Quick Strike







    Just another hockey game on a really busy sports weekend leaves the NHL game between the Dallas Stars and The Tampa Bay Lightning as the long lost step child in the weekend adventures. The Stars took e a 3 to 1 lead in the 3rd period but almost loose the goose by giving up 2 late period goals.
   Seemed like the team even felt the lack of enthusiasm for the areas most recent sports import. They ended up saving grace with a Wandell goal 2 minutes into the overtime period for the win. Hope they keep that up since they have played way too many overtime games already this season.

The Dallas Cowboys played the Washington Redskins for an NFC East divisional game on Sunday. Turned out the only thing pretty about this one was the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders along the sidelines.
With a final score of 7 to 6 and the Cowboys not getting the winning touchdown till the last 2 minutes there were not a whole lot of things to brag about for either team. Guess all the fans just talked about how impressive the new stadium was and the fact that the sun didn't shine on them during the game.

NASCAR Weekend









   Ahhh, the smell of race fuel and the stench of smoking tires in the morning. Smells like victory, at least for someone at Texas Motor Speedway as the NASCAR boys roll into town. Add some barbeque and a whole lot of beer and you got a real Texas party.
    Couple of big surprises with Kurt Busch winning in a fuel mileage duel and Jimmie Johnson making an early exit, and a whole lot of over promotion to go around. Seemed that most everyone had fun under some gorgeous weather.
