MB III / Hello Newman

Good news. Marion Barber and Terrance Newman have been re-signed with the Cowboys until 2014. Read.

P.S., clap for the Stars. Great run during the playoffs. Yeah, and I had my 30th birthday last Sunday. Such an old bastard.

Game On!

Game 1 starts tonight between the Wings and the Stars in Detroit. This series really could go either way. Here's hoping momentum is still up for the Stars. If it isn't, it's going to be a long, beatdown of a series. Go Stars!

I write music very similar to John Mayer.

Western Conference Finals Preview - SB-12 Style

Exerpt from the blog's own SB-12:


"The Stars have defeated the San Jose Sharks in the Western Conference semi's in an epic, four overtime game that measured as the eighth longest in NHL history. The fact is that the Stars have dispatched the Stanley Cup champs and a team favored to win the Stanley Cup this year. Where to now? It's on to Detroit for a series with the evil empire of the NHL , the Red Wings.

The Stars and Marty Turco have been the team to talk about this post season with their mostly disciplined play and timely scoring across the roster. The Stars will need the momentum of the previous two series to have a hope of breaking through to the Stanley Cup finals. We all know the troubles and the proverbial hex that the Red Wings have had on the Stars, post 2000. Although this troubles me, I can see the Stars taking this series if they show up and play their game.

If "Captain Clutch", Brendan Morrow, and his line can set a tone in their first shift, I think it will bode well for a great, competitive series. The Stars are deep and so are the Red Wings with phenoms Datsyuk and Zetterburg, and the blue liners of Schneider, Lidstrom, and the ageless Chelios. The Stars won't necessarily have to shut down the Red Wings' skill players, but they will have to answer with offense and key saves from Turco.

Game 1 this Thursday will be an important game to win if the Stars hope to move on. The past two series have featured the Stars as underdogs, and by the time they got back to home ice, the series' were already 2-0 Stars. A split in the first two games at Detroit is a must. Turco has turned a huge corner this year dispatching the playoff demons of the past with unbelievable stops on world class talent. Turco also has a regular season shutout against the Wings, and hopefully momentum from that win can spark a great series performance.

It's not too late to hop on the hockey band wagon folks. The Stars are something to watch considering the early exits of all Dallas based teams lately. A recent report of the four overtime win showed the highest rating in a long, long, time for a playoff game. This team has the right ingredients and focus to make it to the Cup."


As always, thanks SB-12!

Gay much?
