This is a huge weekend for football fans. It's opening weekend for the NFL (after last night's kickoff between the Packers and Seahawks), there are big college games already and it's only the second week of the season, and just cuz!  Football fans don't need huge games to sit in the recliner and enjoy a bucket of wings.  We just love football.

In Major League Baseball, the Texas Rangers and LA Dodgers have made headlines over the past couple of seasons for their enormous hot dogs. Over-the-top grub is almost as much a part of the game now as the ball is!  The dogs and piles of nachos are so big they have to be shared.  Unless you're really hungry and brave. Have you heard what the Green Bay Packers are doing now?

If you bought any Tony Romo jerseys over the past year, you may have helped propel the Dallas Cowboys to another year of being the NFL's most valuable franchise. And there's a huge gap between those extremely lucrative Dallas Cowboys and the league's least valuable team.

Anyone else ready for the NFL season to start?  Every time our favorite teams win a preseason game we're convinced our team is great and in good shape for the regular season.  If they lose a preseason game we say, "oh well, it's just the preseason!" The games don't count, but it is fun to watch guys try to make the team and catch a glimpse of the team as it takes shape. There is one expe

Fans of the Houston Texans started out this NFL season started out feeling pretty optimistic after the team won its first two games, but then the rest of the season happened.  Fans were confident right up until the point that they weren't anymore!

Dez Bryant is a former Lufkin Panther who went on to play college football at Oklahoma State, and has made his NFL career with the Dallas Cowboys. And now Bryant has joined an elite group of players who will play in the league all-star game on January 26th, just ahead of the Super Bowl on February 2nd.

Cowboys' fans are happy today!  Dallas managed a 36-31 win over the Giants on Sunday Night Football. The Texans play in the late game of tonight's Monday Night Football double header.  It's Texans and Chargers from San Diego.  Houston will win that one, right? The experts say if our teams don't win, we eat more junk food the next day.  So if you gain a lot of weight this football season, your team

If you have Peyton Manning on your Fantasy Football team, nice work!  That guy is unreal with 7 touchdown passes against the Ravens last night.  He has set the bar high for the rest of the signal callers around the NFL. Peyton's little brother, Eli, will try to carve up the Cowboys defense on Sunday Night Football.  Tony Romo will try to quiet the doubters with some TDs and no picks. Oh, and Carri

Another NFL Draft is behind us, and today will be one of those days at work where perhaps the biggest football fans spend a little water cooler time breaking down the hits and misses. It's fun to rip to shreds the hopes and dreams of the newest NFL players, by labeling them "bust" right from the start isn't it?  I kid!  But Dallas Cowboy fans especially, seem to heartily enjoy picking ap

Ahead of Sunday's big football game, New York University PhD candidate, Sean Taylor, has published a new map based on Facebook figures that show a surprising social and geographical breakdown of NFL fans.  The map is color-coded to show which states love which teams.  Not so surprising, is the fact that Texas is predominantly blue and loves its Cowboys.   There is a pocket of red around Houston th

If you're a football fan, you know that the Houston Texans had a shot at the #1 seed in the playoffs, which would have given them a week off to rest and await their next opponent. But they lost to the Colts yesterday, and the cards fell in a way that drops them to the #3 seed, meaning they have to play this weekend. And oh, those Cowboys...what happened this season. Cowboy fans are in a funk tod

Wives sometimes complain that husbands sink into a terrible funk after a Dallas Cowboys loss. They don’t talk much, they’re grumpy, they snap and get sassy when asked a simple question…. Goodness. The Cowboys lose and it can take a family a day or two to get back to normal. May be a week, until the ‘Boys can get on the field and win again. Did you hear Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was locked out of t
