It’s hard to believe that something like this has never happened before.
Until 2023, Texas would not have two professional teams in America’s four major sports win titles in consecutive seasons. To be clear, this is only possible in a sense because there is only one NHL team in the state, but it has been possible for quite some time between football, basketball, and baseball.
of dallas cowboys and houston texans We’ve never gone back-to-back (even with the Houston Oilers at the time). on the other hand, san antonio spurs, houston rockets and dallas mavericks All of them have titles, but none of them have won one after the other (though the Rockets have won back-to-back titles).
It took all the way from 2022 to 2023. houston astros and texas rangers This phenomenon happened because they won back-to-back World Series.This is what I discussed with legendary pitcher Roger Clemens on my radio show morning gathering When he joined us on Friday morning, 94.1 San Antonio Sportster.
As an Astros fan myself, I enjoyed hearing Clemens talk about receiving videos of guys like Hunter Brown and Justin Verlander working on things. Although Houston lost to the Rangers in the ALCS last year, they are expected to win the American League West for the fourth consecutive year (seventh in eight years). According to FanGraphs. The Texans currently sit third in odds behind the Astros. seattle mariners.
The Astros reached the ALCS for an incredible seventh consecutive year and strengthened their bullpen by signing Josh Hader this offseason.only atlanta braves and los angeles dodgers The odds for the World Series are better than they are when Opening Day is right around the corner.
Interestingly, when we spoke, Clemens wanted to talk a lot about football, and how much he believed in the Dallas Cowboys and quarterback Dak Prescott. My worlds rarely intersect like this, so big shout out to his blog the boys. So I appreciated the opportunity to talk about various sports with one of the greatest pitchers of all time.
Clemens joined me to talk about the Cologuard Classic by Exact Sciences, a PGA Tour Tournament of Champions being held this weekend (March 8-10) at La Paloma Country Club in Tucson, Arizona. I joined the group. This event regularly draws him one of the strongest fields of PGA Tour champions, but the tournament is not just about golf. Its mission is to raise awareness about the importance of colon cancer screening and recognizing those affected by colon cancer. It also helps kick off National Colon Cancer Awareness Month in March.
Thank you Clemens and Cologuard.
