My computer is meeting its maker!

My computer is in route back to its maker! My cd/dvd rewriter went out.. it seems that no one in the city of Dallas works on Gateways anymore.. oh well.. good thing it was still under warranty.. lol. So I bought my laptop last January.. Went to a local BestBuy.. decided on the computer.. it was taken up front and was paid for.. About a year later.. the drive starts to have problems.. I took it back to another local BestBuy.. Only to find out that the moron that sold it to me didnt put me in the system.. so there is no record of me buying it.. and of course I can not find the reciept.. So I call the number given to me by one of the BestBuy staff.. only to be told.. Im sorry.. without the reciept number I can find your warranty info.. *sigh*.. Feeling like I am going around in circles.. I go back to the local BestBuy and start the process all over.. I spoke to the "Customer Satisfaction Yo-Yo" at the store.. I told him the store # I bought the computer at, the amount of the ticket within $20, and I also told him the time of the sale within 15 minutes.. Knowing that he could go to his little computer and go through the reciepts on the computer and find my reciept.. I was asked how did I pay for the computer.. I then told him "I paid cash".. I was told, and I cant believe I was told this "You should have paid for the item with my credit card".. HUH? He told me I would then be in the system.. and he could find my reciept.. I then replied.. if the salesperson had done there job, and put me in the system when I made a "major purchase" then I would be in the system.. If I put it on my credit card.. I would pay interest on something I could just pay cash for! Well feeling like I was going no where at a breakneck pace... Another manager came up and so here we go again.. this manager took me over to a computer and started going through reciepts for a 2 week span of when I bought the computer.. She then asked me for my contact info, because she feared this was going to take awhile.. I can say that when I asked her "is this a tactic to get me to leave the store" she got a laugh outta that.. she said no.. I promise you I will find this.. So giving her my info.. I left.. feeling beat down from the whole morning, I went back to my office.. about 20 minutes later.. I got a call.. It was her.. and she had found my reciept.. Long story short.. My laptop is on its way to its maker to be repaired.. and all is great.. *Morale of the story* Hold on to your reciept.. or pay for a major purchase on your credit card.. so you will be in the system! LOL.. Also if you have a problem.. pray someone at the store actually wants to do thier jobs!!! lol

Your Kidding Right????

Apparently if your gay.. you have defect that can be fixed? Atleast thats what some scientists seem to think up in Oregon.. Im sorry this will probably ruffle some feathers.. but has society deemed it unacceptable to be gay? I brought this up with one of my team members tonight while bowling to get his opinion... I can tell you this much.. the conversation turned religious real quick.. Which is usually the case when the "gay discussion" comes up.. He told me one of the reasons he was against Gay Marriages is because when God set this world into motion.. he put man and woman on this earth to pro-create.. I then asked him "so has the gay community stopped men and women from pro-creating"?? He replied, "Well I guess not".. He later brought up another reason he was against gay marriage.. He said "it upsets me to see gay couples try to get married to gain the same straight marriage benefits.. I.E. Tax breaks, insurance, ect.. I replied.. You do realize that a gay couple can get medical benefits from the companies they work for, and Starbucks.. the company your son works for, offers benefits to "partners" right? He didnt reply.. The discussion ended when I asked the question "Is it possible that gay people might want to get married for the same reason you and your wife got married.. because they actually love eachother".. This discussion has been put right up there with the following no-no conversations at dinner, you know.. money, politics, religion.. and now gay marriage.. Everyone seems to have very diffrent opinions.. My dad and I have had this discussion before.. With pretty much the same results as my conversation tonight.. he made exactly the same points.. Some of the time my dad makes interesting points.. Other times I get the idea my dad should return to the stone ages.. you figure out where he belongs on this topic.. Anyway.. read the article below..

Enjoy..


Help Stop Cruel and Pointless 'Gay Sheep' Experiments


Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU), a school that has received criticism in the past for torturing monkeys in its labs, has officially been outed. Information has been brought to light about ridiculous “gay sheep” experiments that are being conducted at the school. You heard right—OHSU experimenter Charles Roselli is spending millions of taxpayer dollars to kill homosexual rams and cut open their brains in an attempt to find the hormone behind homosexual tendencies so that these tendencies can be changed. Roselli is also working with experimenter Frederick Stormshak of Oregon State University (OSU), who has surgically inserted an estrogen implant in the bodies of these rams in an effort “to restore tissue levels of estrogen comparable to those of heterosexual rams and affect sexual behavior accordingly.”

To put it simply, these experimenters believe that homosexuality is a defect that needs to be fixed, and they’re cutting open and killing gay sheep to do it. These experiments also carry the insidious implication that homosexuality in humans needs to be "cured." In his application for public funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), he states that “this research also has broader implications for understanding the development and control of sexual motivation and mate selection across mammalian species, including humans

The Wife Wants

My friends all have started calling me "ACE".. now normally this is considered a cool nickname.. Well they call me "Ace" as in Ace Ventura.. My wife and I have a herd.. we dont just have a cat.. we have 3 and the Weasel.. If you've seen the first Ace Ventura movie.. the scene where he comes home.. and says "come to me my friends" and every animal known to man comes out of the wood work.. well thats kinda what its like coming into my house.. couple of cats waiting to be fed.. The sound of a bell ringing to indicate the weasel is on the prowl.. Cheyenne is usually involved in this process as well.. So one day while looking around on the web... I hear.. "I WANT" now normally when my wife wants.. most of the time she gets.. because lets face it.. "If shes not happy, Im not happy" guys you know what Im talking about.. Anyway this is what she was talking about!!!

Want one?

This baby Slender Loris is a member of the shy, nocturnal primate species that the Zoological Society of London has listed as among the most endangered.

Cute huh??

Borrowed from MSN

*Sigh*

Well it was a wonderful weekend of football.. I acutally got to watch both games yesterday.. due to the wife reading her "fan fick" on the computer.. I went 2-2 for my predictions this weekend.. and I can honestly say I am disappointed.. Well my disappointment began last weekend with the Cowboys.. but thats another story.. wound is still fresh on that one.. Im disappointed that the Ravens offense didnt show up yesterday.. which allows Indy to move one step closer to the Superbowl.. Im also disappointed the Chargers fell short this evening.. not that I am a huge Chargers fan.. but it would be nice to see someone other then Tom Brady and the Patriots play in the Superbowl.. As a die hard Cowboys fan I can say that I am estatic that New Orleans punched the Eagles in the mouth!!! Thou can you imagine the starting QB issues in Eagle land next year, if Garcia would have been able to win it all.. Poor McNabb.. guy just cant get a break.. oh well.. I am now left with the dilema of who to root for next weekend in the Colts/Patriots game.. I cant stand the Colts.. but dont want to see the Patriots in the Superbowl yet again.. So here is my prediction for the Superbowl..

Saints/Colts.. If the Saints make it to the big show.. let the media frenzy and the feel good story of the year start porring out, until we are all sick!!!

I found Elvis!!!

Me and my buddy Elvis in the studio last year.. Hopefully with any luck we will be back in the studio real soon.. Elvis has tons of talent.. and belongs on stage!! If you want to hear some of his music.. check out the bands myspace page.. He has 4 songs on his page.. and usually changes them out once a week..

What they say is true....

Whoever said that having a ferret, is like having a 2 year old child.. they were'nt kidding.. Meet Jax.. or as I like to call him Jax Vin Weasel.. My wife and I have decided we need to get a sign that says "Warning Attack Weasel".. When Jax is running loose in the house.. no cat is safe.. our cats are subject to a sneak attack at anytime.. His favorite move is to sneak under the coffee table and spring out and chase an unexpecting cat around the house! Poor cats.. His other favorite past time is to chase our daughter around the house.. and bite at her toes.. very very funny stuff to watch!!!

Redneck Horoscopes!!!

Some of us Southerners are pretty skeptical of horoscopes and the
people that read them. If we are to ever fully understand all the star
signs and the people they represent, we need symbols that all true
Southerners understand. See the list below...

POSSUM (Dec 22 - Jan 20)When confronted with life's difficulties,
possums have a marked tendency to withdraw and develop a
don't-bother-me-about-it attitude. Sometimes you become so withdrawn,
people actually think you're dead. This strategy is probably not
psychologically healthy but seems to work for you. You are a rare breed.
Most folks love to watch you work and play. You are a night person and
mind your own business.

CHITLIN (Jan 21 - Feb 19) Chitlins come from humble backgrounds. A
Chitlin, however, will make something of himself if he is motivated and
has lots of seasoning. In dealing with Chitlins, be careful they may
surprise you. They can erupt like Vesuvius. Chitlins are best with
Catfish and Okra.

BOLL WEEVIL (Feb 20 - March 20) You have an overwhelming curiosity.
You're unsatisfied with the surface of things, and you feel the need to
bore deep into the interior of everything. Needless to say, you are very
intense and driven as if you had some inner hunger. You love to stay
busy and tend to work too much. Nobody in their right mind is going to
marry you, so don't worry about it.

MOON PIE (March 21 - April 20) You're the type that spends a lot of
time on the front porch. A cinch to recognize the physical appearance of
Moon Pies. Big and round are the key words here. You should marry
anybody who you can get remotely interested in the idea. It's not going
to be easy. You always have a big smile and are happy. This might be the
year to think about aerobics. Maybe not.

OKRA (April 21 - May 21) Are tough on the outside but tender on the
inside. Okras have tremendous influence. An older Okra can look back
over his life and see the seeds of his influence everywhere. You can do
something good each day if you try.

CRAWFISH (May 22 - June 21) Crawfish is a water sign. If you work in
an office, you're hanging around the water cooler. Crawfish prefer the
beach to the mountains, the pool to the golf course, and the bathtub to
the living room. You tend not to be particularly attractive physically,
but you have very, very good heads.

COLLARDS (June 22 - July 23) Collards have a genius for communication.
They love to get in the melting pot of life and share their essence with
the essence of those around them. Collards make good social workers,
psychologists, and baseball managers. As far as your personal life goes,
if you are Collards, stay away from Crawfish. It just won't work. Save
yourself a lot of heartache.

CATFISH (July 24 - Aug 23) Catfish are traditionalists in matters of
the heart, although one's whiskers may cause problems for loved ones.
You Catfish are never easy people to understand. You run fast. You work
and play hard. Even though you prefer the muddy bottoms to the clear
surface of life, you are liked by most. Above all else, Catfish should
stay away from Moon Pies.

GRITS (Aug 24 - Sept 23) Your highest aim is to be with others like
yourself. You like to huddle together with a big crowd of other Grits.
You love to travel though, so maybe you should think about joining a
club. Where do you like to go? Anywhere they have cheese, gravy, bacon,
butter, or eggs and a good time. If you can go somewhere where they have
all these things, that serves you well. You are pure in heart.

BOILED PEANUTS (Sept 24 - Oct 23) You have a passionate desire to help
your fellow man. Unfortunately, those who know you best, your friends
and loved ones, may find that your personality is much too salty, and
their criticism will affect you deeply because you are really much
softer than you appear. You should go right ahead and marry anybody you
want to because in a certain way, yours is a charmed life. On the road
of life, you can be sure that people will always pull over and stop for
you.

BUTTER BEAN (Oct 24 - Nov 22) Always invite a Butter Bean to a party
because Butter Beans get along well with everybody. You, as a Butter
Bean, should be proud. You've grown on the vine of life, and you feel at
home no matter what the setting. You can sit next to anybody. However,
you, too, shouldn't have anything to do with Moon Pies.

ARMADILLO (Nov 23 - Dec 21) You have a tendency to develop a tough
exterior, but you are actually quite gentle and kind inside. A good
evening for you? Old friends, a fire, some roots, fruit, worms, and
insects. You are a throwback. You're not concerned with today's fashions
and trends. You're not concerned with anything about today. You're
almost prehistoric in your interests and behavior patterns. You probably
want to marry another Armadillo, but a Possum is another somewhat kinky
mating possibility.

Thanks Rob

When I set out...

When I started this blog.. I said I would try to post something everyday.. but alas.. my brain is mush after a long day at the office.. please enjoy the comic.. Ill be back on it tomorrow..

A better time..

Can anyone tell me at the exact moment when Sports became a business.. instead of a sport?? Id like to think it was when the AFL became the NFL and signed its life away to major networks to broadcast games.. I could be wrong.. I am told stories of when players played sports for the love of the game.. Wow what a concept.. Doing something you love, because you love doing it?? Impossible.. I have even heard stories of football players that went back to their normal jobs after their seasons ended.. Really?? You mean players havent always been paid millions of dollars from companies, just to say they like the crap they are selling?? Sports today are nothing more then a business.. Think about this.. whatever happened to the days when a college player declared themselves for the draft, a team like his performance.. and come draft day.. this team selects the player, and wants them to join their team, only to be told.. "If you draft me, Ill sit and wont play for you" Excuse me?? Eli Manning did this 3 years ago.. San Deigo has the first pick in the draft, they draft Eli, and then they trade him to the Giants to get Philip Rivers.. who by the way had a better season this year.. The Manning family felt Eli would make more money in New York.. you know contract, endorsments.. ect.. You can thank John Elway for this.. he actually did the samething.. later followed by Bo Jackson..And here I thought if a pro team wanted you.. you should be happy because you made it to the highest level of your chosen sport.. When did your abilities to play a sport earn you more money then people make to run the country? The president makes roughly last I saw about $300,000 a year.. and after he leaves office.. he is taken care of for the rest of his life.. if you add up the salary for a 4 year term.. and the pention he draws after he leaves office.. it still doesnt add up to a rookie's signing bonus.. Whatever happened to the days when a feild was named after a great person, not the highest bidding company?? We see how that worked out for Houston.. Remember Enron?? Have you ever watched interviews with players these days?? Most sound uneducated.. and the phrase "Ya know what Im sayin" comes way to often.. Well yeah I know what your sayin.. had you stayed in college, instead of looking for the fat signing bonus you might sound alittle more educated! I know its a tough choice to stay in school.. when you listen to Mel Kiper yelling about where you will go in the draft.. and then you factor in what happens if you get hurt.. well you could use that college degree to get a job?? I mean hell your there on a full ride scholarship.. where kids who cant play sports are stuck working 2 jobs, and their parents take out a second mortgage to give their kids the education you take for granted....

When will it end???

Well it seems that the circus known as Barry Bonds life is in the news yet again.. Im sorry but is anyone else but me tired of hearing about Barry Bonds?? Bonds makes headlines again today because he failed a drug test last season.. Really?? Oh my god, I just cant believe it.. PFFT! Bonds is the poster child for steroids in Baseball.. The only reason he and Jason Giambi werent in front of the Congress with their "brothers in steroids" is because they were involved in the Balco Case.. Im left wondering when Baseball will grow tired of all this negative attention and ACTUALLY do something about it.. You dont have to be a genuis to figure out Bonds is using something.. Answer me this.. if your not using any kind of performance enhancing drugs, or steroids.. how does your head grow 3 helmet sizes over the span of your career?? Every single player that has been named in Jose Canseco's book, has either retired I.E. Mark Mcguire and Sammy Sosa.. or have seen their stats drop out of sight.. along with their muscle mass.. Sadly enough.. during the baseball season.. ESPN has Bonds on sportscenter building him up like a god, because he is closing in on the all time homerun record.. he passed Babe Ruth this year.. and will most likely pass Hank Aaron next season.. Im sorry but if Baseball allows this to happen... Then they dont care about the history of this game..

Very Very Cool...

This link ended up on the "Dallas Crew" group page.. Thanks Richie.. Ya know.. if you told me that I would be watching the Simpsons with my kids.. I would have said your crazy.. 2 Reasons.. 1. I never thought I would find a woman that would put up with me, and never thought I would have kids.. 2. Who ever thought that a cartoon that started out as a "short" on the Tracy Ullman show would still be around 15+ years later.. and still turning out new episodes every Sunday? Enjoy this picture.. and check out the link below.. so this artist some love :)

Draft Guru? I think not

Anyone who watchs ESPN.. knows who this is.. This is ESPN's very own Mel Kiper Jr.. Self proclaimed college draft expert.. Riiiight!!! We will get to that in a second.. The reason I am bringing this post to light today is because a buddy of mine sent me a question Mel was asked on his webpage.. anyway.. He was asked about Troy Smiths stock after his performance in the National Championship game.. Here is the question..

Anthony (NYC): Mel with the Senior Bowl and the combines coming up does that give Troy Smith a chance raise his stock up again after his performance on Monday.
Mel Kiper: (1:26 PM ET ) It does, and the game did not fall solely on Troy Smith, their O line must take a lot of blame. i think that effected Smith a lot, and that lack of ideal height showed up. And his longer delivery showed up when the heat was put on by the Florida D. So now I think he may drop to the 3rd or 4th round. Remember he did not have a super high grade going into this game. So yes he needs to reestablish himself before the draft.

Wow Mel.. thats kinda vague dont you think?? But of course with your vague draft board.. you can still save face in the eyes of your ESPN coworkers.. Wouldnt want anyone to figure out your full of crap.. I think my biggest problem with Kiper.. is that he blasts on teams who dont take his scouting on a player.. My buddy that brought this to my attention, also brought up this intresting point..

-All you need to know about mel kiper is 2 years ago when he yelled for 2 straight months about how mike williams was the best player in the draft, and after every pick (until #10) he said how teams were stupid for passing on him. 2 years later he is on the verge of being cut (BY DETROIT!!!) and has 2 career touchdowns.... great talent evaluation mel...

We in Dallas know where to go when we want the truth about the draft.. Rick "Goose" Gosselin...

Here are someother links for your reading pleasure.. to support this theory.. that Mel Kiper is full of it.. :)

Mavricks/Heat Game 1 NBA Finals

So while cruising around my buddy Phil's website sound of nothing.. which is linked on my homepage.. I discovered he had pictures of our trip to game one of the NBA finals last year.. We all know how that turned out.. *sigh.. Hey but they did win the game we were at.. maybe we should have went to all the games.. things might have turned out diffrent :) Sorry Phil.. had to post the picture with the hair.. Ah the things we do for our teams!! Enjoy :)

A fathers worst nightmare!

At some point over the years from when I was a kid, until the time I grew up and became a father.. I must have missed this fashion trend.. While shopping over the Christmas holidays with my wife and mother-in-law at a mall near our house.. My daughter discoverd a store named Libby Lu.. It seems they do "makeovers".. or atleast thats what they are calling it.. This store is aimed at little girls ages 8-12 .. So the wife, mother-in-law, and daughter venture in.. look around.. and come home with a little brochure of the diffrent makeovers they offer at this store.. Of course Cheyenne has to have one.. She was told that if she came up with the half the price a makeover.. we would cover the other half.. Well with it being Christmas.. the checks come pouring in for her. *sigh* We load up, and head over to the mall.. Walk into this store.. I about fell over when I saw what some little girls were being made up to look like.. Now I consider myself somewhat of an open minded father.. still being young enough to remember what "cool" is.. my first thought "OH HELL NO" I would let my child out of the house looking like any of these girls.. not gonna happen.. So we walk up to the counter.. and find out that we have to make an appointment.. Appointment?? are you serious?? now keep in mind Cheyenne has to have one of the makeovers.. So we make the appointment.. we wander around the mall.. hit a few stores to buy the wife goodies for her birthday.. and come back for the appointment.. I dont think that I would have picked this makeover out, but Cheyenne wanted it.. I like to consider myself a rock.. you know the kind of father that puts his foot down and doesnt budge.. Here is the picture to prove just what kinda of rock I am!!!

The Bat..

My mother-in-law.. aka Bat.. added me to her blog tonight.. this is what she had to say..
Ok, just when I’m ready to head off to la la land, I get an email from the ick in law telling me he’s started his own blog. Now, there are sports fan, there are sports fanatics and then there is the sports lunatic. He falls into the latter category.

So, go see what he’s babbling about at The Bare Nessecities (yep, spelled wrong on purpose…the brat did it!)

2 points here..

1. The spelling has been corrected.. We did not notice it was spelled wrong until she pointed it out so :P

2. I am a sports lunatic.. and proud of it!!! My blog will not be all sports related.. it has just kinda worked out that way!!!

Thanks Bat for the add.. and thanks for letting the whole world know that Im a Sports Lunatic!!! You say this like its a bad thing?? :)

We did not win the good fight tonight!

Me doing what I love to do.. I wish I could say that my team won the good fight tonight.. but the team we bowled are alot of fun.. so its not to bad losing all 4 games.. Much props to Robert! He shot 670 tonight!!! Damn Sandbagger!!! :) Just for the record.. I shot 701.. 260/229/212.. This picture was also a strike btw!!!

The disc gods smiled this day..

This is my buddy from Houston Lance.. Known this cat about 15 years easy.. Him and my other buddy Brayton introduced me to this crazy game called disc golf.. aka "stoner golf".. you figure it out.. .. They injected the plastic into my veins as they like to say .. This is hole number 8 on a course in Houston called Agnes Moffit Park.. This is a 217 foot hole from the short tee.. My buddy lance who has been playing for about 3 years.. has dreamed of a "hole in one".. and has come close several times.. Couple of them have hit the chains.. a few have even skimmed the top of the basket.. only to land mere inches from the basket.. Not on this day! Lance aced this hole after throwing 8 horrible practice shots during practice before league.. Not only did he ace this hole..but he proceded to shoot a 60 for the day.. Did I mention that he did this with a frisbee? I would like to think that after this basket was signed, and Lance posed for this picture.. Brayton, Lance, and Herb conducted what they call a "Saftey Meeting" Congrats Lance!! You sir.. Are the man!!!

National Championship 2005

This was the scene last year, as Vince Young produced one of the greatest performances in the history of college football.. Not only did he will the Longhorns to their 4th National Title in school history.. But the Longhorns beat ESPN's "Greatest College Team" of all time...

Hot Sports Opinions

This is something that I posted on the "Dallas Crews" website last night.. and thought it was so good.. that I would post it here.. :) Enjoy....


Keep in mind when you read this, the H.S.O's you will be reading are merely mine.. so please enjoy..
Last night hurt.. it was like someone ripped our blue and silver hearts out, spiked it like a touchdown celebration.. and stomped on it until it stopped beating.. But alas.. as I see it.. we as Cowboy fans do take some bright points to next season.. Once again.. these are merely my H.S.O's

1. We have our starting quarterback in place.. Yes Romo did play like a rookie at the worst possible time down the stretch.. But how many games did we watch him avoid a sack? How many times did we watch him scramble out of the pocket to avoid pressure and make a play? How many times did we watch him pick a ball up off the ground and make a play? Drew Bledsoe may be the 5th all time passing yards quarterback in NFL history.. but lets face it.. Bledsoe could not have done that, at any given time in his career..

2. Our first round draft pick this year is finally out on the field.. Carpenter looked good last night, and may not be as big a bust as once projected..

3. Our Offensive line stayed healthy.. They did allow Bledsoe to take a pounding.. but they pulled together and were out on the field as a unit week in and week out.. Also they are no longer the weakest link on this team..

4. Greg Ellis made his position change.. And after he got hurt.. we can really see how much the pass rush suffered... Ware is only one Manbeast!

5. Demarcus Ware will be here next year.. Need I say More??

6. I am in no way shape or form defending T.O. but he did lead the league in TD's, he also had over 1000 yrd receiving... Yes he did lead the league in dropped passes.. but he was also the most thrown to receiver this year in the leauge.. Next year in training camp.. maybe he will refrain from putting on the Team Discovery cycling outfit.. and get on the field and develop some timing with his QB, and learn to run some better routes.. Yes I said next year.. because lets face it. Jones will look at the numbers, and his performance.. and he will bring him back.. Jones has already stated "I want him back" T.O has already stated he wants to come back.. and yes ladies and gentlemen.. The New Jersey Con Man will be back next year as well.. The Tuna finally has his team in place.. and he likes this team.. He has said many times in various press confrences that this is the best team he has had.. since he has been in Dallas..

7. Adams looked good after coming off major knee surgery...

8. I would like to hope that Roy Williams goes out to his local Half Price Book in the off season, and picks up a copy of "Deep Coverage for Dummies" because lets face it.. he may be the hardest hitting person in the league.. and may be the second coming of Ronnie Lott.. but he is begining to look like a "struck match" from being burnt several times in deep coverage this year..

If memory serves correct... our own group sports guru, or as I like to call him Yoda projected the Cowboys to go to the playoffs this year.. so I tip my hat to you Yoda.. Im sure that in the off season we will set up our own war room and watch the draft.. unless he has to be an "arm charm" again for a wedding.. We will sit back and drink some good whiskey, smoke a good cigar.. and point and laugh at teams, while they seek out the Combine Warriors to ink to mulitmillion dollar contracts.. This years draft gave us such picks as The Texans drafting Mario Williams to a 6 year 54 million dollar deal.. and the sad thing about this pick is that he wasnt even the best defensive player on his team in college.. and that Bobby Carpenter was only out on the field for a handful of games this year.. and he out performed Mario Williams.. who started every game.. We saw Reggie Bush fall into New Orleans lap.. Merry Christmas New Orleans.. man what a team they put together in the off season. and they really got a sleeper pick in the 6th round with Colston.. Wow.. that kid can play.. We saw Matt Lienart drop like a rock in the draft, while Denver trades up to pick Jay Cutler ..How did your Combine Warrior work out for you this year?? We heard the ESPN experts.. oh sorry.. I actually chuckled when I typed that make such comments before the season started as "Is he smart enough to run an offense in the NFL" "His passing mechanics wont work in the NFL" "Matt Leinart will be the only quaterback in this years draft to make an immediate impact on the NFL" Well Mr Salsbury.. just like your less then steller career in the NFL.. Matt Lienart was a losing quarterback this year.. and the 2-3 year project as you called him won rookie of the year.. Yes ladies and gentleman.. I am refering to Mr Clutch.. Mr Rosebowl.. Mr Vince Young. Young led the Titans to how many wins in a row down the stretch? Passed for over 2200 yrds, 12 TD and 13 INT's.. and I forget how many rushing TD's.. Went down to Houston.. a team that could have picked him.. but sunk a bunch of money into David Carr.. Young took his Titans down the field, and finished the Texans off in overtime with a 39 yard scramble to glory to win the game.. as only Young can do.. I would like to think that when Young crossed the goalline.. He was thinking "Damn.. You could have had all this.. by the way.. how is your number 1 draft pick workin out for you this season BITCH!" So to all the Vince Young skeptics out there in the media, and world wide I say to you "GOOD DAY"! Young has proven himself to not only be a solid draft pick with unlimited upside.. but he also prolly single handly saved Jeff Fishers job.. and brought new hope to a fading organization! This has been a wild year in the NFL..
GO COWBOYS in O7!

So here it is..

A little about yours truly..

First things first.. Im glad you have taken a bit of time out of your day to read my new blog.. This is my first attempt at a blog.. My mother-in-law has a somewhat popular blog, and has been doing this for sometime.. I will link it.. as soon as I get the permission to do so from her.. Would'nt want her to come down from "Cheesehead" land and kill me.. or better yet.. call her daughter to handle her lightwork.. Im waaay to young to be taken out in my sleep! :) Ok, so Im a 30 something family man with a wonderful wife who I have been "happily married" to for 10 years.. least thats what she keeps telling me.. *ducks to avoid flying objects" I have 2 daughters ages 8 and 14.. I grew up in what I like to call "The black hole form which nothing can escape" aka Houston... Looking back.. I really should have moved to Dallas alot sooner.. I am a big time sports fan.. Football isnt just a sport to me.. but a way of life.. My wife hates football, and with a passion.. so this presents a problem from time to time.. Been a Cowboys fan for as long as I can remember, Texas Longhorn fan even longer.. I manage a loan office.. and most people call me a "loanshark" I perfer the term Shylock :) Anyway.. once again I would like to thank you for reading my blog.. I can promise you one thing... this will be interesting!!!!
