Dismember the Alamo 2023!

 

This is an annual tradition.  Yesterday was one of my favorite days of the year.  I get to sit in my favorite, sold-out movie theater with my best friend and watch five unannounced horror movies.  There was a trick and quite a few treats at Dismember the Alamo 2023.  Here is what we watched:

Texas Rangers Up 2-0 in the ALCS!

 

I used to write about baseball all the time here but gave it up for some reason a long time ago.  Anyway, I am a big Rangers fan since I discovered my love for the great game when I was about 12 years old and started collecting baseball cards.  I live in Texas so I made the Rangers my team.  The Rangers went with the "tank" plan a few years ago like many teams to rebuild themselves up back to win.  Put in a few years of low payrolls, misery, and lose a lot of games and you get rewarded with high draft picks.  If you make the right picks and start spending on free agents you can have your time winning again in a short time period.  The Rangers made the right picks with Josh Jung and Evan Carter and started spending on free agents last year bringing in Marcus Simien and Corey Seager.  And this year they finally scored an ace pitcher in Jacob deGrom only to lose him to injury for at least a year after only six starts.  

The Rangers lead their division most of the season until the final day when they had to settle for a wild card spot due to a tie breaker to the DisAstros.  These Rangers are peeking a little earlier than I predicted but I will take it and they have been undefeated in the playoffs so far.  A mid season trade brought veteran Max Scherzer here in July and he was doing great until an injury sidelined him a month ago.  Well Mad Max is back on the roster and will be starting in game 3 tonight.  I am sure they have a tandem pitcher already in mind for tonight as Scherzer is said to be on a pitch count of around 70. Let's hope the offense stays on a roll and we can get ahead 3-0.  Go Rangers!

Pancake Saturday

 

On Saturdays I usually serve up pancakes for breakfast and then reflect on what happened this past week.  Think of it like my scatter shooting for the week.  Here is what’s in the fall edition:

-It’s Fall and it is my favorite time of the year.  The temps go down into the 90s, football is back, and it is Halloween season.

-Aaron Rodgers going down is not what the Jets planned and you need a back-up QB in the NFL to survive.  Better luck next year.

-The Texas Rangers are in the playoffs for the first time since 2016 and this makes my baseball heart happy.  Best of all we will get to see the games on TV.  MLB needs to get rid of their caveman black out policy so fans can actually watch their favorite teams on TV again.  Go Rangers!

-Also around here it’s Texas/OU weekend and the Cowboys play the 49ers.  Don’t worry, I will still be watching plenty of horror movies this weekend too!

-The rumor is Target is not going to be carrying blu rays and DVDs anymore.  Not much reason to go there anymore.

Have a good weekend!
