Hola Texas

On November 21, 2015 Saul "Canelo" Alvarez defeated Miguel Cotto. The fight was touted as another episode in the rivalry between Mexican and Puerto-Rican boxing.

Monday Night Football is approaching and with the Washington Redskins and the Dallas Cowboys having together combined 8 wins this season and still both in the hunt for the NFC division title - Monday night’s match should be interesting.

Cowboy nation was excited and hopeful from our match this weekend against the Miami Dolphins. In our first possession we saw a quick three and out under strenuous weather conditions.

He is the first Latino elected into the NFL Hall of Fame.  He is the classic role model.  To quote from his biography:

With Ranger ace Yu Darvish out and Derek Holland coming of an injury, local boy Yovani Gallardo may need to become the Ranger’s number 1 ace

Antonio Ramiro Romo, AKA Tony Romo, ended the day with a 138.8 QB rating best of the season throwing for 246 yards and 3 touchdowns.

Tony engineered a come from behind win with about 3 minutes left that if season progresses the way it looks like now we may start referring to it as the Drive.

Joe Ponce Junior remembers how he first got involved in the sport of boxing, "it wasn't a pleasant experience.

As I write this I’m witnessing one of the biggest collapses in Cowboy history. The score at halftime was Cowboys up 26-3. 

With the current bankruptcy of talent in Mexican boxing it's inevitable that our memories turn back to golden times, to the 1950s when all kinds of legends walked amongst us. If you want to know who Jose Becerra was, listen to the Mariachi corrido composed in his honor by the immortal Jose Alfredo Jimenez: 

The two brothers Juan Manuel Gomez and Marcos Gomez would have been at home in ancient Sparta or in the elite Aztec warrior class, they are no ordinary kids.

his season reminds me of the 1993 Movie Groundhog Day, when Bill Murray playing the role of a TV reporter, would relive Groundhog Day over and over again.

Can we possibly believe that the Cowboys will turn it around given that Mr. Romo is “washed up”.  Some would like to have in the media circles that he’s an overpaid mediocre quarterback, yet looking at statistics, he is anything but. 

The 2013 season is again full of hope for our Cowboys. With a new defensive coordinator joining head coach Jason Garret, and Garret no longer calling the plays, we have reasons to be optimistic. 

It’s been almost four years since I last played golf — cuatro años, gente — and not because I suddenly became smart.

By A. Govea No, it wasn’t the firing of the G.M. (Jerry Jones). It was—surprise, surprise—exactly what we all expected: the firing of Matt Eberflus. Under Matt, the Cowboys’ defense was the worst in the league, giving up a franchise‑record 511 points this season. Pero, the person many of us really want to go is J.J. After all, he’s the one who hired Eberflus, even though it was reported that head coach Brian Schottenheimer was in full agreement. . And if you believe that, the

If you are a Texas High Schooler in the Fall the prospect of Friday Night Lights Football games is a given. This is such a natural occurrence for so many, that the idea of a high school career without the possibility of watching your team throw the pigskin around home or away seems unfathomable. Yet, for the second smallest school in Texas this has been the case year after year after year.   By Evalice Arguello  The athletics program in Marathon is alive and well, there is no

I am not about to claim to be a Texas Ranger Super Fan! The truth is, just like basketball, the season is too long to hold my attention. The truth is, for me, it’s more like, “Wake me up if they make the playoffs.” I’m like Hall of Fame Laker ‘Jabber,’ who was accused of only hustling in the playoffs. Not to compare myself to Jabber, but my comparison to basketball skills would be closer to Stanley from The Office. All that said, I, like most in North Texas, have suddenly dev
