Sports Blast with other comments



Well Pro football is about to begin. And not soon enough. I am not talking because football is here, but because Presidential Politics are way too over the top right now. Seriously; 16 official candidates for the Republican Party vying for our attention and now they are all trying to get into an argument with one just to get on the media’s radar screen.

Back to football and back to guessing what kind of year are the Cowboys going to have. Last year we had no expectations, this year we are back to winning the big game expectations. What is the reality?

Training camp is suppose to help give us the answer so no predictions from me for now. I will make these statements. Cowboys still need to establish a solid running game. Tony Romo is not going to be the reason we might have a winning season. He will be an integral part, but he cannot come close to being the super hero he never was. I still feel he is a viable quarterback in the NFL and we need him to win, but it cannot be up to him to win. He needs a team effort. Dez is important, so will the new contract embolden him or spoil him? Lets’ hope he decides he wants to be the shine on the star this year and keeps up what he has done over the last few years. Yet we still need a running game and two good solid receivers to support Dez to give our offense some true balance. We will need to score points. Lets hope DeMarco was only a player loss, not a loss in production. If three backs get more than 1500 yards that will be real beneficial. That is a big if, unless one steps up and has a fairly good year by them self. The offensive line is there so the potential is there. The defense improved last year from the previous year, however, we still need it to take another step up for us to be successful.
I will make my season predictions closer to 09/13.

How bad was it for the Mavs? Sheesh. I wish they had pursued another plan in free agency, but right now I am only sitting on the sideline with hindsight. Lets hope something happens between now and the start of the season or this wunderkin of a center in the summer league turns out to be somewhat of a real deal. Otherwise I will maintain a positive attitude and suffer through the season. Anyway more to come for them once we get close to the regular season. Still love the Mavs. Wish they would learn to love the draft for a few years.

The Stars made somewhat of a splash in free agency, but since I am only a casual fan I will let others comment on the pros and cons for them.
And the Rangers keep trying to give us reason to hope. You have to give them credit. I had said if they are a few games over .500 at the All Star break that would be good. Well…… now they need a 15 out of 20 hot streak to get back in it before too much longer. Still miss Darvish, yet Prince came back from his injury last year and is helping to fuel the hope. If some of the pitchers could find something, well who knows. They are doing better than I thought. And so for you Robert, I am still behind your little red shoe Rangers.

Have you ever noticed all the qualities that help you get elected are the qualities the public doesn’t need you to have once you get elected?

Movies are just too damn expensive now a days. Add in the snacks and forget groceries for the week. There are so many movies I want to see, ain’t going to happen. So which Presidential candidate is going to lower movie prices? Hahahaha

Oh and in case you didn’t notice, it is hot outside. Glad I am not going to training camp. And what is worse there use to be something called Bllllueeee Beeelllllll ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the wait is killing me. How can you have national ice cream day without the best ice cream???????

And unfortunately the countdown is about to begin for Jon Stewart. Sorry to see him go.
