Even when the Stars play well, they can't get a win. And did you see how this thing ended?
Marty Turco made 30 saves and didn't allow a goal thru overtime. While Turco was hot on one end, the Stars took 29 shots on goal on the other. But still no score after overtime.
So then came the shoot-out...
Jere Lehtinen evened things up at 1 goal a piece in the third round.
Then the LA Kings' Justin Williams was up next...

The TCU Horned Frogs are coming off of a season in which they finished 11-2 and ranked No. 7 in the country in both major polls. The Frogs' only losses were to two other top-10 teams, Utah and Oklahoma.
TCU has two good non-conference road games (Clemson and Virginia), their traditional Iron Skillet game with SMU and a silly game against 1-AA team Texas State, plus their eight game Mountain West Conference slate.

Ted Madden, George Riba and HS Game Time producer Paul Melton and I were talking in the WFAA sports office this morning and Ted started talking about bunnies.
Not the furry little animals, but something in basketball.

We were there last night as the guys from The Ticket played a basketball game against the Lake Highlands Thunder, a girls team made up of mostly LH high school players.
It all started after that 100-0 game between private schools a couple months ago. The Hardline guys started talking about whether they could beat the winning team from that game ... and it eventually turned into last night's event.
We'll have the story tonight ...
