Allen Iverson Really?

The NBA All Star Selections were announced this afternoon and I couldn’t believe what I heard. Allen Iverson made the team as a starter? Tim Duncan surpassed Dirk Nowitzki in the last week of voting?

The fans really don’t care about how is deserving of a starting job in the All Star Game. It’s really evident this year.

Iverson has played 19 games! Most teams have played twice that. Iverson also has only decent numbers too.

I don’t follow the NBA much outside the Dallas Mavericks, but I know there has to be someone more deserving than Allen Iverson.

Then it gets worse. Dirk clearly deserves a spot over Duncan this year. And what ever happened to a little courtesy of starting in your own town?

I won’t watch the game anyway since it’s a completely useful game, but still some players just deserve the accolades. Others don’t.

Hey, at least the skills competition and celebrity game are fun to watch.

It’s Time For Baseball Season-For Dallas Anyway

With the Dallas Cowboys exit last weekend, it’s time to start thinking baseball. Spring Training starts next month, and the local Texas Rangers are set to have a great season. The Cowboys loss puts a sour taste in many fans mouths, including mine.

Although, I will say I never saw the Cowboys defeating the Saints if it came to that. If anything the Cowboys exit is exactly what sports fan in the DFW metropolis needed.

Sports fans in Dallas have it a little rough right now especially with the Dallas Stars having one of the worst seasons on record. The Dallas Mavericks are good, but they just don’t have the big draw right now.

The problem with the Mavericks is the rest of the NBA. Dallas is good, but they are not the best team and it’s going to take a lot of surprises for them to catch on this year.

The Texas Rangers have a really good chance at bringing back a championship to Texas. There are some new faces, and the Rangers finally have pitching. The offense should be back too.

I’ll have more on the Rangers as the season draws closer, but please get excited.

The Morning After

Well, the Dallas Cowboys run is finally over this season after a loss to the Minnesota Vikings yesterday. It was a good season for Dallas despite some issues. Yesterday’s loss though is a real heart breaker, at least to the fan, because of the domination by the Vikings.

I said the Cowboys would win when the Vikings become more of a one dimensional team. Well, the Vikings did become more of a passing attack, but the Cowboys secondary was outplayed.

The secondary could not stop plays from turning into big plays. Big plays change the momentum of a game, and they all went the Vikings way.

Shaun Suisham didn’t help the Cowboys either with his missed field goals. However, he didn’t lose the game for Dallas. The game was about scoring touchdowns not kicking field goals.

Miles Austin was finally shut down because pressure got to Tony Romo too many times. The rhythm of the Cowboys offense never got going.

It’s not usually a victory when the tight end leads the team in receiving, and that’s what happened yesterday.

The game was simply one of those when you get beat. Minnesota was a better team yesterday and it showed.

Be sure to hear more thoughts on the Cowboys and the rest of the playoff action in the next podcast later this week.
