Rangers Win - Cowboys Lose


GO RANGERS!!!

HELLO WIN COLUMN!!!! Rangers sweep the Angels in Game 4, 6-2!

Wow!!! What a game! What a series! What a whirlwind!!! 

 ~ Yu Darvish (starting pitcher) - he did well through the 5th inning... he gave up one home run to the prodigy child, Mike Trout on the Angels. In the 6th inning... Darvish started getting shaky and Ron Washington (Rangers Manager) pulled him from the game! 

 ~ Craig Gentry (Left Fielder)... Wow... that kid is doing a great job!!! Defensively and Offensively he is on fire right now! You could walk up to anyone tomorrow and say his name and you should just high five on another!

 ~ Geovany Soto (catcher) - He caught Yu Darvish today and hit a double that scored a run for the Rangers. He also hit a solo home run in the 8th inning! (Beltre also hit a solo home run)

 PLAYOFFS
So - here's what went down... the Cleveland Indians won and secured the first Wild-card spot. The Tampa Bay Rays also won and now have to play us tomorrow night in Arlington for a tie-breaker to get the other wild-card spot!!! 

 **BONUS INFO** Nelson Cruz (outfielder) - has been on suspension for the past 50 games... he re-joins the team tomorrow night for the tie-breaker game! Let's hope Nelly helps the Rangers to a Victory!! 

 Tomorrow night's game...

SEPTEMBER 30, 7:07 PM CT
martin perez - era 3.55
vs david price - era 3.39
We have historically done well against David Price when we play Tampa Bay - we better pray this is the case tomorrow night! 

 **Do whatever you need to do to cheer on the Rangers! We got this! :) 

GO COWBOYS!!!

The Cowboys are 2-2... they lost in the efforts today against the San Diego Chargers. 

 This was just a messy game! The San Diego Defense was able to dominate against our run game! They also kept Tony Romo and our Offense off balance. All while Phillip Rivers (their QB) was perfectly in sync with his team! 

 ~ Tony Romo (QB) - he only threw for 244 yards... he had two great passes to Dez Bryant (WR) for two TD's (touchdowns) but beyond that, there wasn't much to see! 

 ~ Dallas Defense - Sean Lee (linebacker) was able to "intercept" a pass from Rivers and score a TD for Dallas! This was still not enough to help us win, but it is still a positive for the future of our D! ("intercept" - when a defensive player catches the ball thrown by the other team and the team the Defense is on gets the ball) With Anthony Spencer being out for the season and DeMarcus Ware being in an out of the game today... it just wasn't our day today! 

They just looked tired, sloppy and not like the Dallas team we've seen in Weeks 1 and 3. We do have a few Offensive and Defensive players injured, but they should still be able to perform up to par! 

 Next Weeks game... 

 Denver Broncos vs Dallas Cowboys - 3:15 PM Sunday! This will be an Epic game! Peyton Manning comes to town!! Preview to come mid-week! For anyone who will be at the game... I'll be a bit jealous!

Random Info:
~ The weather is turning colder here in TX! This is great news! Buy some Fall candles, get the firewood lined up and start making chili!!! :)

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:...

Rangers lose Game 1

GO RANGERS!!! Rangers lose to the Kansas City Royals, 2-1. Their pitching was spectacular. Our pitching wasn't too bad, but yet again, we couldn't hit against Santana! (that was KC's pitcher) The Rangers are 7 games behind Oakland to win the Division. Clearly we probably won't catch up to them, but we can still get a Wild Card spot if they ever start winning consistently!  Game 2 in KC is tomorrow night - Matt Garza is pitching for the Rangers!  Cheer Loudly!  GO COWBOYS!!! 12:00 PM - this Sunday - St. Louis Rams vs Dallas Cowboys.  Enjoy your family, friends and some football!!! :) "Day of Rest" Random Info: The two teams who have already secured a spot in the Playoffs are:  ~ Boston Red Sox (we used to have Mike Napoli  - he is a great Home Run hitter and now plays for Boston... his beard fits in perfectly there)  ~ LA Dodgers (We like their Manager - Don Mattingly  - he used to play for the NY Yankees back in the day!)  ...
