Week 7: Cowboys vs. New York Giants ~ Dierks Bentley Riser

GO COWBOYS!!! 2-3 (wins - losses)

Sunday, October 25th
Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants (home team is second)
3:25 PM CST on FOX

On the road again... 
I just can't wait to get on the road again... 

 Why have I started the past few Cowboys posts with old Western songs... Maybe my Grandpa's influence or my Dad's... gotta love them! 

 I mentioned last week, during our BYE week (aka, mini vacation from playing), that we were making some changes on Offense... and Defense, but mainly Offense. 

 We will stroll into the Meadowlands, in NYC, actually New Jersey, where the New York Giants (and New York Jets) play. 

 Their home turf is past the seven levels of the Candy Cane forest, through the sea of twirly, swirly gumdrops, and then you go through the Lincoln Tunnel (literally). ~ Elf (please tell me you've watched this once already this Fall)

 The Giants are fairly healthy, with Eli Manning at QB and Rashad Jennings at RB and Odell Beckham, Jr. at WR. He's not 100% and the Eagles shut him down with the double-team in the second half of the game Monday night, but he's still OBJ! 

 Now, the Giants are coming off of a short week. They played the Philadelphia Eagles Monday night, then turn around and play Sunday. We play them twice a year, so it's not that hard for them to figure us out. 

 The Cowboys played them in Week 1 and won 27-26. That was WITH Tony Romo, Dez Bryant and a healthy Jason Witten, in Dallas!

 This week.. we're playing them WITH Matt Castle at QB, Terrance Williams and Cole Beasley at WR, Jason Witten and his grit at TE, and Joseph Randle and Christine Michael at RB. Quite a different bunch, BUT, it's the Cowboys vs. Giants! You never know! 

 Bottom Line... With how the Philadelphia Eagles tore apart the Giants on Monday night, I figure we can throw in some plays that they haven't seen before with our new Offensive Regime and beat them! They're not used to Castle at QB, or our new RB we acquired from the Seattle Seahawks. 

Injuries... Romo. Dez. Lance Dunbar. Brice Butler. Randy Gregory.

 Nike made special shoes for Dez and he's been practicing... but I hope he holds out one more week!! Just my thoughts! He did buy a monkey as a pet. ha! 

Fantasy Football... If Christine Michael, James Stark or Stefon Diggs are available in your leagues... pick them up! Game on!!

If you've missed the Deep Blue Documentaries on The Dallas Cowboys... you should watch them... here.

They are all really good! Especially the one on Jason Witten and Jim Garrett. 

Enjoy!

Random Info:
Nothing crazy this week. 

 Just that I like Dierks Bentley's new song Riser. 

 A lot. 

But, I like Country music. 

 Sometimes, it's super cheesy. 

 And sometimes, it's goes right to the soul.

 This song has good words.

 And a great story.   

 Hug someone!

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 ...
