streak began, and we get the W. Oh and while pressuring Cousins, we can't let Cook run all over us. 

 Dak, our QB, will throw two TD's and one will go to Cobb. Cobb has been pretty irrelevant the past few weeks. It's time he does something big! Cooper and Gallup have battled knee injuries, but should play Sunday.

 Final question: Zeke trails Cook by 153 yards and 4 TD's on the season. How many yards and TD's will Zeke get Sunday night? How many will Cook get? 

 I don't really care as long as we get the Win! 

GO COWBOYS!
Vikings 21 ~ Cowboys 31

GO MAVS!!! 6-3 (wins ~ losses)
We're only 9 games into the season and Luka ranks sixth in the NBA in average points per game, 28.1, and second in assists, 9.3. 

 Porzingis has stepped it up, averaging 20.1 points per game and 8.3 rebounds per game. We need more of this. 

 All in all, Doncic makes all of these guys look good, especially Powell! #alleyoop

Random Info...
All I have to say is LSU beat Bama.

Read it and weep with joy.

And does anybody else hear, Joe Burrow, and think of the QB in the movie Draft Day? Bo Callahan? I have no clue why, but every time I hear Joe Burrow - I flash to the, not so great QB (opposite of Joe), in the Draft Day movie, and have to remind myself that Joe doesn't equal Bo and Burrow after Joe doesn't equal Bo. So where does this association in my brain come from? No clue. You're welcome. You will never get that moment of time back.

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...
