You heard it here first: the Rangers can win it all.
This season.
This year.
They have the players, the organization to support the team, the attitude and better yet the gumption and apparent team chemistry to get done what needs to get done to win the World Series. The only real obstacle will be to win a play-off series, which they have never done.
I will provide a detailed follow-up this weekend, but for now just drink the Kool-aid and jump on the band wagon. The coolers are bottomless and the wagon is big

The Stars are in a rut. And for sale, apparently.
The Mavs kept Dirk. And got rid of Dampier (finally!)
The Rangers are in first place! And also for sale. Let’s just leave it at that.
The Cowboys? Hope springs eternal, as players and coaches begin filtering in to San Antonio this week, with training camp beginning Saturday.
Here are a few things to look for as camp progresses:
Kicker: is Buehler ready to handle all the duties? Or will a second leg be brought in?

I’m all geeked up after the month-long free agency debates. As I try to calm down and re-enter the blogosphere, let’s go on the record with our estimation and, in some ways, prediction, of the top five players by position.
Keep in mind that this isn’t a comparison of peak performance versus peak performance. Steve Nash was league MVP two years in a row, and during that time, no one could touch him. But these rankings take into consideration the season that just ended and predict the season to come (2010-2011).
As we await LeBron’s decision, let’s take a quick look at the names that came out of the 2003 NBA Draft. You tell me if you think there’s ever been a better draft year.
- LeBron James
- Darko Milicic
- Carmelo Anthony
- Chris Bosh
- Dwayne Wade
- Chris Kaman
- Kirk Hinrich
- T. J. Ford
That’s just the top 8. Moving down the list we also have these gems:
- David West
- Sasha Pavlovic
- Boris Diaw
- Leandro Barbosa
- Josh Howard
- Luke Walton
- Mo Williams
- Kyle Korver

It’s time we played the song we’ve all come to know and love just one more time. I won’t lie – the BEST deal would have been LeBron and Bosh to the Bulls. But that isn’t happening, so why not come to Dallas? Best big market city with a chance to win and trade assets to spare.
LeBron, if you’re reading this, and I know you are (he’s a pretty big DPS fan), do me a favor: click play and sing along with me. Just. One. More. Time.

ESPN’s Chris Broussard broke the news this morning that Chris Bosh will be teaming up with Dwayne Wade this fall in Miami. It’s unofficial, of course, but when ESPN reports with this much confidence, it’s all but guaranteed. And if Wade and Bosh truly are joining forces, the Summer of LeBron is a total bust.
There were only seven scenarios in which this year’s free agency hype wouldn’t disappoint. Let’s take a look at each scenario and why they’d make for more excitement than what’s actually happening.

If ESPN Is On Target, The Summer of LeBron Is a Bust
