True Team Impact.
Members of Power Team were on hand. The brainchild of Keith Brooking and Terence Newman. Two men who are all about giving back to their communities.

Flag Day Follies with an Impact.
It is being estimated that 250,000 people will storm into downtown Dallas, Texas to partake in the Victory Parade that will begin at the Convention Center and work it's way toward the American Airlines Center on Thursday. The fun will commence at 10 am which means that traffic will get shut down by 8 am I am guessing. Bring your water and your SPF, it's going to be a sizzler of a day.

On Cheers, Tears, and Many Years!
Another word that kept popping into my mind was 'class'. The one intangible this team and owner exuded throughout the playoff. Not thrown off after a blown 23 point lead in Portland. Not rattled after the childish shenanigans of the Lakers in Game 4. Not bothered when faced with a 15 or 16 point deficit with L.A., Oklahoma City, or Miami. The ability to finish what they started.

All Knotted Up!
It was May 1996 as a newbie to Seattle and the Sonics just eliminated Utah for the right to play the 72-10 Bulls for the NBA Finals. We all knew there was no way Seattle would match up with the Bad Boys of Chicago, yet it still hurt all the same when we lost in 6. That was one electric week in the Northwest. Heartache.

1 Win Away-1 Late Night.
In what was billed the single most important game for historical perspective in Dallas proper, the Mavericks did anything but fold up and lay down. I was not at Game 4 with the Lakers but got a sense of Deja Vu as I saw it rain in a hail of threes. Did I read Rick Carlisle's boys rang up 56% on the shooting gallery? Making the Heat look like dead ducks? Nice!
