Scattershooting

Since I have a renewed interest in promoting my blog, I am just going to come out and start posting as much random stuff as possible in the hopes that someone reads this stupid page. But because this is a DFW sports blog at heart, you will be seeing plenty of Rangers, Stars, Mavs, Cowboys, SMU, TCU, FC Dallas, Fort Worth Cats, and anything else DFW sports related. Anyways, let's get going.....

In a surprising twist, the Mavs have decided to use their mid-cap exception on signing another blast from the past, Greg Buckner.

While Buckner was a nice player in his time here in Dallas and some of his other stops (Philadelphia and Denver), the fact remains he has never averaged more than 7 pts. in his entire career. Sure it's nice that he had 86 3 pointers last year which led his team and played some good hustling defense which is I'm sure something Avery likes to see in guys. But this seems a little disappointnig considering the Mavs were SO CLOSE to signing a Mike James, a guard with a ring who averaged over 20 points a game last year in Toronto.

Regardless, the Mavs are going to be formidable next year with whoever ends up coming back and I'm still looking forward to next season even if I don't watch a game until January. Still so bitter.....

No idea how the hell my dad got this link from some ND Alum buddy of his but I found it rather disturbing if not mildly funny about the evil that is USC.

America has Another Fan

Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in a recent interview with ABC let his feelings known about America, and shockingly, they weren't that Good. Here is a sample:

"Americans have a severe disease — worse than AIDS. It's called the winner's complex," he said. "You want an American style-democracy here. That will not work."

I like the constant updates, lets see how long you can keep it up. We might need to get some themes to help you stay on the right path...... not venturing off into politics, govt, etc. Maybe Mon is MLB, Tue is NFL, Wed is PGA tour day, Thurs is NBA, and Friday is my personal favorite Nascar/WWE.

Just a thought.
