105.3 The (Irrelevant) Fan

In the past, I’ve offered my analysis of both ESPN 103.3 and The Ticket.

Rangers Frustration!

As a Rangers’ fan, I should be accustomed to being frustrated. This team did a great job of teasing us all earlier this season, but now reality is beginning to set in.  We might hold on to first place for another night, but it won’t be long.  The weaknesses of this team have been exposed …

Texas Rangers fever!

I mentioned in my last piece that I’d look to get back to more political discussion. However, I am not going to overlook the Texas Rangers.
