    Back when they removed a statue of Robert E. Lee in Dallas’ Turtle Creek Park last September, it seemed to be fair game on editing out historical figures because of the issue of slavery in their past. This included Jefferson Davis and other historical male figures of the Confederacy but also limped in George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson-- All because of them owing slaves during a period in history when slavery, for better or worse, was legal and a reality. Thusly, because certain folks in the Democrat Party in this enlightened age of political correctness and their willing cohorts...

    Ya know, I'm a kind'a half full guy and while me and my Cowboys were getting our guts ripped out by big & Aaron's Boys, the powers that be appear to decree that I have to use the "NFL LIVE THREAD" title when posting-- So, in for a penny... in for a pound. First, the disclaimer: OUR WAY OR NO WAY! Jumping off the cliff with the Left-- How far will you fall?

    If you think there is not evil alive and well in this world, then consider what two recent events prove. There were still-warm dead bodies on the ground in Las Vegas when the Left began claiming that is was only correct to place the fault and blame on the National Rifle Association and Trump supporters for not supporting their version of Gun Control to totally deny all US citizens the right to even own any 'assault weapons' of the Left's choosing. Of course, the Left's considers that the 'assault weapon' to cause evil, not the person who fired it in...

    The Orville Episode 4 Review: If the Stars Should Appear The Orville runs into a massive ship adrift in space, and the story, although familiar in some ways, unfolds impressively. [This "The Orville" review contains spoilers] The Orville Season 1 Episode 4 You’d think that after many seasons and spinoffs of Star Trek, we’d have seen an episode like this one, but The Orville is proving that it can break new ground even as it treads familiar territory. Encountering a society blinded by self-imposed ignorance is nothing new, of course, but the manner in which this show presents its encounters...

    Back in the 1930s and 1940s, film producer Samuel Goldwyn was renown for his quotes such as "If you want to send a message, call Western Union." And that was pretty much how it was in films, the coming television industry and in sports. There was politics and there was entertainment. Sadly, it is that no more-- I am a Baby Boomer, a term seldom heard these days as we are all getting into our 70 years of age, a demographic advertisers ignore as if we are already dead and gone. The Left started putting more and more of their...

    Perhaps no athlete in sports is subject to more scrutiny than an NFL quarterback. The fortunes of a franchise either rise or fall based largely on who is receiving the snaps from center. We identified the top all-time quarterbacks for every NFL team and asked our NFL Nation beat reporters -- and you, the fans -- to help us determine each signal-caller's place in franchise history.

  • Game-by-game predictions for the 2017 schedule: Will the Cowboys' NFC East reign continue?

    06/26/2017 5:11:13 PM PDT · by Bender2 · 23 replies
    By Jon Machota , Staff Writer Contact Jon Machota on Twitter: @jonmachota I predicted the outcome for every Cowboys game after the 2017 NFL regular-season schedule was released in April. At the time, I had Dallas going 10-6, the same record I predicted in 2016. One difference is that I had the Cowboys winning the division last year. At first glance, I had them finishing second this year to the New York Giants, but earning a wild card spot. Having been able to see what they did in the draft and watch offseason practices, I've gone back through my projections....
