I still don't understand this whole scenario. If Bland had fought against injustice and done something worthwhile to better the cause for African Americans, I could understand it. But having a bad attitude, assaulting a police officer, and then killing herself just doesn't seem to fit that criteria. Even for the people who are delusional and don't think she brought all of this onto herself, and isn't to blame for ASSAULTING A POLICE OFFICER AND THEN KILLING HERSELF, I still don't understand their justification for honoring her with a street named after her. Lumping people like her and Michael Brown (who got a statue in Ferguson) into the same group as people such as Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks is an affront to those great heroes of the Civil Rights Movement who actually did positive things to better their people's situation.

That's what made this series against oakland so huge for the rangers. Even if we only take 1 of 3, we still leave houston with a 2.5 game lead and a magic number of 5 with 5 or 6 games left to play.

The rangers picked up a big win to complete a sweep of the A's today. They extended their lead in the division to 3.5 games, and dropped their magic number to 7. If they can take two of three from the stros this weekend they'll just about wrap things up.

i hope they can show some sense and change it back.

I'm just thankful it's not tebow.

The defense will have to win some games, no doubt, but one of the greatest defensive seasons ever? They have a pretty soft schedule. Of the 8 games Romo is projected to miss, Dallas will have a realistic shot in 6 of them (and the way seattle looks right now, maybe a shot in 7). Now, do i think they'll go 6-2? No. But they should have a chance in 6 games, and 4-4 (or even 3-5) could very well be enough to give us a good shot of making a run to the playoffs once Tony Fing Football comes back.

I made my Orton comment without reading your Orton comment. Great minds, I guess

they're working out Christian Ponder, Matt Flynn, Josh Johnson, and McLeod Bethel-Thompson today. I hope Flynn wins out. He's done some stuff once or twice behind a good O-line that lead me to believe he might could do a little something until Romo gets back, assuming that Weeden doesn't have much success for us. I'd KILL to have Kyle Orton right now, and it makes me sick to my stomach to say that.

I'll start rooting for the eagles.

Romo has a broken collarbone

That was a bogus call for 15 yards. Boys better figure out a way to win this one. Romo is gonna be out for awhile. Gotta pick up a win while we have the chance

Sure wish we had those 15 seconds we wasted back

Wow, we wasted at least one shot at the endzone there. Better make this one count

I can't figure out if we miss demarco more or if he misses us more. This has been a sorry game. But I've got no issue if we can win ugly.

What a win!

Even with giving up this drive at the end of the half, the horns are looking pretty good.

Ranked SEC school Missouri thoroughly dominating American Athletic Conference powerhouse UCONN 9-6 in the 4th quarter. SEC! SEC! SEC!

the hunt we got drawn on this year is probably the most popular in the state. We had a group of four of us, and had 7 or 8 preference points each, so maybe it does help. i know somewhere around 4500 put in for it a year, with 40 drawn.

2 of 3 is good enough this series.

Gotta feel bad for Charles, but it won me my pickem and my streak for the cash.

Anybody watching this?

What a performance by the rangers!

These rangers are looking like the teams that made it to the World Series a couple of years back. Even better, next year we could be really good with most of the offense back, plus darvish, Hamels, and holland leading the pitching staff with several good young arms around to fight for filling out the rotation.

I remember looking at the Astros stats earlier in year when they had their huge lead in the standings, and just about everyone except for Altuve was batting .230 or lower. I didn't think they could sustain their lead hitting like that, and it's finally coming back to bite them. That being said, they're still very much in this race, and they're ahead of schedule. It was supposed to be another year or two before they were going to be in pennant races. Astros fans have a lot to look forward to over the next several years with the offensive core and pitching staff that they've put together.

Rangers making keuchel look like he came into the game with the worst ERA in the AL rather than the best.
