Get crackin’, woman!
The Dallas Stars have their first preseason home game this week. (Incidentally, the last Texas Rangers game we’ll be going to this season is the following day. Two sports. My two favorite sports. Two days in a row. Woo-hoo!!!) I picked out the top (fingertip part) of the team-color mittens I knitted last year in […]
What am I doing?
So what would you guess I’m doing right now? Reading about the Dallas Stars, post-draft, new coaching staff & salary cap. Reading a great Lifehacker article about spending money. Reading a great Lifehacker article about Facebook notifications. Reading a great Lifehacker article about an app that reminds you to take a break, refocus (literally) and […]
A Hockey Post: What Does the NHL Really Hate?
If you’re a hockey fan, you know that the NHL has been all up in arms the last year or so about certain hits. More and more players are suffering serious injuries, especially concussions. The final straw, apparently, came this past season when St. Sid was knocked out of the Penguins’ lineup for several months […]
No comment*
Really, don’t say that! *Except to say that I actually have no right at all to use these images. As soon as anyone connected with the Dallas Stars (Razor’s photo) or Defending Big D (the puck’s photo) says anything, I’ll take it down. Or as soon as I start making money off of it, I […]
Just for the hockey fans
Or Daryl “Razor” Reaugh fans. (Yeah, the rest of you won’t care.) Razor thinks it’s silly that Stars fans are superstitious. Stars goalie Kari Lehtonen was having a great season, but until just a few games ago he didn’t have a shut out as a Dallas Star. Every time the opposing team hadn’t scored and […]
After the Ball Is Over, so to speak
Post Superbowl note: Rich spent most of his time at Cowboy Stadium, and almost all of the actual game, stationed on the Green Bay sideline, at the Green Bay 10 yard line. He did spend a little time in one of the tunnels, where he was almost run over by Jerry Jones. (Jones, not surprisingly […]
It’s Superbowl Sunday, and other facts
It’s 4pm on Superbowl Sunday and I’ve already had too much beer and nachos. Why, no, I’m not at Cowboy Stadium. I’m at home by myself. Why? Rich is at the Superbowl, working on the Game Day Frequency Coordination team. They’re wearing all black (NFL-supplied shirts and jackets, their own pants) and red baseball caps […]
Hello? Hello?
I have a bunch of really great topics that I plan to blog about, but only have time for a quick note right now. [Liar, liar, pants on fire, nose as long as a telephone pole.*] Yeah, well, anyway. I don’t think anybody besides me ever reads this blog, because there are virtually never any […]
Hockey and the Daddle!
First, Mike Modano & Marty Turco. Good on ’em both for finding jobs! Rich and I are big Turco fans, so we’re happy he’ll be playing for Chicago. I think he’s as good as he ever was, and just wasn’t getting something here in Dallas — support from defense, coaching [my guess], something — that […]
Four more years!
Mr. March on the Stars calendar, and my boy! What? Did you think I was talking about politics?
