Dallas Cowboys Week 2 ~ Cold Front in TX

GO COWBOYS!!!

WEEK 2 - Dallas Cowboys vs Tennessee Titans 
Game Time: Noon (CST)  
(remember, the second team is at HOME)

The game this Sunday... 

We heard a lot of talk from Romo (QB), Garrett (Head Coach), almost all of the offense, saying they need to play smarter, make better decisions and execute what they do in practice. 

We agree. 

As fans, we sit on the sidelines with no option of ever playing in this game we love so passionately. We don't have any real control over what happens or doesn't. We just yell at our TV's, our tablets and any device that streams the Watch ESPN app and expect it to change the outcome! (same as yelling at your golf ball when you tee off and it's going dog leg left, when it's really a dog leg right - it's only crazy if it doesn't work, right?

Week 1 is always a tough week. It's the first game where everyone gets acclimated and their body has to deal with the shock of what they've chosen to do for a living. So, we'll give you Week 1 Cowboys. 

Are y'all ready to fight? Is there toughness left? 

It's going to take Romo being 100% accurate and our receiving corps to run the correct routes! 

Jason Witten needs to be targeted more and Dez has to break out of triple coverage! 

Cole Beasley needs to have more than 42 yards receiving if he's going to be our WR3! 

Notice I haven't mentioned our Defense. Well, Jake Locker (Tennessee's QB), is doing pretty well this year. He threw for over 260 yards last week, had 2 TD's and NO interceptions! They did play Kansas City last week, who has one of the worst D's in the league, but that means he'll probably do the same against our Dallas D. 

Bottom Line: The only way we had a game in Week 1 was with DeMarco Murray running the ball and saving Romo from more interceptions (since he didn't have to throw). This week, it may be a little tougher. The Titans are ranked 6th against the run. So, here's to Dan Bailey kicking 50 yard field goals and helping us win this one!

GO RANGERS!!!

We are 54-91 (Wins - Losses)

This makes me so sad. It's like a flash back to the early 2000's and to years of my childhood. We always had great players to cheer for, so the love for baseball is always there. But, as everyone in the world knows... it's way more fun to win! And no one wants to win more than the players we have. 


Basically, it's time to start thinking about next year.

Enjoy your first three weeks of football... then we'll re-visit the Rangers dilemmas. 

Random Info:
Y'all... it's going to be a high of 76 tomorrow (Friday) and high of 75 Saturday

I'll be on a jet plane for NYC, and will enjoy this type of weather all week, but if you're in Dallas, you have got to get outside! 

Play golf, ride your bike, plant some new plants, throw the football in your front yard with your kids... whatever... just get out there!! 

Life is too short to spend it all attached to tech devices. Look up at the clouds every now and then! They're really pretty!

And, since Sunday will heat back up (but not for very long), this is the perfect weekend to switch out the clothes in your closet and start transitioning for Fall/Winter. 

Remember to DONATE your clothes! There are so many places in Dallas that help men and women who are in need. Please give your clothes away that are still in good condition! 

I've always loved the quote - "The things you take for granted, someone else is praying for." 

So don't discard that "ugly sweater" because someone else may think it's cute and it could help them stay warm!

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

Week 11: Baltimore Ravens vs. Dallas Cowboys ~ Mavs ~ Gift Guide for Black Friday

GO COWBOYS!!! 8-1 1st in the NFL (I've died and gone to Heaven) 1st in the NFC EAST Sunday, November 20th Baltimore Ravens vs. Dallas Cowboys  (home team is second) 12:00 PM CST on CBS First things first... the Cowboys are playing amazing football right now! Even sportscasters who don't like the Cowboys can't stop talking about them.  I mentioned last week that we are the most balanced team in the league. When your Offense and Defense share an even amount of time on the field, it is easier to stay fresh and productive. If you leave your D out there too long, they're bound to make mistakes. So even with our Offense being as productive as they are, they are still staying on the field long enough to keep it balanced.  The Cowboys have a total of 219 first downs this season and lead the league at Offensive time of possession, 33:39 minutes ( an NFL football game is made up of 4 quarters, 15 minutes each, a total of 60 minutes ).  Ton

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.   No,
