Leading Off

|

1. Discussion of burglary trends in Dallas. I was burgled on a Saturday afternoon about a decade ago, and we’ve always set the alarm and kept the dog inside ever since. That’s in addition to devising an intricate front-door trap involving string, a paper clip, and a teetering paint can.

2. The Cowboys win, overcoming the continued inept play of the man impersonating former Sooner great Roy Williams. And please quit writing that Williams gets “burned” on plays, as in the NFL a player must be in the burn radius of a TD reception (approx. 7 yards) to be even lightly toasted.

3. Somebody please find a local connection to the MTV Video Music Awards, because I have much to say about that travesty. (Apparently, the only interesting thing that happened was Kid Rock decking Tommy Lee, according to an MTV veejay, which we didn’t see.) Let’s start with this: Britney, Britney, Britney.
