Dak Attack! We love Dak! It's all the rage now. Ever since Dak Prescott, rookie Quarterback from Mississippi State took over for the Dallas Cowboys the team has gained a successful 6-1 record. Prescott took over the position when veteran quarterback, Tony Romo, went down in week two with a shoulder injury from a hit by Seattle Seahawks Linebacker, Bruce Irvin. This made Cowboys fans nervous since they were in this no-Romo situation last year, and it lead to an awful 4-12 record.

However, to everyone's surprise but mine, Prescott stepped up with no problems at all. While he didn't win his first game, he also didn't turn the ball over. After watching that game, I knew this wouldn't define our season. We had two players behind the line of scrimmage who never played a down of NFL football before, but still had immense talent. I knew they would get into a good rhythm soon.

As it turned out, that meant the very next week. Prescott still didn't turn the ball over, the Running Back, Ezekiel Elliot, looked great, and it all lead to a Cowboys win. This win gave them enough confidence and momentum to carry them to five more wins. They play the Browns this week, so that should be another win, and an easy one at that.

I had watched Prescott over the past few years at Mississippi State, and I knew he was talented. In fact, I liked him so much, I even wrote a blog about him on my old blog, samsuttonsnews.blogspot.com. I have a new blog that's way better, called samsuttonnews.wordpress.com.

Anyways, enough promoting myself. The point is, I love Prescott. I think he is everything the Cowboys need, and while I've been a Romo fan for a while, his time has come to an end. Go Cowboys! Go Prescott! Go get that Super Bowl championship!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
