I have a confession to make...

I haven't always been the biggest of sports fans. Let me rephrase that, it's not that I'm not a sports fan, I just don't follow sports as closely as some people, particularly football. But I think that's all about to change. What a nail-biter on Monday! And just like that, a love afair with the Dallas Cowboys was born. Yes, I'm from Texas. Yes, I've always claimed to be a Cowboys fan, but Monday's game may have been the line in the sand, taking me from I'm-from-Texas-therefore-I'm-a-Cowboys-fan kinda gal to jersey-wearing, tailgating, bring-it-on Patriots fan.
In case you haven't heard, tickets aren't exactly cheap, not to mention, hard to come by. Cowboys gear is flying off the shelves. And fans are doing what they do best...get revved up for the game. Some of you may be thinking, this woman's jumping in mid-stream and riding the wave of Cowboy fever. Maybe so. And it's a darn good ride so far. Can't wait for Sunday.
Go Cowboys!

Cool Natalie! That's the spirit. Once you see a great football game, it gets into your system and you love it for life.

My love for football is generally reserved for the college game (Geaux LSU! Talk about nail-biters, LSU-Florida was just that). But I've always been a Cowboys fan, good season or bad season.

Natalie, thats great that you have found a team to rute for. Sadly the gear flying off the shelf will be packed back into a box or droor before the season is over and the fans will want the coaches head on a platter. But have fun learning the sport. Good day ma'am.

Would you be such a fan if the Cowboys were not that good? How about baseball, do you like the Rangers? If the Rangers were in the playoffs would be in Arlington at the games?
I guess it really does not matter because the Rangers are so far from being good. I'd like them to do well, maybe one day. Anyway, good for you that you support the Cowboys.

Thanks for the encouragement everyone. I guess you could say I'm just starting to have an apprecition for sports. Would I like the Cowboys if they weren't doing well? (Sunday's game aside) Absolutely. Is it more fun if they're winning? Absolutely.
By the way, I attribute my lackluster history following sports to several things. For one...my mom raised a girly girl....ballet lessons starting at 3, charm classes (not that it shows), etc.
Second, growing up there weren't many men around me watching football. Odd, I know, but that's how it was.
So long story short, I'm finally learning and loving it!

Hello Everyone. I have the honor of co-anchoring the weekend news with Richard Ray and I report three days a week. I truly love what I do and I think this is a wonderful opportunity for us to get to know each other better. A couple of factoids about me...Dancing is a passion of mine, right next to eating good food, traveling and spending time with my family.
