Dallas Stars are the best team in town


Let's salute the 27-8 Dallas Stars and their two months of hockey.     

We understand that the tougher part of the season is ahead but so far so good for this young and exciting team.

Go Stars!   I feel really good about this team its chances in the upcoming second half and playoffs.

2015 was a fun year for the Rangers (specially September)


The Rangers had two seasons.   

The first one ended on July 31st with a team playing around .500 and 7 games behind Houston.     Then they made the trade for Cole Hamels and improved their bullpen immensely with Sam Dyson and Jake Dikman.

The second one ended when the aforementioned Cole Hamels clinched the AL West with a complete game victory over the Angels.

It took literally 162 games to win the division.    They celebrated on the last day of the season.

The post season was great until we got to the 7th inning in Toronto.   It was horrific to watch.   It was like watching game 6 of the 2011 World Series all over again.   So let's forget that part of the story.

We salute the Rangers for great baseball in August and September, specially that 4 game sweep of Houston to move to first place.

Looking forward to 2016!

Hillary can’t discuss abused women without discussing Bill’s women



As we’ve grown accustomed to, Mr. Trump has once again put a topic on the political table that no other GOP candidate would dare do. I know that Senator Rand Paul mentioned this a few months ago but he can’t get on TV as easily as Mr. Trump does.  Once again, it’s Trump forcing us to talk about an uncomfortable issue, from illegal immigrants to refugees to President Clinton’s women.
Just read an interesting point by Ruth Marcus about the Clinton-Trump feud:
Trump has smeared women because of their looks. 
Clinton has preyed on them, and in a workplace setting where he was by far the superior. 
That is uncomfortable for Clinton supporters but it is unavoidably true.
Ruth Marcus is right on.
During the entire Lewinsky episode, I kept waiting for a feminist to say: “Sorry, Mr. President, but we can’t take it anymore”.
Maybe one said it but I don’t remember. Instead, I remember excuses and blaming the GOP with Hillary Clinton using the loudest megaphone. I came to the conclusion that the feminist movement would support any man as long as he supported abortion.     
Frankly, I’d rather talk about ISIS, Russia, China’s naval expansion, and the refugee crisis. However, it is ridiculous to give Mrs. Clinton a pass on her husband’s treatment of women. Also, Mrs. Clinton was the enabler. She defended Mr. Clinton. She put up with his humiliating behavior. Again, she can’t have it both ways anymore.
Yes, Mr. Clinton’s women are fair game.
P.S. You can listen to my show (Canto Talk) and follow me on Twitter.
