Since the first NFL preseason game happened last night. Let's get ready for the upcoming season by looking at who has the best stadium in all of Texas.

If you would have told me a few years ago there would be a National Hockey League team in Nashville, Tennessee, and not only that, but a successful one, I would have been hesitant.
Mike Fisher is a fan favorite in the town of Nashville. He's also a favorite around these offices because the guy plays hockey for a living, he's a philanthropist and is married to the gorgeous Carrie Underwood. We have this jealous admiration for him where we keep wishing slightly bad things to happen like a really painful hangnail or spotty cell phone service. We've got issues.
Taylor Swift's 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together' has been getting a lot of attention. But perhaps the most eye-raising use of the popular debut single from 'Red' tune is that it's currently being used as the 'official' song of the NHL lockout.
Just seven years removed from the cancelled 2004-05 season, the NHL is moving perilously close to another major work stoppage. The regular season is still scheduled to begin October 11, just two weeks away, but the owners, who locked the players out earlier this month, have now decided to fully cancel the preseason.
This does not bode well if you're a hockey fan.
