Weekend Preview

GO RANGERS!!!

Games against Oakland start tonight! It's a 3 game series (as most are in baseball). 

 ***WE NEED TO WIN THESE GAMES!!!!***

 We are now 3.5 games behind Oakland for the lead and a spot in the playoffs! We have to win to get even with them! 

 Derek Holland is "on the mound" tonight (he's the pitcher... get it... pitching mound... guy "on the mound" - pitcher...) For the full pitching line up - check out my last post...

 We are still missing a few of our "big bats" going into this series... but if Elvis Andrus and Ian Kinsler can get on base and Adrian Beltre can hit them home... we may survive! Come on Rangers! ("big bats" - guys that are clutch hitters in a pressure situation - hit home-runs - possibly a grand-slam, etc.)

 Oh and if you're going to the game... please review the "Random Info" section from my last post. This is critical information!! ("anti-wave" tips) - Ladies - if you're on a date - and the dude you're with stands up to do the wave... it may be a "deal-breaker" #justsayin

 GO DALLAS COWBOYS!!! 

Well - since Josh Hamilton dubbed us a "Football Town" and not a "Baseball Town"... I will oblige him and give you the Week 2 Preview for the Cowboys! (I actually still like Hamilton - just thought I'd throw in a bit of history)

 The Cowboys play the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday at 12:00 PM!!! The Game is in KC!!! If you go to the game... please wear blue and white... NO PINK! Only team colors. This is mandatory! We are not Jessica Simpson. (no offense) :)

 Also, since the KC Chiefs have a much better Defense than the New York Giants... the Cowboys Offense has to step it up a notch! KC is going to put a lot of pressure on our Offensive Line (the guys who block for Romo - our Quarterback). Smart play-calling is going to win this game!

 Key Players: 
~ Tony Romo (QB - #9) - He's our QB - he's always a key player! ha! 
~ Jason Witten (TE - #82) - stud - #2 receiver! (Dez Bryant is still #1 - hurt foot and all)
~ DeMarco Murray (RB (running back) - #29) - hopefully he can slide through KC's defensive line!!! 
~ All of our Defense!!! (Anthony Spencer - dude who plays on the opposite side of Demarcus Ware - he is recovering from a surgery during the off-season, but may show up for a few downs) ("downs"... I'll explain that later - if you say it - dudes will know what you mean) :) 

My pick... Cowboys win!!! :) 28 - 14 (score) 

 Random Info:
You MUST watch the Denver Broncos vs New York Giants game! 3:15 PM - it is on CBS!!! Peyton Manning vs Eli Manning... brother vs brother! This a great duel! You have to tune in for a bit! Peyton Manning is on a quest to win the Super Bowl this year... dude is aging and he is running out of time. (clearly - he's the older brother!) He used to play for the Indianapolis Colts! Good times!

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. ...

Over-reaction Monday Week 6

GO COWBOYS!!! The Cowboys are 3-3... ( Wins are always the first number - Losses are the 2nd number ) - we're batting .500 folks! We Beat the Redskins!!! 16-31 :)  This was a great game!!! The Cowboys fought hard, and Tony Romo (our QB) played with a similar intensity as he did last week. ( The competition wasn't nearly as pressing, but he still got the job done! ) Good job Romo! He was also able to hit all of his WR's again! If the Offensive Line continues to give Romo time ( Cowboys fans have been whining about this for years ) - he should be able to produce a few more W's! ( "W" - Win )  ~ Dwayne Harris (WR) - this guy is fast! That's all you need to know. He plays on our Special Teams roster, and returns punts. He is always fast and can juke the defensive players very well. Scored a TD ( touchdown ) in this game and came close to scoring a second one! Props to Harris! ( "Special Teams" - so, there is the Offense, Defense and then the S...

Week 12: Dallas Cowboys vs. New England Patriots ~ Dallas Mavs Luka ~ Thanksgiving and Black Friday Prep

GO COWBOYS!!! 6-4 (wins-losses) Dallas Cowboys vs. New England Patriots (away vs. home) Sunday, November 24th @ 3:25 PM CST This is the Super Bowl.  The team who has played in more Super Bowls than we'll ever see in a lifetime ( not really, but it feels like it ), is hosting the 6-4 Dallas Cowboys, in New England.  We'll take our small victory over another sub-par team last week vs. the Detroit Lions and their shockingly good back-up QB from the University of Florida, and raise you a legendary QB in Tom Brady.  Reality Check.  The moment I said, The Patriots, you thought... we're going to lose.  Yes. That is a highly probably scenario.  They have won six Super Bowl Championships, since 2001, and don't just talk about it every year like the Cowboys, they actually win it. Novel. Crazy. Something every team wishes they could do.  They win by beating you at your own game. The ultimate chess match. Good coaching, good QBing ( not ...
