Baseball, America’s Pastime. San Antonio has the Spurs, that’s it for Professional sports. Some people want to bring an NFL team to San Antonio, but not me. Most people I know here in South Texas are Cowboys’ Fans. Good luck trying to get them to convert to some other NFL team. Not to mention that getting an NFL team here is a difficult task. The Alamodome is getting old, the city can’t really afford to build another football oriented stadium. I think the city of San Antonio would be better served by bringing in MLB.
We already have Wolff Stadium where the Missions play. Building a baseball stadium seems like it would be cheaper, maybe not though. But nevertheless, we don’t have much of a baseball presence here in the city. We do have the Missions, but come on, they are a AA team. Put an MLB team at Wolff Stadium, and you’ll sell it out. If not, build a new stadium. There is plenty of room in this city.
Even if the city doesn’t get an MLB team, we still have the Spurs. But how nice it would be to have something other than Double-A baseball. NFL is a maybe, but I’d rather have an MLB team to cheer for. Afterall, baseball is America’s Pastime.
The new season is still a little over a month away. But I’m ready for it so begin right this second! The Spurs have added a few key players. And I think they will benefit the team in a significant way. So it’s going to be an exciting season of basketball. Maybe this season will be another special season to remember. I’m looking forward to sitting in my chair at home watching the game on my HDTV, ready to jump out of my seat on every bad call and every spectacular play. “Ginobli takes the rock at the top of the key, pauses, drives through the lane…oh he’s fouled on the play…it falls, and one. Manu Ginobli is fouled on the play but he makes the basket.”. Read more…
Tony Parker, 2007 NBA Finals MVP, NBA All-Star 2006, 2007, 2009, and three time NBA Champion. He is only 27, yet he has already been in the league since 2001. Tony began his basketball career in France playing for French amateur teams. In 1999 he joined up with the pro French team Paris Basket Racing. Two years later he entered the 2001 NBA draft.

Plaxico Burress was a great football player. He was NOT a great gun owner. He didn’t even have his gun in a holster. So it slipped down his pants and went off. So the safety must have been off as well. Not to mention he had one in the chamber. What a loser. Read more…
A new season of basketball is almost upon us. For those of us in the great city of San Antonio, that means a new quest for the Larry O’Brien trophy. The front office has upgraded the roster of a Spurs team that has been showing its age of late. Richard Jefferson, Theo Ratliff, and DeJuan Blair are the notable additions that should put a spark in the lineup. Read more…
