The 2018 NFL Draft in North Texas is history. Having it in Jerry Jones’ backyard..

because of legal troubles. But they’ll pay him like the potent pass rusher he is..

March is here….though the weather does not look like spring recently. But the basketball focus has intesefied. The Dallas Mavericks are in a Western Conference battle and they need to keep winning to get a decent seed. And they picked up another player from the NY Knicks. Amare Stodermire is gonna help out the Mavs with his offense, and the defensive bite that coach Rick Carsile needs in the push for the playoffs. Now one player that is still feeling his way, and making things unseasy in the Mavs camp is Rajon Rondo. The aquirre from Boston has not found his role oon the…

Wow, the NFL keeps finding ways to shoot itself in the foot. First it was Ray Rice, Adrian Peterson, then the playoffs that had plays that kept the Dallas Cowboys out of the championship round of the playoffs. With the big Super Bowl finalle coming up, and all eyes should be on the big game, another controversey has popped up. And it involves a team that has got in trouble before. And they are playing in the big game. The New England Patriots are
involved with deflate gate. Were the balls used in the game with the Indianapolis Colts properly inflated??? Pats QB Tom Brady…

There are ways to win these games. The Dallas Cowboys are showing the mark of finding ways to win, rallying from behind to win. But this wild card playoff game with the Detroit Lions was battle
that the in my gut feeling that today was not the day for the Pokes. Nudomikin Suh reinstatement back in the game after winning his appeal a few days ago was the spark in the Lions defense that they needed. Cowboys
offensive line let the lions loose and got to quarterback Tony Romo. Every time you look up Tony was laid out. Lions QB Matthew Stafford was flinging the ball down field, and…

When the Houston Astros got put into the American League West, the MLB bosses were hoping to make a interstate rivary with the Texas Rangers. The Rangers for the past few years has had the Astros number. That might change a bit, and there is one person who has a history with both teams. Nolan Ryan. The former Astros pitcher, who played for Houston for 5 years, is now in the Astros front office. Not that long ago, Ryan was the lead man in the Rangers front office, and had a major role in the Rangers getting to the World Series twice in a row. But his role with the Rangers dwendlled while the…

The lanscape of college football in Texas changed in a span of a week recently. And it involved two cornerstone schools with Texas and Texas A & M. First, the long awaited annoucement on who will be the new coach at Texas. And once he was announced, the new hashtag term #texasstrong went to work as Charlie Strong is now the Longhorns coach. Coach Strong recently was the Head Coach at Louisville, where he brought that football program and put it on a national pedistal. Winning record with a reputation for defense, which the Horns were lacking the last three seasons. Most of the Texas faithful,…

Well this came out of the blue. We were not thinking about this one. But it happened. Texas Rangers made a signifigant player move. Ian Kinsler is gone to Detroit for Prince Fielder. I don’t know why Prince is coming to Texas, or any news from Detroit that he was trade bait. But Fielder for Kinsler makes sense. Rangers need power to replace Nelson Cruz, and Prince will provide that. And he is an imposing figure at the plate, pitchers have been known to tremble when he is up there. Kinsler might have lost a step as the Rangers lead off man, which is a reason that Juriskon Profar is going to…

In one weekend of hoops, we saw one player putting on a shooting clinic that propelled his team to the final four. One player getting triple teamed in a huge upset. And we saw one player getting his game back in his team’s run to the playoffs
First , the Final Four in Atlanta is set. Michigan is showing it’s swagger like they did in the 90’s. One player has mega swag and his name is Nik Stauskas. He scored 22 points, most of them were threes in the 79-59 beating of Florida. He found on spot on the court, the corner baseline. And shot lights out as he put his Wolverines in the Final Four….

68 teams were pick to play in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. You have your returning fave like North Carolina, Duke, Ohio State, Kansas, Louisville, to name a few of the recognized schools. And then you have Florida Gulf Coast. A school that is barley new in its 16 years of existance in the town of Ft. Myers, Florida. When they started , the classrooms were in portable trailers and had some sports programs. But as time went along, the campus grew with sports programs as the basketball program was leading the way. They built a basetball arean on campus with the intent of going to…
