On Sunday, January 20, 2019, the Los Angeles Rams beat the New Orleans Saints, 26 – 23. That’s all you really need to know right there… …unless you want to hear how the Saints feel like they were robbed, like they should have gone to the Super Bowl, and potentially been the champions. Late in the 4th quarter, the Saints and Rams were tied 20-20. … Read more
I’m sitting at the Gateway Cafe in Southlake, TX, wondering what it would take to walk away from everything… …I don’t know. Maybe it’s the Earl Grey Latte I’m drinking and the gloomy weather outside, but my mind is restless and it has wandered.

You talk about exciting! I don’t think I’ve ever been in an arena that was more intense, electric, loud, and fun. The place was hoppin! When … Read more
I am all about hockey. I’ve had a blast this past season as a partial season ticket holder to the Dallas Stars. Last night was the first playoff game I’ve been to, and it just made me realize that there is no other playoff series like Stanley Cup hockey. Football, baseball, soccer, basketball… none come even close to the intensity, speed, tenacity, skill, determination, and … Read more
I don’t know if you’ve been following the Congressional hearings of McNamee vs. Clemens… but it is both a joke and sad at the same time. I got to thinking about this, and a new word came to my mind. Be looking for this word in the next edition of Webster’s Dictionary. impenouchable noun /im-pen-uhch-a-buhl/ – a person who believes they are above reproach as to … Read more
