Kontiki Beach Resort

If you and your loved one need some time out of the city, Kontiki Beach Resort is just a short trip from the city of San Antonio.  Situated along the Texas coast, this beach resort is away from everything yet still close to all the modern amenities.  Enjoy the amazing views, head out and do some fishing or just relax on the beaches.  Or if you have a boat, head out onto the water and spend some time relaxing under the sun.  Does anyone have any great place in KontikiBeach that they would recommend to fi

Uncertain, Texas

In eastern Texas, at the corner of Louisiana and Arkansas, is a tiny town of 150 people called Uncertain.  This amazing little town is as interesting as its name, as it’s a Texas wetland on the CaddoLake that covers more than 32,000 acres.  Bayous and water channels meander for miles and for couples looking for a tiny bit of paradise, this may be just the spot.  Take your loved one out on the water and either canoe or tour the

Spec's College Nickel Package -- Week 2

 

1. Lane Kiffin

Why did I always have the sneaking suspicion that Kiffin was another Mike Shula or David Shula or [sorry to bring up the name, Washington and UCLA fans] Rick Neuheisel.

As in: the "hot coach" who's more sizzle than steak.

Isn't USC supposed to roll out NFL bodies up and down the field?  Isn't Marqise Lee one of the top talents in the land?

54 yards passing?

Longest pass play: 8 yards?

Give credit to the Washington State defense, but ... wow ...

South Padre Island

Located just off the coastal tip of Texas and at the Gulf of Mexico, South Padre Island is a true resort town.  This long strip of land is wall-to-wall resorts and attractions and in its zeal to be laid back the city actually passed a law that bans wearing ties on the island.  While visiting, enjoy the beaches, fishing, boating, parasailing and countless other water activities.  Go dolphin watching or head into town for some fine dining and shopping and, once the lights go out, hit up the night spots and go dancing.  There

The Alamo

The Alamo, in the city of San Antonio, is one of the most popular attractions in all of Texas.  For couples that enjoy spending some time together learning about the history of the state, this is a great way to spend the day.  Learn all about the origins of this historic place, explore the old fort and walk through the gardens.  If you want to go even deeper, check out one of many educational presentations that the site has to offer.  It’s an important piece of Texas history, but it’s also a stimulating attrac

Texas Hill Country Wine Trail

When one thinks Texas, one normally doesn’t think about wine, but this state has got its own thing going when it comes to this delicious drink.  The Hill Country Wine Trail is one great way to both get out of the city for a day and enjoy some of the best wineries that the state has to offer.  Conveniently, the trail stretches out west of Austin, so it’s a short ways out and then a cruise through some of the beautiful Texas countryside.  And if you happen to be there at the right time, you can even get sa

Riverwalk’s Museum Reach, San Antonio

The San Antonio Riverwalk is already a popular place to visit, one of the most popular in Texas, in fact.  The museum reach is a recent expansion that adds art to this already eventful attraction.  At just over a mile, couples can enjoy beautiful landscaping and take in the many public art displays along the way.  And for those that don’t feel like walking, barges are available to carry you and your loved one down the river.  Add to that the rest of the Riverwalk, with its fine dining, theme parks, night clubs and ot

Explore the Town of Bandera

Known as the Texas “cowboy capital”, the small town of Bandera is a great place just a short drive northwest from the big city of San Antonio.  Grab your loved one and journey into a place that lets you relive a bit of the past while still providing all the modern comforts.  Explore the town and its shops, museums and cowboy bars.  Enjoy a rodeo, take a history tour or show up at the right time to catch one of many great events, a good number of them cowboy themed.  Or wander the surrounding

Scouting Report, Taijuan Walker 9.4.13 - Gameflow D

.

Inning 4

I read somewhere that the Royals have the best contact rate in the AL, or lowest K rate, or something, and ... obviously Butler, Gordon, and Hosmer are a rough ride for any righty.

They adjusted, in-game, to the fact that Taijuan was throwing only two pitches, both of them hard.  (This is what Texas and LAA do to annoy Felix:  focus on his 93 fastball and 91 "changeup."  They start their bats "in time" to the expected pitch, tipping their caps on the curve and slider.  Even you could hit 95 MPH in the cage if you started your bat like a metronome.)

Despite the fact that the Royals were cheating, and that Taijuan was cheerfully allowing them to do so, they still didn't do much.

Six Flags Over Texas, Arlington

Just a short drive away from the city of Dallas lies Arlington and within it, Six Flags Over Texas.  For the young couple that wants to have a bit of fun with their romantic outing, this can be a great choice.  Though the majority of park attractions consist of rides, many of them quite thrilling, there are also special events and other entertaining things to do while at Six Flags Over Texas.  Whether you’re young and adventurous or just young at heart, a trip here makes for an exciting excursion from the
