Not real sure about The Dirty. Who is this “Nik”? What is a “Shim”? Isn’t it a little way late to boast yourself as “the world’s first ever reality blogger”? Whatever. The site has some interesting pics. Don’tcha think so, Cristal?…
When it comes to your Texas Rangers, we’re about to find out. Starting tonight at Yankee Stadium, the Rangers play their next 13 games against baseball’s best teams – New York, the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays and Los Angeles Dodgers. Each of those teams is at least five games above…
From time to time I’ve been known to construct a Top 10 list. But this one, I’ve got to tear apart. You’re telling me there’s a list of the Top 10 All-Time greatest Dallas Cowboys and Jerry Jones isn’t on it? Altogether now: Bull. Shit. If NFL Network is merely…
Two words sure to get the month off to a yip-uh-dee-doo-dah start: Free. Tickets. I have in my slimy lil’ hands four (4) tickets to any Grand Prairie AirHogs game this week. They host the hated Fort Worth Cats Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and, if I’m not mistaken, Saturday is Fireworks…
Since two girlfriends = one problem, the Dallas Stars have abruptly ended their dual general managers experiement. Out: Brett Hull/Les Jackson. In: Joe Nieuwendyk. Strange as it is to be talking hockey in June – unless, of course, you live in Detroit – the fact that owner Tom Hicks tried a…
The Cowboys unveiled their humongous new home in Arlington this week, with owner Jerry Jones delivering a keynote address about how the $1.15 billion stadium is a sign for struggling Americans that times will get better.Not sure how much of that stadium cost was invested in pyrotechnics, skydivers or marching…
Rick Ericson at The LeMaster Group forwards along the latest in a short line of Official Tom Hicks Media Releases — though, as you’re no doubt aware, this is by far the most interesting one yet. Because as the owner of the Texas Rangers told Randy Galloway yesterday, yup, he’s…
I’ve hinted at this name a couple of times in the wake of Tom Hicks defaulting on a loan, selling Mesquite Rodeo and generally looking for a bailout. But now let’s blurt it out unequivocally: David McDavid is interested in buying controlling interest of the Texas Rangers. “I have the ability and I have…
More scenes from yesterday’s Cowboys Stadium ribbon-cutting, including this debonair turn by Mayor TomLeppert, who cruised the VIP section — you know, around Arlington mayor Robert Cluck’s front-row seat — before moseying to the back of the crowd.Not sure if party guru Steve Kemble was behind this over-the-top affair, but…
Sure the field isn’t as strong as this week’s Colonial and its reputation in PGA Tour circles is crumbling, but from what I witnessed last week the HP Byron Nelson Classic is alive, well and oblivious to any economic downturn or reluctance to party hearty. Thanks to The Pavilion, of course…
Before hundreds of Cowboys greats, fans and local politicians, Jerry Jones stood and opined on his hopes that the huge new stadium behind him would be a beacon of hope to our country in its hour of greatest need.”We could never have imagined five years ago that we would be…
I’m all for lending a helping hand to paralyzed Dallas Cowboys’ scouting staffer Rich Behm. Pemieres. Galas. Fundraisers. Auctions. Columns. You name it. But I dunno, something about putting Tony Romo’s health at risk just doesn’t sit right. Tonight at 7 at Hebron High School a team of old Cowboys will play a…
Overheard at last week’s HP Byron Nelson Classic: Jesus effin’ Christ, didja see those? In other words, screw Tiger Woods. You, I and the tipsy woman with the low-cut top, high-rise bottom and oscillating morals know the truth: As long as it has The Pavilion, The Nelson doesn’t need Tiger…
If you’re a loyal Sportatorium reader, chances are you aren’t hot enough to be a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader. (But who knows, send me a photo and I’ll be the judge.) But I bet some of you aren’t even smart enough. Surprise, it’s not as easy as it looks. (Check out…
A Friend of Unfair Park wants to make sure we know that Ellis Short — co-founder of Dallas-based Lone Star Funds, and a bigwig at locally based asset management company Kitano Capital — is no longer partial owner of the Premier League’s Sunderland club (otherwise known as The Black Cats)…
In the end, soon-to-be former Dallas Cowboy Greg Ellis is so much Michael Finley and Michael Young: A great leader and good player buried in a shitty era. Except that – with his annual bitching about this or that – Ellis may have tarnished his ultimate legacy. Considering the 33-year-old…
Now playing first base for your Texas Rangers … Ryan Howard. Okay, would you settle for Rob Deer? Chris Davis continued his amazingly dichotomous season last night with two home runs and, you guessed it, two more strikeouts. Dr. Jeykll: Davis leads the Rangers with 12 homers. Mr. Hyde: Davis leads…
In news that should shock no one, Pacman Jones is a little punk. Still. As if we needed a reminder, the former Cowboy showed up on Spike TV’s Pros vs. Joes last week and absolutely embarrassed himself. I know the show encourages players to enhance their personality and engage in…
Fired up after another day of Byron Nelson Championship golf, sporting fans flocked to the pavilion tent Saturday afternoon, lured in by the music, beer and margaritas.Pretty sure that white polos and visors were never meant to spend this much time out on the dance floor, but it was a…
Update: Check out more photos in our slide show from the tryouts.It was easy to spot Morgan Willey’s family in the Gaylord Texan’s courtyard Saturday afternoon, in their matching white T-shirts with blue Cowboys stars. Airbrushed onto the back of each shirt was Morgan’s name and their relation to her…
Jerry Jones invited his friends in the media out to the Cowboys’ new digs in Arlington yesterday, to show off the enormous new video board that’ll hang 90 feet over the field (just 90 feet!).On the way out to check out the screen, we got to snap some photos inside…
A bit of a sportsy morning, sure, but it’s hard to resist pointing out this lengthy New York Times sneak peek at Your SMU Mustangs, which are ranked No. 102 on The Quad blog’s countdown to the top college team in the country pre-season. Last year, The Quad aimed a…
