A $300 million gamble: Can Brad Pitt do for F1 what Tom Cruise did for NASCAR? Tom Cruise’s “Days of Thunder” launched NASCAR to a new audience, the same hope for new F1 movie.

I saw the movie @F1
...
Amazing visually. Incredible racing scenes. See it on IMAX.
But Brad Pitt is 61. NO ONE should look like Brad Pitt. At any age. It's just such bulls---.
There is nothing funny about it.

A 16-year-old girl reviews the AC/DC concert from Arlington, Texas AC/DC played Arlington on Monday, & a young concert goer asks a vital question about the future of the genre

Let my 16 yr old daughter review the #ACDC show.
This one she crushed BC she asked a very important question:

A popup merch store for AC/DC will probably be more entertaining than their show.

Luka Doncic’s return to his old home was not surreal. It was a sad disaster. Luka Doncic’s 1st game in Dallas since The Trade was a memorably awful night for the Mavericks.

Gotta tell you - the return of Luka Doncic to face his old team was utterly terrible. Never seen anything like it.

www.star-telegram.com/sports/spt-c...

I asked Mavs coach Jason Kidd to address Mavs fans who feel like there is no hope without Luka. I could not believe his answer: “Trades happen. Some are comparing it to Babe Ruth, which is kinda cool.”

Not sure he knows the Mavs are the Red Sox.

Dallas Stars have a distinct Buffalo Bills aura that they would love to shed ASAP The Dallas Stars are once again a prime contender to win a title that they have come so close to since 2020.

No team in sports carries the hope and expectation generated by "So Close" like the Dallas Stars.

Red Sox defeat Rangers 5-2 to open the season on the strength of 2 HRs & 4 RBI from Wilyer Abreau.
If the playoffs started today, the Rangers would miss the postseason.

Texas Rangers’ stunner: The current state of its old stadium now features a Starbucks Thought to be destined for a wrecking ball, at least, the Rangers’ ”old home” that was the Ballpark is still open.

Of all the things the @rangers have achieved, what they've done with their old stadium may be the most shocking. The Ballpark in Arlington is still open for business.

For fans of the #DallasCowboys ... I am sorry.

Rodney Terry’s timeline at Texas was inevitable; why it will end soon, or march on Texas is struggling under it’s 3rd-year coach who may get a reprieve for one more shot because of a few reasons.

Texas basketball can get away with a lot since football is winning, but not sure Steve Sarkisian's team can save Rodney Terry.

Nico Harrison was nearly with the San Antonio Spurs & now he’s the ‘reviled’ Mavericks GM His track record as the GM of the Mavericks says Nico Harrison should be trusted, dealing Luka Doncic killed that.
