Somebody is finally coming to Cowboys safety Roy Williams' defense. Linebacker Greg Ellis addressed past criticism from fans and the media.
"As a teammate, I feel bad that people are saying Dallas needs to do something to Roy," Ellis said in a DMN story yesterday. "Is some of this stuff getting back to Roy? I don't know. My job is to defend him. I want Roy on this team. I know he wants to be on this team."
Williams said last week that he's still not comfortable in coach Wade Phillips' 3-4 defensive scheme.
Bull Durham is one of those movies I could watch hundreds of times and never get sick of it. And you get important advice such as: "Your shower shoes have fungus on them."
There's been some talk of a sequel, but I hope it doesn't happen. I think it would be too awkward to develop a story with the main characters.
Tim Robbins, who played Ebby Calvin "Nuke" LaLoosh, talked about the movie's greatness and women's undergarments with Dan Patrick on Wednesday. Check it out.
While browsing the Friends of the Katy Trail site, I came across a notice about a boot camp sponsored by Aqua Medical Spa on Saturdays. It leaves from the Uptown location at 2222 McKinney Ave. and heads to the Katy Trail. There will be a personal trainer, registered dietitians and acupuncturists on hand to answer questions.
I'm tempted to try it out, but at $20 for a single session starting at the unheard-of-for-me hour of 8 a.m., I'll probably pass. They do offer payment plans for multiple sessions, though. Call 214-443-0100 for more information or to sign up.
One week from today, you should be getting ready to run the Katy 5K at Reverchon Park. It's the run's 10th anniversary, and it's turned into one giant event. The picnic party following the 5K features music and food from great area restaurants. It seems as if every Uptown restaurant has a booth there. I haven't been able to attend since 2006 because of work, but I remember being sad I couldn't partake in all the awesome food and drinks! (I have trouble ingesting things right after a run, even a 5K. No post-race Michelob Ultra for me, sadly, but I did snag some snacks to bring home.)
But for the rest of you, get out there and enjoy a nice evening run on the trail! The proceeds go toward trail improvements, and for only $22 more than the $28 entry fee, you can become a member of Friends of the Katy Trail. That offer's good only until Wednesday, which is also when registration bumps to $35.
