Why Haven't the #DallasCowboys Locked Down Dak? Sep 04, 2024

Show notes

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is free and clear after this season, and the line of teams wanting to sign him will form to the left. So why haven't Jerry Jones and the Cowboys re-signed thin to a long-term deal?

Can the #DallasCowboys Repeat as #NFCEast Champions? Sep 02, 2024

Show notes

No team has repeated as NFC East champions since the 2003-2004 Philadelphia Eagles, who also won the previous three division titles. Can the #Cowboys find a way to end that streak? Norm discusses the possibility and why they can, but more realistically, why they won't.

The Curiosity of the Annual 'Midnight Sun' Baseball Game Aug 29, 2024

Show notes

On June 21, 2024 the Alaska Goldpanners will host the 119th Midnight Sun Baseball Game vs. the Seattle Studs. The “High Noon at Midnight” classic is played entirely without the use of artificial light.

The Midnight Sun Game is a Fairbanks tradition that dates back to 1906 as a bar bet between the Eagle’s Club and the California Bar, led by Eddie Stroecker, “Father of the Midnight Sun Game."

Though the game is played through the hour of midnight, artificial lights are never used — and have never been used in the history of the event.

#DallasCowboys & CeeDee Lamb: What Took So Long? Aug 28, 2024

Show notes

The Dallas Cowboys finally took care of wide receiver CeeDee Lamb on Monday. The new deal is a 4-year, $136M deal that comes in at $34M per year for the 2020 first-round pick. Notably, the deal includes a $38M signing bonus which is the largest ever for non-quarterback.
