The History of Football

Tailgating, ice cold beer, hot dogs grilling, hamburgers cooking, Sunday afternoons at the stadium, friendly rivalry between friends, family, and co-workers, and hot cheerleaders only means one thing...football season is here. Football has emerged from a game that used to kill players which not many people watched to a game that has a following of millions of fans, millions of television sets turned in to various games specific to the favorite National Football League (NFL) team that is playing that weekend and hundreds of thousands of dollars spend on tickets, merchandise, and stadium foods every year. Not only that, but millions of children every year find a new role model to idolize in football players.

Not many fans know the history of the game of football, however short it is. The first game that was played by a college or university in America was on November 6, 1869 between the universities of Rutgers and Princeton. Each team had 20 players on the field at one time, which, as any modern day fan knows, are too many players. This sort of play resembled more of a Rugby game than what is known today as a football game. The rules for college football play were established in 1873 and limited the number of players on the field to 15 instead of 20. A major concern, and a big reason for the lowering of players on the field, was the safety of the players and this concern has not ended today.

Walter Camp, who was a big proponent of the game of football, only wanted to have 11 players on the field at one time. Eventually, he got his way and the players were slimmed down to 11. Camp was instrumental in changing many things about football, so that it looks like the game that we play today. He began a system of counting the number of tries it took a team to move the ball 5 yards. These, he called downs and limited the team's try to 3 downs per 5 yards. If they did not move the ball 5 yards within the allotted downs, the other team got the ball. This was called a turnover. This changed as well, over time. The yardage that had to be met was changed to 10 yards in 1906. The next change to happen was in 1912 when the 4th down was added to give the players a little more time to get those ten yards in somehow. This is still in play today.

This sport was extremely rough in its beginnings, unlike now, when a player or two may die in one year of professional play. In one year of college play, there were 180 injuries serious enough to warrant a doctor's visit and 18 dead players. Because of these injuries and deaths, the game was shortened to 60 minutes of play instead of the original 70. The rules were changes to eliminate purposeful rough play and a buffer zone was created between the teams to keep them separated.

Paw Wash

The cheerleaders for the NFL's New England Patriots teamed up with local dog groomers for a "Paw Wash" which raised money to help homeless animals in the Boston area. Gary Hamilton reports.

Do You Really Want First Row Chiefs Tickets?

First row Chiefs tickets on the lower level of Arrowhead Stadium! It sounds like any football fan's dream come true. While first row seats are a real treat, they're not always the right choice for everyone. Let's look at some of the pros and cons of watching KC football from Row One.

The Pros of Front Row Chiefs Tickets

There are a few very attractive aspects of sitting right on the field.

First, the pre-game becomes a much different experience. Warm-ups and festivities take on a whole new dimension when they unfold right in front of you.

Second, it's an opportunity to be in the eye of a hurricane. Arrowhead Stadium is well-known as the NFL's loudest venue and there's no better way to soak in that great atmosphere than by sitting on the lowest row of the lower bowl. You'll really understand why the crowd is the defense's twelfth man!

Third, it provides you with a one-of-a-kind opportunity to experience the intensity and athleticism of NFL football. You'll hear the grunts, groans, cracking pads and yells of the players. You really feel like part of the action when you're in the first row.

Fourth, the lowest row is traditionally associated with VIPs and high rollers. It can be an opportunity to experience that bigshot status and to rub elbows with others who are doing the same.

Fifth, if you've always wanted to get a good look at those Chiefs cheerleaders, there's no better place on earth!

The Cons of Front Row Chiefs Tickets

While it's hard to outweigh the positives of first row seats, there are a few things you should know.

First, if you're on the far end of the field, you will not have the greatest view of the opposite end. The lower row, obviously, trades off with maintaining a larger perspective. The view isn't dramatically compromised and there are Jumbo-trons on both ends to help, but it's something worth considering.

Second, if you're worried about precipitation, you might be happier with lower level seats that are up higher than the thirtieth row. Those can provide you with cover, as the Club level overhangs the lower bowl. When you're right on the field, you're fully exposed to the elements!

Overall, first row Chiefs tickets are a great opportunity to experience NFL football in an entirely different way than most fans. They do have a few drawbacks, but on-balance they are a great option for most fans.

Reebok Freestyle

In 1982, Reebok introduced the Reebok "Freestyle", a woman's athletic shoe designed for aerobic exercise. This new shoe marked a shift in the athletic shoes market towards athletic shoes designed for sports other than jogging (aerobics, basketball, etc.) and towards the female market for sports shoes (before the 1980's jogging was primarily a "man's" hobby). With a price tag of 60 dollars, the Reebok was shockingly expensive at the time. Some people called it the most expensive sports shoe in the world.

The original Freestyle was an Oxford-style (lace-up) shoe made out of white leather. It was adorned simply with the word "Reebok" in light blue lettering and a picture of the British Union Jack flag on the side of the shoe. The original Freestyle was a low top with a yellow gum sole. In the mid 1980's Reebok released the distinctive high-top Freestyles. In addition to laces, these shoes closed with two Velcro straps around the ankle. They were available in bright, funky colors such as pink, orange, green and yellow. Most of the high-top Reeboks were made out of leather but some canvas and mesh versions of the shoe were also released on the market.

Reeboks were a hit among the new female athletic market. The shoe sponsored the Los Angeles Lakers Girls in the 1980s, and the shoes soon became a hit with cheerleading squads and dance teams across the nation. In addition to athletics, the Freestyle quickly became something of a fashion must-have. Cybill Shepherd complemented her black strapless gown with a bright orange pair of Freestyles at the 1985 Emmy's. Punky Brewster started the trend of wearing two different colors of Freestyle (an orange on the left foot and a purple on the right foot, for example) at the same time.

On the 25th anniversary of the release of the Freestyle, Reebok decided to launch a campaign it called "Freestyles Forever". This campaign selected six celebrity women (actors, singers, models, etc.) from six major cities in the world. Ali Yasuda, the first Japanese NFL cheerleader, represented Tokyo; Nikki Beatnik, a popular British DJ, represented London; Yelle, the French singer, represented Paris; Sagarika Chatghe, a Bollywood star from India, represented New Dehli; Bimba Bose, a internationally acclaimed model from Spain, represented Madrid; and actress Sheetal Sheth was the face of Freestyle for New York. The event was designed to look back and celebrate the culturally pertinent history of the Reebok Freestyle shoe.

Coaching Youth Football - Coaches Notebook

Don't take anything for granted about what players know. Tell them everything that could possibly happen on a play, offense or defense. For Example, there position of there feet on a block or if you are talking to the backs, what a linebacker will do. Write everything you know down for the positions you coach; Hits, drills, tricks, knowledge of what could happen on a play. Convey this to each position. Also have a section from discussions on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd down plays according to field position. Have stat people be aware of the same.

- Have a classroom on plays; New plays and special plays.

- Last year coaches and captains have have a Monday night playbook makeup.

- Walk through plays. Make sure offense and defense know as much about the other team as possible.

- Work hard on special team play.

- Defense watch the ball. NO off sides.

- If you are practicing goal line plays, offense or defense, practice at the goal line.

- Repetition.

- Teach during the week so on Sunday they react

Begin every season with the belief that your going to win. Play to win. Winning is expected. When playoff time comes you will be there. No matter what the score or what the situation. Always believe you are going to win. Never think you are going to do anything but win.

Sports Collectible - What You Must Have To Be Cool

Sports collectibles are goodies that every sports lover will want to get their hands on. There are exclusive sports collectible stores around the world where one can feast their eyes on their team gears, foot wear or other apparels worn by then during the match, and also find autographed balls and bats up for sale. Sometimes these memorabilia might be on sale, and other times they could be bought by bidding on the price and if yours is the highest you might win the product. Whatever be the mode of getting hold of these valuables, sports enthusiasts across the world don't mind or think twice about shelling out money over these items. For some it is a must have, and for others its something they add to their collection. As long as one knows their limits and is aware of how much time and money they are spending on these, its safe, else it becomes an addiction which is unhealthy. It would eat up their savings and time leaving them with no income or way to take care of their family.

Autographed footballs, helmets, bats and balls, or even photographs by leading players would be worth a lot, and are available only in limited quantities. So, if one has any hope of grabbing one of these treasured memorabilia, they should touch base with one of the websites that will have stocks. Some of the stores and sites have antique products or those of legendary players we which are considered part of vintage collection. Greeting cards with a player's picture on it, or a autographed picture of Tiger woods, or maybe the shoes used by Ronaldo are all things that would sell instantly. All sports collectibles are available for the public to buy and some are more expensive than others because of their history or maybe because they are the last piece left.

Display cases, and plaques of your favorite team would look beautiful when placed along with other pictures and mementos on the mantle and so people flock towards these stores to buy them. Some have this as a hobby while for others its a passionate part time thing. They would be part of a group or forum where all members are into sports and they each have a huge collection of memorabilia. They might all meet up once in a while to discuss the latest game, the players and also share information where a particular memorabilia might be available or seek others' help while interesting in a piece of jewelery or photo that is available in another town. The sports collectible are a major rage among teenagers, as it forms part of who they are, a reflection of their personalities and they look up to these sports stars and try to impersonate them. For others, these sports collectibles are a way of being in touch with their fondest memories or a match that created a revolution or to look back on a glorious moment involving their favorite teams.

Pro Bowl Packages

The Pro Bowl has a long history that football fans are quite familiar with. In essence the Pro Bowl takes the best players from all teams, and plays an "all-star" game facing off the two main conference in the NFL, which are the NFC and the AFC. The game is normally held after the Super Bowl. The very first Pro Bowl team was selected in 1938, and the game was played in January 1939 in Los Angeles. The game was moved each year to several stadiums around the country, before finding it's home in 1980 at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu. The game was played there for 30 years straight, until last year (2009,) where the game was moved to Miami Florida, at the Sun Life Stadium, which is the home stadium to the AFC team, the Miami Dolphins. Not only was the move unusual, but the NFL also decided to play the game before the Super Bowl rather than after, as had been the tradition since the late 1930's. The move was not a popular one with players, team owners or football fans. One primary concern was that a key player could get injured prior to the Super Bowl, causing many of the best players to sit out of the game entirely.

Football fans love attending the game because events usually stretch out over an entire week, not to mention enjoying the beauty of Hawaii. Many run into their favorite players at hotel bars and pools. If you are interested in attending the Pro Bowl game, there are many packages to choose from, however there are a few keys things to keep in mind.

First of all, consider arriving a few days early if you want to take advantage of the free NFL experience. The NFL Experience offers lots of activities two days prior to the game. There are live performances by popular bands, players signing autographs, NFL cheerleaders, BBQs and lots of places to buy memorabilia.

The next thing to look for is the type of hotel accommodations being include with the package. Is the hotel rated three, four or five stars? How far is the hotel from the stadium, or is their transportation included in your price. Does your room have a view? All are factors that affect the price of the vacation.

The location of your tickets can also have an impact on pricing. Many standard packages come with end zone or upper section tickets. If you want a better view, consider buying a package that includes lower level tickets or perhaps even club level tickets which usually come with added amenities.

There is also a more exclusive event called the NFL pre-game Tailgate Party. Unlike the NFL experience, admission is not free, and can run over $200 pp. Included in the price of admission are plenty of food booths, reserved seating, an open bar that includes beers, soft drinks and wine, appearances by celebrities and popular NFL players, live entertainment and a commemorative gift. The pre-game party is held at Richardson Field right across the street from the stadium. It is a great way to spend time before the game with football fans from all over the country. Only a limited amount of tickets are available for this event, so make sure and book early if you are interested. Some packages build it into their prices, providing a better value than if you bought the tickets separately.

One company is offering a new experience for 2011, called a post-game NFL field experience. This will allow fans to walk on the field after the game and take pictures. It always gives a unique perspective to be on the field versus watching it from the stadium.

As always, make sure you are booking with a reputable company or travel agent. Ask for confirmations in writing before placing a deposit to ensure that everything noted on the website is being included in the final package.

Tips to Purchase NFL Jersey Wholesale

For some it is an easy decision to go into the business as an NFL jersey wholesaler or to add them as stock in a retail store. They are very popular among the sporting youth. NFL games attract hundreds of spectators each supporting one of the teams on the field and parading around in their colors and NFL jerseys emblazoned with the logo of their team. The sport, being very specific to the US has a national following in the country with events being organized regularly and authentic NLF jerseys are in great demand. Buying NFL jerseys wholesale has become an integral part of the business to ensure good quality, well prices stock.

With NLF jerseys authentic is the name of the game. Wearing an authentic NFL jersey is in a way status and also shows a deeper level of support for your team knowing that a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the jersey goes to the team and to the NFL themselves so that they are able to pay for good coaches, hunt for new talent, and employ great looking cheerleaders among other things, which will please the crowd.

NFL jersey wholesalers need to bear this in mind when purchasing from manufacturers as they need to be licensed in order to pay royalties to the NFL. Wholesalers found not complying may earn themselves a reputation for selling replica NFL jerseys and lose a great deal of previously guaranteed business.

For retailers looking forward to purchase NFL jerseys wholesale China has proven to be their best bet. In China not only is the labor cheaper due to lower costs of living but also use cheaper materials in the manufacture of their NFL jerseys. The reason for this is because there are factories dedicated to producing even the small parts that are required for their product in China, so they can be purchased without expensive transportation et cetera.

When selling jerseys manufacturers are able to get their money back quickly with only a small amount of profit. This profit is worth it, since they get a fast return on their money. However, ultimately because in the end they have a greater turnover of products and are able to keep their workers busy, every one is happy around. On the flip side of this coin jersey wholesalers are able to buy larger quantities and make larger profits or keep their prices down so that their customers can enjoy the benefits of wholesale too.

Many wholesalers are simply just that. They purchase in bulk, add a mark-up and send their products out to retailers who take care of the marketing for the products. In much the same way as China has factories that specialize in the manufacture of very specific items so does an NFL jersey wholesaler choose to specialize in buying and resale. They act as distributors to smaller retailers who prefer to have smaller quantities of each product and instead a larger range. When looking forward to purchase NLF jerseys wholesale is your answer.

Skin Rejuvenation Options - Laser Resurfacing and Microdermabrasion

Image : http://www.flickr.com

Want to rejuvenate your skin and banish blemishes but are afraid of going under the knife? Today there is a variety of new alternatives to invasive cosmetic surgery. With great results and no incisions necessary, facial treatments like laser skin resurfacing and microdermabrasion are gaining popularity among men and women.

Laser Skin Resurfacing -

Laser resurfacing can treat a huge array of problems ... removing unsightly scars, spider veins, wrinkles, discoloration, and acne.

The type of laser used will depend on the particular treatment sought, but the basic process uses beams of light to remove the outer dermal. A new, undamaged and blemish-free complexion will be revealed.

Sessions can last anywhere from thirty minutes to two hours, depending on the size of the treatment area and extent of the damage being treated. Most patients will have to make repeat visits for optimal results. It is most often used on the face, but also works well on other common problem areas of the body like the thighs.

Although highly effective and able to treat a wide variety of problems, the recovery period for laser skin resurfacing can be a nuisance. The treated areas will be dressed for a few days and once removed, the area will have to be protected with Vaseline until fully healed ten to twenty days later. Even after twenty days, skin might remain red for anywhere from two to six months afterwards, especially for fair individuals.

Fortunately, the pain level is minimal, usually equivalent to that of mild sunburn with some dryness and peeling. If you're looking for a milder treatment with less downtime, you might consider microdermabrasion.

Microdermabrasion -

During a microdermabrasion treatment an instrument that resembles a wand is massaged over the area, using any one of a variety of materials including zinc oxide or organic particles. The topmost dermal layer is abraded off.

What results is the removal of fine lines, blemishes, mild sun damage, acne, and some discoloration. Afterwards you're left with a new, undamaged layer of skin that can be penetrated more easily by topical moisturizers and creams. Initially the area may be irritable or red, but this usually disappears a few hours afterwards.

Microdermabrasion works best when used fairly regularly. By receiving repeated treatments, deeper dermal flaws might eventually be removed or diminished, and it will promote the process of new cell growth, giving skin a refreshed appearance.

There are also machines and creams that are available for home use. These are effective to some extent, but as you would expect, they are not nearly as powerful as the equipment available in a cosmetic surgeon's office.

Most people aren't born with a flawless complexion, and the effects of time and harmful elements can mark your skin with permanent blemishes. A good skincare regime is paramount in maintaining a healthy glow, but for those imperfections you can't reach with topical lotions and creams, laser resurfacing or microdermabrasion are both winning options.

Lo mejor de Nueva Orleans Part 2

Las aventuras de Tania Rincon y Faisy con las porristas de los Santos de Nueva Orleans

Gogo Boots - A Time Honored Classic

Gogo boots are not just a 60s throw back. The stylish boots have enjoyed something of a rebirth in recent years, with a few updates for modern looks, of course. The term "gogo" is derived from the French "à gogo" which is a modern expression meaning 'abundance' and taken from "la gogue," meaning happiness. The term was first applied to dancers in the mid sixties, but was later applied to the boot style commonly worn by those same dancers.

Characterized by knee high height and low or flat heels, these shoes were favored in the 60's for their accentuating affect on the wearer's legs. Coupled with micro minis, the boots helped to highlight a woman's leg which had previously been covered to below the knee. Gogo boots were also the first incarnation of fashionable boots as opposed to functional boots for riding or working activities. Until the 60's, boots were something women wore to work around the farm or in the city during snow or rain. Now they are everyday footwear.

While white plastic or leather gogo boots were a hit in the United States, a similar trend took hold in England. Black kink boots became popular and were almost exact opposite of the gogo. While stereotypically white, kink boots were black. Gogo boots had low or flat heels and squared toes, kink boots had spiked heels and pointy toes. The two fashion trends helped usher in the boot as everyday footwear that modern women currently enjoy.

Gogo boots inspired many of today's modern boot styles. However, the term gogo is normally only used to describe knee high boots worn with short bottoms such as skirts or shorts. Many of today's knee high fashion boots began from the simple gogo or kink styles. The traditional gogo boot, however, can still be found in modern times. In fact, many NFL cheerleading squads include versions as part of their uniform.

Today's retro fashion trends have brought back the popularity of traditional gogo boots. However, white is no longer the stereotypical color. Browns, blacks, and other earth tone colors are popular, especially coupled with gauchos, denim mini skirts, Capri pants, and some styles of shorts. Today's boots bear a striking resemblance to cropped riding boots common in English riding stables. However, even the traditional white gogo boots have enjoyed something of a comeback, showing on the feet of some of today's top celebrities.

A New Place to Call Home for the Cowboys - Arlington, Texas

The NFL Dallas Cowboys have been at the forefront of the League for more than forty years. They have consistently been a force on the field and are considered to be the most valuable sports franchise in North America. The Cowboys joined the league as an expansion team in 1960 and called the Cotton Bowl home for the following decade. Since 1971 the Dallas Cowboys and Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders have called Texas Stadium, a purpose built stadium, in Irving, Texas, home. All that will change in 2009 when Cowboys football moves to a new stadium in the city of Arlington, Texas. The city of Arlington founded in 1875, was named after General Robert E. Lee's Arlington House, Arlington County, Virginia. In 1876 the railroad arrived and in 1884 the city was incorporated. Thriving as a result of cotton gins and farming, by 1910 Arlington was a city that boasted water, electricity natural gas, a telephone system and a public school system. Prior to World War II the population of Arlington was over four thousand. Post World War II the city underwent a major boom starting in 1954 with the arrival of a General Motors assembly plant. From 1950 through to 1990 the automotive and aerospace development lead to a major population growth in Arlington

Arlington, Texas, located in Tarrant County within the metropolitan area of Dallas-Fort Worth has a population today of over 350,000 and is the seventh largest city in Dallas.

Besides the automotive and aerospace industry, Arlington became home to the Six Flags Over Texas Theme Park in 1961, the oldest park of the Six Flags amusement parks and theme parks chain. Arlington is also home to three post-secondary institutions: the University of Texas at Arlington (the third largest institution of the University of Texas System), the Southeast Campus of Tarrant County College and Arlington Baptist College. Arlington is a sports oriented city. In 1972 the Washington Senators baseball team relocated to Arlington where they play as the Texas Rangers. And, of course, 2009 will mark the Dallas Cowboys move to Arlington and the opening of the Dallas Cowboys' new stadium. As well, like the rest of Texas, Friday night high school football in Arlington is an obsession with five high schools in the city keeping the fans entertained on Friday nights. The future home of the Cowboys in Arlington was cemented in November 2004 when city residents voted to approve a tax increase to fund the $325 million public funding portion of the stadium project. In 2005, the final site for the stadium in Arlington was chosen and in 2006 excavation at the site began. The original cost of the stadium was estimated at $650 million. Today the estimated cost is in excess of $1 billion potentially making it one of the most expensive sports venues ever to be built. The city of Arlington has been prosperous over the year's thanks in large part to its automotive and aerospace industry. The city will no doubt continue to prosper and will no doubt be forever changed in 2009 with the arrival of, arguably its most famous occupants to date, the Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, and all the team's future football card players. Arlington, Texas can now claim a piece of Dallas Cowboys history.

Baseball At Its Best...Los Guerreros de Oaxaca

Where else but in Mexico can you park two blocks away from the ballpark, buy a pair of field level seats beside the dugout, eat a personal size pizza, have a beer, pastry, lollipop and tic-tacs, and be entertained for more than three hours during a warm, breezy evening, all for about $15 USD.
The Mexican baseball season begins each March, with Oaxaca's team (the Guerreros, being one of 16 in this two division league) playing its games at the Lic. Eduardo Vasconcelos stadium, a short walk from downtown. When my wife and I attended our first game ever, we were thoroughly impressed, not without noting some both interesting and amusing differences as compared to attending Skydome (now known as The Rogers Centre) to see the Toronto Blue Jays. I preface my comments by indicating that the league is equivalent to Triple A, meaning that the quality of play is extremely good, with potential and former Major Leaguers on the teams...in 2005 the Guerreros had Felix Jose, former quality batter for the Cardinals in the early 90's.

I attended at the park to buy tickets a couple of days in advance of the scheduled game, wanting to ensure that I got premium seats, only to be told that tickets go on sale at 4 pm, game day. To my surprise, the ticket wicket opened shortly before the hour. My wife asked for a pair of "the best". When she returned to the car, I noticed that the 55 peso tickets did not appear to be in sequence, so I sent her back to inquire, and exchange the seats if necessary. I was right...one seat was a row above the other. Who knew that when you ask to buy a pair of tickets, you should stipulate that you want them beside each other? The attendee gave my wife a hard time, but finally relented and exchanged the seats.

We returned to the park for the 7:30 opening pitch, easily finding a parking space on the street...no $20 charge to park in a lot. But where exactly were our seats? We asked no less than four stadium employees, no one being able to point us to our seats, until finally someone took the effort to direct us appropriately. WOW. Not only field level beside the visitors' (Mexico City) dugout, but covered in the unlikely event of a drizzle, and alongside the bull pen.

The game followed the typical AL format, with designated hitter (Felix Jose for the Guerreros), and the announcer doing the same job as his counterpart in the Majors, not without prefacing each upcoming batter's name and position with an advertisement for one of the numerous sponsors whose presence is up front and center, both on the players' uniforms and across the field walls. The scoreboard provided no surprises, but it took a while to figure out some of the positions of the players by merely seeing the letter designations...no problem with SS, 1B, 2B and 3B. But what about JI, CF and JD? I thought I had it down pat with the Center Fielder, but the other two threw me off. Then the announcer introduced the Right Fielder, the Jardinero Derecho (JD), which literally translates to "Right Gardener". It made sense after a moment since he does tend to the grass in right field...but why is the Center Fielder's position not similarly adapted to the Mexican style of designation? All fell into place in short order, with each player having a number on his jersey, but with VOLKSWAGEN being the only name appearing on the backs.

The ten cheerleaders were a pleasant surprise, doing an admirable job, albeit neither choreographed nor synchronized as well as in the NFL or NBA. However, what a treat to see these young women at the ballpark with a bit of flesh on their bodies, instead of the anorectic look which we have become accustomed to see and regretfully accept north of the border. The music on the audio system was a unique mix of what one finds at MLB and NHL games with the standard "CHARGE" preambles and the like, traditional Oaxacan tunes including the Pinotepa, and well-known American and Canadian numbers by artists such as M.C. Hammer and Creedence Clearwater Revival. The fifth inning cleaning crew did their job, although without the Lone Ranger theme song to egg them on; there was the traditional on-field contest for the kids; and hawkers prevailed upon us to buy raffle tickets.

While I must confess that while baseball is the most boring of the main North American spectator sports (the list in descending order being basketball, hockey, football, soccer and baseball), since the gradual changeover in Major League ballparks to permitting the consumption of alcoholic beverages I've come to enjoy getting out to the game from time to time to chat with a friend or business associate, soak up some rays and fresh air (when the retractable dome in Toronto has been left open), and have a beer and my fill of dogs, doughnuts and deliciously rich ice cream bars. Pigging out Oaxacan style proved to be similarly orgasmic, although not being able to imbibe a mezcalito or three does put a damper on the libido. There was the tempting taco stand a few steps from our seats, in addition to the customary vendors winding their way through the stands. The range of fare includes, naturally Corona, soft drinks, hot tacos by the plastic and foil wrapped plateful, warm personal size boxed Domino's Hawaiian pizza with all the ketchup packages you want, a wide variety of cellophane packaged nuts, seeds and dried fruit colorfully presented on a display card, esquites (piping hot large corn kernels in a Styrofoam cup topped with mayonnaise, chili powder, lime and grated cheese), as well as the typical street corner stand items including gum, chocolates, hard candies and cigarettes.

Perhaps the greatest similarity to attending an MLB game was that the home team lost... just like in Toronto after the two aberrations in the early 90's. While I wouldn't expect that attending a Guerreros game would be on a list of priorities for tourists spending only a week in the city, for both residents and travelers vacationing here for longer stays baseball in Oaxaca provides an entertaining and relaxing way to spend a few hours. The regular season runs through the end of July, with the four playoff series beginning thereafter, running through the beginning of September. You can attend at the stadium to learn more about the promotions including T-Shirt and Cap days, and Mothers Day and Fathers Day.

How to Get a Sports Scholarship

Getting paid to study at college, with the main requirement being that you commit to playing sports as often as possible is the dream of many high school students, and also the dream of many parents who'd otherwise have to spend huge sums of money getting their child educated.

Every college campus has a select few sport stars who sometimes command celebrity status on the playing fields, are popular students and enjoy college without financial pressures or any obligation to earn an especially high GPA. These students are there because they got a sports scholarship.

If you are a talented sports player then it's essential to participate in your high school team. Your sports coach is probably well-connected with talent scouts from colleges who may monitor your practices when looking for suitable candidates for sports scholarships.

Sports scholarships are awarded for all types of sports, not just team sports such as soccer, football and baseball. They are actually surprisingly common but also very competitive. If you are truly an outstanding sports star then you have a huge advantage over most competitors already - but if you have obvious potential it is certainly worthwhile getting extra coaching and training as soon as possible to increase your chances of gaining an award.

For those of you skilled but not the high school star, more modest scholarships are also available. These won't cover your entire college education but may lessen the burden on you bank balance anyway.

No matter how skilled you might be at a sport, the chances of you ever building a career from it are very slight. There' s a constant risk of injuries that might end your career before it even begins and therefore sports scholarships should not be seen as a route to professional sporting success. On the contrary; a skilled athlete should invest in an academic education purely to protect themselves from the dangers of never making it as a professional athlete. Educational scholarships offer a safety net for students and you are encouraged to study an alternative discipline as well as practice your sports.

Try to get involved in the Olympic Development Program. This program offers additional sports coaching and will increase your chances of getting a sports scholarship. You should also enroll in local and national teams if possible.

Sports scholarships are an excellent way of paying for, or subsidizing the cost of a college education. They are not easy to get unless you are a skilled sports star already but they are certainly worth the effort of applying. Spend time discussing your options with your school and club coaches as they will be experienced in how best to get offered a sports scholarship.

If you are unfortunate not to be granted a sports scholarship there are however many additional ways to receive money to pay for your further education.

Carsen @ Halftime of the Cards Game.MPG

My daughter Carsen for the 3rd straight year got to perform with the Arizona Cardinals Cheerleaders during an NFL Football Game. She was one of only five girls (of the 175 that performed) that has been with the program since they started it. Her mom and I get this for her birthday every year, because it is something she can't break, lose, or get a stain on it! :-) Plus she loves it, and makes some really great friends!

Five Ways to Please Your Wedding Shy Man

Men and weddings don't mix. It is akin to going to the doctor for a complete physical. We do it, but we are not comfortable doing it. We want to, but we don't like to. If it were up to us, the wedding would take place during the halftime activities during the playoffs. (The Super bowl is off limits. Do not push your luck.) We would stand to say "I Do." Being careful not to spill the chips and the bridesmaids main function would be to fetch us another beer. Here are five tips that will get your future husband off the couch and onto the wedding playing field.

August through January is off-limits. Football season is no time to plan a wedding. If you want your man to be completely focused on you and the wedding planning process, keep that wedding in the months that do not have football. By the way, the draft counts. (April) You will have our undivided attention during May, June, and July, which is when most weddings occur anyway.

Another great idea that will make your special guy especially happy about getting up early on Sunday and putting on a monkey-suit is to theme your reception around his favorite sport. Dress those bridesmaids in cheerleader uniforms and have them cheer you on. The officiant could announce, and you and your dad could trot onto the playing field, that is to say, down the aisle and to the alter, waving, psyched and ready to wed. A couple of strategically placed big screen TV's playing last years Super Bowl would cap off a perfect ceremony.

At the reception, it does not take a caterer to provide chips, dip, and beer to the happy guests as they watch the highlight reel of your wedding. A nice marching band in his old school colors would provide some excellent entertainment and while we are at it, why not have a nice game of tackle football with the bridesmaids against the groomsmen. The groomsmen claim shirts so the bridesmaids are skins.

Speaking of food and on a more serious noet, why not have Hooter's cater the wedding with hot and spicy chicken wings, foot long subs and a couple of kegs of the coldest beer this side of the Rockies? Nothing says I love you like a wedding cake made in the shape of the Lombardi trophy. With this kind of catering concept you could use that money you shave off of your wedding budget to obtain season tickets to the local football franchises home games.

Finally, why go through all the trouble of dressing up in that expensive wedding attire when you could just as easily rent a nice set of uniforms. Shoulder pads and cups are easier to put on than some of those wedding clothes and when you are done, you do not have to worry about getting them back to the tuxedo store on time. You would probably save a ton of money as well. (Can you say fifty-yard line?) If there is an earthquake and the building collapses, you would stand a much better chance of coming out of it injury free. Do not be sidelined by a traditional wedding when you could have a great themed wedding. If you go the whole nine yards and put on an NFL wedding halftime show, you are sure to have one happy groom.

3 Biz-Marketing Lessons to Learn From Attending an NFL Game

Over the years I've attended my share of live sporting events, but I must say there's a lot to like about live NFL games. In fact, I'd like to share 3 of those lessons below that you too can use to build your business.

1. Know what business you're REALLY in. Think the NFL is just about football? Think again. The NFL is in the entertainment business and yes the NFL is well aware of that.

At least for the Arizona Cardinals (it might be different at other stadiums) but along with the cheerleaders and a big red bird running around, they also have lots of scheduled little skits throughout the game. Considering how many commercial breaks you sit through when you watch a game on TV, it's remarkable how little downtime there is during a live game.

So, what business are YOU really in? And chances are, you're NOT in the business you think you're in. For instance, you may think you're a coach and you're in the coaching business, but truly, do your clients really want a coach? No. They want the results they're getting from your coaching. (Think about it, people are busy enough, do you think they really want to carve out the time each week or month to talk to you? They're doing it because they see the value and are getting the results. They're certainly not doing it because they have an extra hour laying around they don't know what to do with.)

Focus on what business you're really in, and you'll have a much easier time attracting clients.

2. You can't bore anyone into buying your products or services. Now, I agree the NFL has it a little easier since they're in the entertainment business. But what about you?

I'm not saying you need to dress up in a red bird costume and run around acting silly. But you do need to be at the very least interesting to your ideal clients so they want to stick around and listen to what you have to say. If you bore them, they won't be sticking around.

What can you do to more interesting (or, better yet, entertaining) in your marketing?

3. Pay attention to the little things. Again, this just might be Phoenix, but I must say this city has it together when it comes to moving large numbers of people around. (I also experienced this during my marathon participations.) I'm amazed at how fast you get in and out of the games and the parking lots. (They even set up a row of additional bathrooms next to the parking lot in case you didn't want to wait in line inside the stadium.)

While that may seem like a small thing -- after all, you're not going to a game because it's easy to park -- it really does add to the whole experience. How nice it is to know you can attend a game without being stuck in traffic for hours having to go to the bathroom.

So what "little" things can you offer your clients? What intangibles can you give them that seem small but make a big difference? Maybe you have some great forms or templates you can gift them. Or maybe you attract a wonderful community and you allow your clients to network with each other.

Think about some things you can offer your clients that don't cost you much in time or money but can really make a difference in how they feel about working with you.

Crazy Ray - The Biggest Dallas Cowboys Fan of All-Time Passes

The Dallas Cowboys of the National Football League are a much-loved team within the borders of Texas, and far beyond. For more than forty years the team has entertained their fans while performing at a consistently high level. In addition to their great success on the field, "America's Team" has been just as successful off the field and is considered to be one of the most valuable sports teams in North America. Behind every great sports franchise are the fans that support the team, no matter what. The Dallas Cowboys have had countless fans cheering them on over the past four decades, not to mention their own world famous Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders and team mascot, Rowdy. However, among all those that cheer for Cowboys football, one fan stands alone. That fan is the late Wilford "Crazy Ray" Jones.

Sadly on March 17, 2007, in Dallas, Texas, Wilford Jones' cheering voice was silenced for the last time after enduring a decade of poor health including diabetes and congestive heart failure. He was 76. Known as the original, unofficial mascot of the Dallas Cowboys, Crazy Ray entertained generations of Cowboys fans. Over the years he became as recognizable a symbol for Cowboys football as the Dallas Cowboys logo, the lone star. Fueled by Crazy Ray's passion for his team, countless fans proudly wear Dallas Cowboys apparel so that they too can show their true colours.

Crazy Ray attended the first home game of the new Dallas Cowboys franchise in 1960. His real attachment with the team began in 1962 when he started selling pennants at the Cowboys home games. Outfitted in western attire, complete with chaps, six shooters in his holsters, a vest and cowboy hat, he entertained the fans from the side lines with magic tricks, galloping on a hobbyhorse and other antics. His trademark whistle, a high pitched shrill, was also well known and earned him the nickname "Whistling Ray".

Crazy Ray is said to have missed only three Cowboys home games in the team's forty-seven years of existence. Indeed, Crazy Ray is such an integral part of Dallas Cowboys history that he has a place of honor in the fan section of the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio. Although Crazy Ray never officially worked for the Cowboys franchise he was provided with a special parking pass and granted unlimited access to Texas Stadium for all home games.

Jerry Jones, the owners of the Dallas Cowboys in passing along condolences to the family stated, "This is a sad day for anyone who is a follower of the Dallas Cowboys. Ray was the most dedicated, entertaining and passionate of Cowboys fans. He touched thousands of lives and generations of football fans. He will remain an important part of this team's heritage and family".

Wilford "Crazy Ray" Jones was one of those people who come along every now and again. He dedicated his life to his team and touched the lives of countless Cowboys fans and football fans the world over. He will always be remembered for his spirit and love of the game. There is little doubt that the memory of Crazy Ray will live on in the hearts of Dallas fans and football fans everywhere as well as the Dallas Cowboys franchise.

What Do Cowboys-n-Campfires Have in Common?

Image : http://www.flickr.com

I bet you're wondering where the heck this articles going. After all what could cowboys-n-campfires have in common? Well lots actually!

Cowboys are full of wonderful tales from their travels and their work. Campfires are a wonderful place to listen to tales whether from a cowboy or shared among a group of friends over an ice cold beer and a star filled sky.

There's another commonality. In earlier times cowboys spent a great deal of time sleeping under the clear star filled skies. They enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the universe as they stopped to rest for their night from a long day of moving cattle across the country.

Today campfires are one of the few times we get to appreciate the dark night skies with the twinkling stars. It's one of the few times we stop and appreciate what a wonderful universe we live in. In the city most of the beauty of the night sky is washed out by the ambient light.

Cowboys-n-campfires share something else - the big C. Now I bet your wondering what the heck the big C is? The big C stands for a few things Character, Charm, Cause, Caution, Cheerful, and Chatting.

Both a cowboy and a campfire have character and charm. Depending on the mood of both determines what part of their character we see. A cowboy can be angry but so can a campfire. I'm sure you've heard your fire sizzling and popping. A cowboy can be charming and so can your campfire. Remember sitting beside it watching the gentle orange and red flames flutter - so charming.

A cowboy and a campfire both have a cause. The cowboys job is to herd the cattle from point a to point b. The campfires job is to help you relax and to keep you warm. It's also their to cook a meal, prepare a pot of coffee, or enjoy a marshmallow or two.

A cowboy and campfire share caution. A cowboy needs to exercise caution when he herds the cattle. There are many dangers he will face. A campfire requires your attention and caution as there are many dangers it can cause. A fire can burn someone, and it can spread and cause a forest fire if not properly put out.

A cowboy and campfire are both cheerful. A cowboy can be heard whistling a happy tune as he carries out his duties. He always seems to have a smile on his face. Next time you go by a campfire take note of the mood of the people around it. Cheerful of course! As they all relax and share good conversation and good friends.

Cowboys and campfires share chatting. Cowboys chat among themselves as they carry out their duties. They even chat with their old friend their dog, and now and then you'll hear them chatting to the herd. The campfire is the ultimate place to relax and chat with both old and new friends. It's a place to enjoy great conversation.

So you see cowboys-n-campfires have a lot in common! Be sure to check them both out sometime soon!

Learn to Play Guitar - Some Great Tips For Beginners

You should always do some research before buying your own guitar at a random music instrument store! I still remember how I got my first guitar: I went straight to a large music store and asked one salesman for recommendations, I told him I'm a total beginner and I just need one to get me quickly started. The guitar I finally chose only cost me $140, but it didn't take me much time to find out it was a terrible choice... The problem is there's a big gap between the strings and the frets, so I would really have to hold it extremely tight and press hard to just make it sound right. After having a try with my friends guitar which cost him about $300, I immediately knew what a good guitar would mean to you.

So here's my advice for serious beginners: be SURE that you get a high quality guitar to start with, by high quality I mean you should definitely avoid those $100 dollars guitars if you don't want your learning process to be miserable. Well, make sure you don't go too far for high quality, a $1000 dollar guitar won't make you a guitarist in two days.

You should not start with songs which are too hard for your level because you will spend tons of time frustrating yourself. Professional guitar players are known as professionals for reasons. You are not gonna play in NFL the first day you touch a football, it's just impossible. You should never deny the learning curve in it. Actually I decided to learn guitar after watching some cool performance at a party, so without doubt my first try is to play my favorite songs. I didn't make any progress except that the frustration almost made me quit.

Learning guitar usually requires a great deal of practice, but you need to know that practice is not all. It may need some time to grow callouses which can protect your fingers from injury and pain. For beginners, I would suggest you start with some very simple songs such as "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star", or you can just practice chords. By doing this, you would easily let your fingers gradually get used to the string and become stronger.

One of the easiest songs for you guys who can't wait to show off is As Tears Go By - The Rolling Stones, it's only made up of three verses, and each verse contains four lines. Also, most of the chords are close so that it's quite easy for you to switch. Don't forget to check out YouTube for lots of useful tutorials, and I'm sure you will quickly improve your skills.

The most important thing is, you should always enjoy every moment when you are playing. Or you would easily give up. Hope my advice helps and have a good time learning guitar!

Top Ten Theme Parties for Girls

Image : http://www.flickr.com

All-girl parties are fun to plan as girls generally demand less organized activity and are more prepared to just "play" and be creative if the ideas and materials are provided. Slumber parties are really popular, mainly for girls around 7-11 years old and can be easy for the parents to organize. Tea parties are also great for little girls who enjoy dressing up and playing "grown-up "with tiny cups and saucers, miniature cakes and tiny cookies and sandwiches. But choosing an overall theme also makes the experience fun and relevant to the girls' interests and gives the busy parent a head start on getting the supplies together. Decorations, tableware, piñatas, party favors, invitations and banners can all be themed and color coordinated whether the party is indoors or outside, at home or at another venue.

Parties based on TV or movie stars can be a little challenging. High School Musical parties remain popular as the movie was Disney Channel's most watched movie in 2006 and version 4 is coming out in 2010. The high school cheerleaders theme is easy to replicate, with the WildCat colors of red and white. Depending on the age group the main activity could be karaoke with songs from the Broadway show. Hannah Montana parties can also be based on music with a rock star theme, star-shaped balloons and a stage for performances. Video the event and show it one year later!

Barbie Parties are easy as every little girl has a favorite Barbie doll and there are so many ways to keep little hands busy if they bring their favorite Barbie doll. They can have a Barbie doll dress up or hair styling competitions but better still, let them decorate some cheap sunglasses with glitter and rhinestones and they get to take them home afterwards. Parties with a fairy theme are also great for girls who love to dress up and play make-believe. The guests could be invited to come in costume or you could provide leotards and materials for them to make their own wings and wands. The traditional party games easily transform into Fairy Freeze Dance, Pass the Wand and Pin the Wing on the Fairy.

Disney Princess parties can be based on one favorite character such as Sleeping Beauty or Snow White and the party girl gets to be Princess for the day. Crowns, tiaras, a throne, glass slippers, royal fanfares, a red carpet - the more royal the event the better. Dora the Explorer still has a huge following and this theme lends itself to great games outdoors. An Aloha or Hula Party is perfect for a summer party at the beach or by a pool with flower leis and hula skirts or you could follow an undersea theme with fish, mermaids, shells and seaweed.

A pets' party based on toys like My Little Pony, or a cartoon character like Clifford or Blue's Clues can be inspiration for ideas, games, activities, and recipes. Of course, a litter of real puppies old enough for petting would be a star turn. Another very popular idea is the Spa Party for girls, with supplies of makeup and nail polish and fun exercises and dancing to music. This requires some advance planning but with imagination, the "diet food" could involve fruit smoothies and vegetable dips, the costume could be robes and a towel and the take-home favors easy if you can get free samples from local beauty supply stores.

Another very popular birthday party idea for girls is where they all become little chefs and cook everything themselves from pizza to cookies. The complexity of the recipes - and the cleanup - depends on the age of the girls but turning your home into an Italian trattoria for the afternoon could be sensational. The more preparation you do the better and Italian music, tourist posters on the walls, and tiramisu for dessert would make for a party even the parents could enjoy. And that could be an unexpected bonus after all your hard work and planning!

Cheerleading Tryouts: What You Need To Know To Be Prepared

Image : http://www.flickr.com

Trying out for a cheerleading team can be one of the most exciting and scary experiences in a young girl's life. To make a high school or lower cheerleading team it is essential to come prepared for try-outs. Here are some tips to help you be ready for your cheerleading experience.

First of all, make sure you know the requirements for your cheerleading squad. Many teams require at least some basic tumbling skills, such as proficient cartwheels and round-offs, and quite a few are now requiring more advanced skills including back handsprings or even back tucks. Other requirements may include passing grades for a school cheerleading squad, a knowledge of basic cheering skills and jumps, splits, and the ability to make cheering and fund raising events. Talk to the cheerleading director or coach if you are considering trying out for the team to learn what requirements your squad has. This person may also be willing to help you learn these important skills before try-outs begin.

Once you have determined the requirements for your squad, you should get to work right away improving your cheerleading skills. Many of the things you will need to learn take time for your body to be able to do. For example, learning the splits is a process that can take several months depending on your current skill level. I will be writing articles with recommendations on stretches you can do to be able to do the splits and to improve overall flexibility.

I recommend getting ready for try-outs by first improving the flexibility of your body. If you are new to cheerleading and tumbling, you should spend at least 20 minutes every day just stretching. There are many stretches you can do to increase your flexibility in your legs, back, and arms. Flexibility is important to have in everything a cheerleader does.

Tumbling is another important aspect of cheerleading. It is important to take one skill at a time and learn each completely before moving to the next skill to insure confidence and gracefulness. Some things to watch for when doing any tumbling skills are hand placement and alignment. Your body should always travel in a straight line. Start with the cartwheel. It may to helpful to draw a chalk line to make sure your leading foot, hands, and landing position are in one straight path. Once you are confident with your cartwheel, switch to learning round-offs. Video tape yourself performing these skills and see how you look. Make sure your legs are straight when in the air and that tumbling looks smooth and easy.

Once you have learned the tumbling skills mentioned above, you are ready to learn to do a back handspring. When learning more advanced tumbling skills, it is important to have an instructor and spotter present. This will help insure that you learn these skills correctly and prevent injury. An instructor can also trouble-shoot your tumbling and help you develop these skills more quickly than on your own. An instructor will likely have you start by learning to do a walk-over and practicing handstands. You can work on these skills on your own so you are ready to advance more quickly when you begin working with an instructor. There are mats that are designed to assist learning back handsprings including handspring trainers and the training wedges. Back handsprings are designed to be done on their own and in tumbling passes. Standing back handsprings are sometimes incorporated into cheers and are often more difficult than round-off back handsprings. A back handspring can take up to a year for a dedicated beginner to do it confidently on her own. If you have previous tumbling experience, that time can be shortened significantly.

For try-outs, you may have to show that you can do a standing back handspring if your squad requires this skill for cheers. Squads are more likely to require this skill if they compete in national cheerleading competitions. You will probably also be required to put together a tumbling pass to perform before the judges. This tumbling pass will require your best tumbling skills and should begin and end with cheering. When cheering in a tumbling pass, as with every time you cheer, it is appropriate to yell from the diaphragm cheers such as "go team" and "we're number 1". Yelling from the diaphragm will protect your voice and sound better than screaming. Yelling sounds like "Whoo" is not appropriate for cheering, and most judges will doc your score for doing so.

You will also need to be able to do jumps for cheerleading try-outs. These include the spread eagle, toe-touch, front hurdler, and right herkie and left herkie (also know as side hurdler). Ask the cheerleading coach or someone else like a former cheerleader to help you with technique for your jumps. Important things to remember are to point your toes, place your arms correctly as they should be for the particular jump you are doing, and above all smile, smile, smile. Once you have the technique down you should work on improving the height of your jumps and the height of your legs when in the air.

You will probably be required to learn some new cheers and a dance the week of try-outs. New cheers and dances are generally used to make try-outs fair for all the participants. Everyone has the same amount of time to learn the try-out material. Be sharp in all of your movements. Your arms should remain tight when doing cheers so they do not look sloppy. Cheer loudly, clearly, and not too fast so you are easy to understand. Work on your facial expressions. Pull out that video camera again and record yourself doing the cheers and dance. This will help you see where you can use improvement or to make sure you look happy and confident. Practice all you can so you know the material completely. You don't want to be the participant who is watching and copying others doing the dance beside you. Ask other people including the cheerleading coach if they will watch you cheer or dance and critique you. This will help you get over the try-out jitters and can be really helpful.

When tryouts come, be prepared. Bring a water bottle, towel, snacks, extra hair bands, your good luck charm, and anything else you think you may need to help you feel prepared and relaxed.

That is it. These are all the skills you will need to know for try-outs. Once you have done all you can do to prepare, try not to be nervous. Just remember to smile all the time and make eye contact with the judges. Be as confident as possible. If you don't have the best techniques for all the skills, don't worry. Many times, cheerleaders who can't do more than a cartwheel make the team over girls with more advanced skills because they are fun to watch and look like they love cheering. Be positive during the try-outs and once again, SMILE!

Clint Murchison and Jerry Jones - Owners At Opposite Ends of the Field

The Dallas Cowboys, of the National Football League, have been a success on and off the football field for more than 30 years. Dubbed "America's Team", they are a fan favorite in the state of Texas, the USA and internationally, as well. It is the play on and off the field, and the individuals who have contributed to that play, that is at the heart of the Cowboys great success.

Through its franchise history, the Dallas Cowboys have had a number of all-stars whose skills and achievements have created legends and contributed to Dallas Cowboys history. Endless players have donned the single star and blue and white jerseys of the Dallas Cowboys and taken to the field at Texas Stadium. In so doing, some of them, such as Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith have become legends.

The Dallas Cowboys are one of the most successful teams in the history of the National Football League and hold numerous league records, thanks to countless players over the years, not to mention the team's coaches who have walked the sidelines day after day. Cowboys football success can also be attributed to the dedicated and solid team owners they have had over their forty plus years of existence.

When the Dallas Cowboys franchise was established in 1960, the founding owner was Dallas, Texas, native Clint Murchison. Murchison was a hands-off owner who believed in surrounding himself with experts in the different aspects of the game. Hence, he delegated operational control of the Cowboys to General Manager Tex Schramm, Coach Tom Landry and Scouting/Personnel Director Gil Brandt. Landry enjoyed total authority in the day to day running of the team while Brandt was given free reign in the drafting and scouting of players. Murchison's non interferring approach and lack of second guessing has been said by many to be the driving force behind the Dallas Cowboy's great success and their 20 consecutive winning seasons from 1965 to 1985.

In 1984, Murchison sold the Dallas Cowboys to an investment syndicate. In 1989 the team was bought by Jerry Jones. It quickly became evident that the ownership style of Murchison and Jones was at opposite ends of the field.

Jerrel Wayne "Jerry" Jones, a star running back for his North Little Rock, Arkansas, high school team, would go on to play play guard at the University of Arkansas where Jimmy Johnson and Barry Switzer were among his teammates. In addition to owning the Cowboys, Jones has since taken on the role of General Manager. Of all the owners in professional sports, he is considered to be one of the most involved with his team on a day-to-day basis. Indeed, Jones can be seen on the sidelines of every Cowboys game.

Upon becoming owner, Jones fired Dallas Cowboys coach Tom Landry, the only coach the Cowboys had ever known, and promptly hired his former teammate, Jimmy Johnson to take over the coaching duties. The unceremonial firing of Landry did not go over well with Cowboy fans and to this day he has not been forgiven. The dismissal of Landry was was the first sign that the new owner of Cowboys football was headed in a new and opposite direction.

With Johnson at the helm, the Cowboys became Super Bowl Champions two consecutive years. Instead of giving due credit to Johnson, Jones himself took the credit saying "any one of 500 coaches could have won those Super Bowls" considering the talent that he had drafted and signed for the team. Jones also made a comment that he was going to replace Johnson with another former teammate, Barry Switzer. Although Jones later denied this statement it turned out to be true and so ended Jimmy Johnson's tenure as Dallas Cowboys coach, despite him having lead his team to two consecutive Super Bowl victories. Dallas Cowboys coach Switzer took the team to their fifth Super Bowl Championship in 1995. Since Switzer, Jones has hired Chan Gailey, Dave Campo, Bill Parcels and most recently Wade Phillips to lead America's Team.

Clint Murchison's - let the experts lead - approach was the total opposite of Jerry Jones - get involved - approach. Indeed, Jones is constantly criticized by Cowboys fans for being too involved with all aspects of the team. Although Murchison and Jones' ownership styles are at opposite ends of the field each of their unique techniques have proven to be fruitful for the Dallas Cowboys and for themselves. The NFL Dallas Cowboys have been an exceptional team through the years thanks in part to these dynamic owners.

Cheerleaders and Pee Wee Football

There is a mixed feeling about the worth of cheerleaders to the youth football program. I personally feel that from a financial point of view cheerleaders are moneymakers. The insurance is cheap and there is no equipment to buy, just uniforms. Some people feel they add ambiance to the whole football day.

As a coach, I feel the cheerleaders can be a pain in the rump. I suggest you check with the league and see what their rules are pertaining to how much cooperation and involvement you need to have with them. If you are required to deal with them make sure you talk to who is in charge of the cheerleading squad for your age level. I have found it best to set the guidelines up front so there is no miscommunication. Make sure you let the cheerleader's coaches know what you will allow not only for homecoming but also for each game. Make sure the cheerleaders do not go beyond what your league's rules state. For example if no pyramids are allowed then make sure that is known.

Homecoming and/or Rally night is the big event for the cheerleaders so try to cut them some slack. I usually let my kids run through a banner and share a snack with the girls after the game. If you are having a big feast have Team Mom get the parent's of the girls involved.

Over the years, the cheerleaders are usually out of the way during the youth football game. They take center stage on the main field when you are at halftime.

The Dallas Cowboys Jump Out To A Great Start

The 2007 Dallas Cowboys season is now into its fourth week with some teams looking for their first win and other teams looking to continue their undefeated streak. The Dallas Cowboys fall into the latter category as they get ready to tackle the St Louis Rams this weekend in pursuit of their fourth straight victory.

The Dallas Cowboys started off the 2007 season by winning at home against the New York Giants 45-35. The high scoring game finished with six touchdowns and 478 yards for the Cowboys. Tony Romo threw four touchdown passes averaging 23 yards on his 15 completions. On the other side, the New York Giants posted four touchdowns and 448 yards. It was a game in which the offenses ruled.

Following their opening win the Dallas Cowboys next faced the Miami Dolphins. Once again the Dallas Cowboys offense proved to be formidable as they defeated the Dolphins, in their home opener, 37-20. The Dolphins looked to be hanging in tough against the Cowboys as they took a 13-10 lead on the first drive of the second half. The Cowboys strong offense however could not be contained. In the third quarter Tony Romo threw to Tony Curtis for a touchdown and the Cowboys took a 17 to 13 lead and never looked back. Romo finished the day with two touchdown passes and as the team's second leading rusher. Owens led the Dallas receivers with five catches for 97 yards and Barber rushed for 89 yards on 14 carries.

Week three of the season saw the Dallas Cowboys facing the 2006 Super Bowl finalists, the Chicago Bears. The Cowboys would prove to be victorious again with a 34 to 10 lopsided win. The Bears appeared to have their problems with their quarterback throwing three interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown. The Cowboys offense was on target again as they scored the game's final 24 points on three touchdowns and a field goal on their first four possessions of the second half. Tony Romo threw for 329 yards and two touchdowns.The Cowboys defense also proved to be on their game holding the Bears to just ten points.

This weekend the Cowboys will take on the St Louis Rams who have started the 2007 season with three losses. Since the Rams moved from Anaheim, Calif., to St. Louis in 1994, the two teams have played each other only three times. In 2002 the Cowboys beat the Rams in St. Louis, and in 2005 and 2006 the Rams defeated the Cowboys at Texas Stadium. This Sunday the Dallas Cowboys look to change their run against the Rams at home as they vie for their fourth straight victory to open the 2007 season.
