The calendar reads November 1, 2011, which means tonight I should be heading down to the American Airlines Center for opening night of Mavs basketball. While Opening Night in the NBA may not carry the same cachet as Opening Day in Major League Baseball, it’s still a special time on the sports calendar, so much …

Sounds like the start of a great joke doesn’t it? For those of us living in reality, the answer is rather obvious–two hucksters who were masters at brainwashing a gullible section of the population. Today, most normal people look at those suckered by Hubbard and shake their head. How could anyone actually believe that crap? …

As someone who has had the opportunity to attend baseball games in some of the most historic parks (Wrigley, Fenway, and the old Yankee Stadium just to name a few), I’ve always dreamed of the day Dallas gets their downtown park and the excitement that comes along with it. Imagine being able to sneak out …

If you followed my advice in the previous post, you have booked your flight to Love Field and a room at a hotel in the downtown/Uptown area. Even if you chose to fly into D/FW, let’s hope you heeded my advice on the hotels and are staying in Dallas proper, as opposed to some far …

On March 19, it was sunny and 71 in Dallas. On March 20, 2010, we received 1.3 inches of snow. Yes, that’s right, the first day of Spring brought SNOW to Dallas. This brings the total snowfall for this season to 17.3 inches and barely misses breaking the all-time seasonal record for the Dallas/Fort Worth …

Nothing screams Freshman year of high school like NBA Jam. Well, maybe the untimely death of Kurt Cobain, but the arcade hit, and subsequent Super Nintendo favorite played a large role in my life in 1994. I remember sitting in class, passing notes back and forth with my friends trying to get “cheats” for the game, …

The theater of the absurd surrounding the Ron Washington’s ride on the “white horse,” continues to evolve into one of the strangest, most wheels-off sports story, in the history of Dallas, which considering the Dallas Cowboys, says a lot. Randy Galloway, a favorite target of Geoausch.Com, wrote a piece for the Fort Worth Star-Telegram this …

Two years ago, Stephanie and I moved into a beautiful, pre-World War II four-plex in the heart of University Park. We fell in love with the hardwood floors, built in bookcases and location the first time we laid eyes upon it. A week after we moved into our second floor unit, Mark, a piano playing …

Cowboys fans, including myself, expect “greatness.” Over the years, we have been spoiled by one of the most successful sports franchises. We are not accustomed to being mediocre and we have a hard time accepting it when that may really be the case. So, we look for excuses. The coach sucks. The quarterback isn’t serious …

At Monday’s Wade Phillips’ press conference, CBS 11 sports reporter Steve Dennis asked the Cowboys’ coach if he considered his team “winners.” By virtue of owning a winning record, this Cowboys team is, by definition, a “winner.” Of course, “winning” can mean a lot of different things. Dennis posed this question to Wade Phillips to …
