Naw, it's not the chat session

It’s the presence of Boggs in the lineup that gives RW another supposed “speed factor” to put up there.

My question is why the F do I have to watch Laird catch – AGAIN???

I rarely eat fast food

I have never, ever

been to a Cowboys game :( And I have been cheering since I was three, or so my mom says. She said I was a toddler and would cuss at the TV. I just never seem to get u there, and with only 8 games a year at home, there isn’t a lot of opportunities.

by Melmart1 on Sep 17, 2008 10:34 PM CDT up reply actions  

I went to a Cowboys pre-season game a few years ago

Probably not the same, and I’m not a big fan, but I got cheap tix, so I was all over it.

I still regret never getting to a Mavs or Stars game while I was living near Dallas. Ah well. NBA’s not really my thing and I’m STILL trying to learn hockey.

I am a Spurs fan

being from San Antonio and have been to plenty of games, quite a few vs. the Mavs, but all down here. I have been to lots of minor league games, in fact i covred a Houston Aeros AHL game for the Houston Chronicle last year. Man, they sure do treat reporters well there!

We go to Jack

or a place down here called “Chacho’s” that is a fast food Mexican restaurant. You order something called the King Kong Nachos and six people can eat off of it. Good for nights when you went overboard and spent too much at the bar.

Yeah

Shaky control did him in, and necessitated the usage of Mendoza… who promptly allowed several inhereited runs to score along with 6 of his own.

We also made 3 errors, which obviously didn’t help.

I turned it off when Mendoza came in. Can pretty well guess why. Where does Mendoza fit in the future of the Texas Rangers Baseball Club? My guess is “the trash can”.
