PLAYOFFS

We are up 2-0 vs. the Minnesota Wild

With the way the Stars are playing... we should win in 4 and have a few days rest before Round 2 of the Playoffs!

GO RANGERS!!! 7-6
1st in AL (American League) West

The deal is DONE! We have Adrian Beltre for 2 more years at $36M... he is our third baseman and one of the most influential veterans on our team. Here are 10 interesting facts about Adrian Beltre

This past series vs. the Baltimore Orioles was spectacular!! 

I was fortunate enough to go Thursday night, when we won 6-3. Then we lost big time on Friday, 11-5 and got back on track yesterday, winning 8-4. 



The winning pitchers were Cole Hamels on Thursday and Keone Kela on Saturday. Derek Holland was supposed to pitch Sunday, but the game was rained out. First rainout for the Rangers in 448 consecutive regular season games... longest in MLB history. 

***April 17th's game was rescheduled for Monday, June 20th. You can go to that game or exchange you tickets for any regular season game, Sun-Thurs.***

Here is the upcoming schedule... I suggest you all go see Nomar Mazara play... dude is 6' 4" and looks like a tight end. He not only challenges the strike zone but is a threat in right field too. I know we get excited about every new prospect from the minors... but this dude may be the real deal?!?!

GO MAVS!!! 1-0
PLAYOFFS vs. Oklahoma City Thunder 

We were hurt going into the playoffs and continue to be hurt... We lost 106-70 in Game 1 in OKC. JJ Barea is out again with a strained groin, not fun, and we're playing with the rest of our team at about 80%. It's not looking good for us... but Dirk, being the leader that he is, went on Mike and Mike this week to try to re-create the magic that happened in 2011... the last time he was on Mike and Mike and we hit lightening in a bottle with a Championship that year!! 

Listen in... Mike and Mike with Dirk Nowitzki

GO COWBOYS!!!
OFF-SEASON

The NFL Draft is quickly approaching... April 28th, 6 PM, in Chicago, IL. (If it ever goes back to NYC, I'll go again). 

I've said for the past two years that I think we should take Ezekiel Elliott in the Draft... he will most likely be available as the 4th pick, which we have because of our stellar recored last year. However, most experts do not see the Cowboys, aka Stephen Jones, taking a Running Back that high in the draft. We wouldn't even pay DeMarco Murray after his record breaking year in 2014... sooooo what now? 

Are we taking a back-up QB for Romo? Nope, Jerry thinks Romo has 3 more solid years left. (Remember, Aaron Rodgers sat behind Brett Favre for 3 years - worked out pretty well for the guy - he was drafted 24th in the 1st round of the 2005 draft). I still think we should get a QB... even if it's a 6th rounder like Tom Brady was in 2000.

Here are what the professionals are saying... read on...

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,
