Week 9: Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants ~ Dallas Mavs and Luka ~ Daylight Savings Time

GO COWBOYS!!! 4-3 (wins-losses)
Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants (away vs. home)
Monday, November 4th @ 7:15 PM CST

Bye, bye, bye. 

The Bye week is over. And we wake-up to Week 9 in the NFL.

What happened since we last played a game? 

~ Baker Mayfield is still yapping his mouth and acting foolish. 
~ We missed getting Adams from the Jets, but we did pick up Bennett from the Patriots. Not the Tight End, but the brother, who is a Defensive Tackle.
~ Vander Esch is still injured and is day-by-day.
~ The 49ers are still undefeated, with the Patriots old back-up QB as their starting QB. Annoying. 
~ The Patriots Defense has gotten me 185 points in Fantasy Football, I'll take it.
~ The Washington Nationals won the World Series!!! They started their season 19-31 (wins-losses) and made it all the way. The only team in any professional sport to win all 4 games on the road. Life Lesson: don't give up! Contracts to them!!

Do you know who is still on the list of teams who do not have a title? (tear
The Rangers. 

The New York Giants, round 2. 

We destroyed the Giants in Week 1, 17-35. So, what will be different in Week 9 vs. Week 1? 

1. We played Eli Manning in Week 1. The Giants now have their rookie, Daniel Jones, at QB. He's not afraid to go after the Defense and there isn't a lot of tape on him this year. He can throw and run, but having Michael Bennett will be helpful! Our Defense will need to stay one step ahead. 

2. We're playing in NYC as opposed to Dallas. 

3. We're playing on MNF (Monday Night Football), which is a big deal and these NFL players don't like to lose in front of that large of an audience.

4.  Zeke has gotten Cabo out of his system and looks like he's ready to have a 100+ yard game. 

5. Everyone on the Cowboys team should be rested after their week off. 

Now, my Dad and I went to an event, during the BYE week, for Arms of Hope. It's a wonderful organization that helps single moms and families have a home to live in, food, place to get work and get back on their feet. Tears hearing the stories of the difficulty some of these women and children have gone through in their lives. But who was there to cheer them up? Jaylon Smith and Darren Woodson. It was supposed to be Vander Esch, but with his neck injury, it provided the opportunity for Woodson to be there, which was awesome. He gave Smith a hard time about how different the game was in the 90's and how important it is to stay focused on life after the game too. Here are a few photos. I highly encourage you to checkout Arms of Hope. Maybe it could be helpful for you or a friend of yours? Or would be a great place to donate to or volunteer at. We're all in this life together. None should ever be alone!! 




Should we win this week? Of course. Will we? Yes, but not by much.

GO COWBOYS!
Cowboys 28 ~ Giants 21


Checkout the Cowboys full schedule.

GO MAVS!!! 3-2 (wins ~ losses)
Luka!!!!!!

That's all. All season long, you're going to hear that name. 

The season started a couple of weeks ago and we're already in Luka highlight mode. 

Here are a few clips from his game vs. the Lakers, aka, LeBron James. 

We ALMOST won in OT (overtime). We'll get them next time. 

He did have to have stitches in his head, but he will be fine. They had Saturday off, so hopefully that helped? 

Also, if you missed it, Dirk had a street named after him. This guy doesn't ever need to leave Dallas. We love him here and will always be thankful to him for helping bring a Championship here. (Yo, Rangers, any day now... I hear Gerrit Cole is a free agent).

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 ...

GO COWBOYS!!! 9-1 1st in the NFL  (I've died and gone to Heaven) 1st in the NFC EAST Thursday, November 24th Washington Redskins vs. Dallas Cowboys  (home team is second) 3:30 PM CST on FOX Full of hope, I predicted last week that the Cowboys would beat the Ravens by 11 points.

We went up against the #1 Defense in the league, threw up 97 rushing yards from Zeke and 301 passing yards by Dak. What? Who are we? So much fun!  THANKSGIVING DAY RIVALRY...  Before you get all tired off Tryptophan ... make sure to  check out this link and read about the NFL history on Thanksgiving Day . The two most consistent teams to play are the Dallas Cowboys and the Detroit Lions.  The Washington Redskins... our NFC East Division Rival.
