Born and raised in Oak Cliff. Know this city inside and out.
Mutt Cantina in Deep Ellum is genius. Beer for me, off-leash play for the dog. Perfect Saturday.
Every photo at TopGolf is a yellow flag at minimum. You can like TopGolf AND have other interests.
GSP avenged both of his losses. Jones lost to Matt Hamill by DQ and never fought the toughest matchups at heavyweight. GSP is the real GOAT.
Drive from Dallas and make a weekend of it. Friday practice, Saturday qualifying, Sunday race, then hit 6th Street. It is the best sports weekend in Texas.
City rec leagues are the best value. $75 for a full season of basketball through Plano Parks & Rec. Can't beat it.
Travel nursing in DFW is still paying $2,000-3,000/week for 13-week contracts in high-demand units. That's $104-156K annualized. Worth considering before committing to staff.
The feeder pattern point is crucial. I'm in Lewisville ISD but my feeder goes to Flower Mound High — which is basically a different district quality-wise.
Cowtown Christmas Market at Will Rogers is massive. 200+ vendors. Budget 3-4 hours to walk the whole thing.
Electrify America at the Walmart in Plano works great with my Hyundai Ioniq 5. 10-80% in 18 minutes.
If you live in a newer subdivision built after 2020, you almost certainly have fiber access. Builders include it now because home buyers demand it.
The fact that most people don't know this is exactly why employers get away with it. Salary secrecy benefits one party — and it's not you.
Summer Moon's Moon Milk should be illegal. I'm there every morning and I'm not sorry about it.
The US-380 widening project in Collin County will be the subject of archaeological study in the year 3000.
The Grapevine is a Dallas institution. Cash only though, heads up.
Oliveira submitting Tsarukyan in round 1 got completely overshadowed by everything else on that card. That was a massive upset.
Texas-OU weekend at Fair Park is the most insane sporting event atmosphere in DFW. Split crowd, half orange half crimson, and everyone is eating corny dogs. America.
DAZN at $20/month is the best value in boxing right now. Almost every weekend has a solid card. The library of past fights is worth the price alone.
The real answer is Braum's and I will not be elaborating.
Got my dashcam after someone brake-checked me on 30 near Arlington. $80 investment that provides evidence and peace of mind.
Lemonade is absurdly easy. Signed up in 3 minutes on my phone. $11/month. Filed a claim for a stolen bicycle and got paid in 48 hours.
Allen having one high school with 6,000 students is wild but the facilities are insane. $60M stadium.
Title Boxing Club is fine for cardio but do not expect to learn real boxing there. It is kickboxing fitness with boxing gloves. Good workout, not real training.
Mutt Cantina in Deep Ellum is genius. Beer for me, off-leash play for the dog. Perfect Saturday.
The $96 monthly pass vs. $200+ in gas and $150+ in downtown parking makes the math work. You just have to accept the 15-min wait times.
Dirk is untouchable at #1. 21 seasons, one team, one championship that everyone said was impossible.
