For the fifth straight year, The Athletic is conducting an annual fan survey for Dallas Mavericks fans and the season that was. You can participate below!

I’ll publish results of this survey next week alongside analysis of the answers, what they mean and what most stands out from the compiled responses. This will not resemble scientific methodology; they’ll be tallied from this post and from social media sites such as X and Reddit. But we’ve done this in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. It’s always fascinating to examine what you feel about the team.

If you’re on a mobile device, you may find it easier to take this survey directly on Google Forms’ website. Here’s the direct link to it.

Desktop and tablet users should have an easier time using the embedded survey below. You can fill out the short answer questions (but they aren’t required), along with a few other answers that don’t directly pertain to your Mavericks fandom.

This is my favorite annual exercise I do at The Athletic and, as always, I’m fascinated to see the results.

Dallas Cowboys star wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is officially a camp holdout.

For the past month, it has been expected that Lamb would not report to camp without a new contract and reports on Tuesday morning indicated he was planning to be a holdout as the team charter was being loaded up for Oxnard, and now it is confirmed.

Despite the unfortunate developement, there is still a glimmer of good news for the Cowboys faithful.

Lamb and the team “have worked” on a deal, and there is hope that an agreement can be reached.

Lamb’s holdout could be very costly, with every mixed practice resulting in a fine up to $40,000.

Last season, Lamb had the best year of his professional career. He led the NFL in receptions with 135 while racking up 1,749 yards and 12 touchdowns. Lamb, who added two rushing touchdowns, earned first-team All-Pro honors and was named to the third Pro Bowl of his career.

 The team’s first training camp practice is Thursday, July 25.

Let’s hope a deal can be struck by then to get Lamb back onto the field as soon as possible.

Dallas Schilling Sr. passed away peacefully on Sunday, July 14th at St. Luke’s Hospice. He was born in 1928 to Carl and Ethel Wilson Schilling in Duluth, Minnesota. Dallas started working early in his life as a logger when he was a teenager. He was sixteen years old when he was employed at Butler Shipyard in Duluth during WWII building Liberty Ships. He started driving truck in the late 1940s for Security Storage Company, and then went on to drive for Glendenning Motorways Company and then Midwest Motor Express Inc. Dallas and his wife Mona had a beef farm for many years in Solway Township. They were active members of the Duluth Teamster Retirees Club and traveled as a group across the U.S. and Minnesota. Dallas had other talents beyond driving truck and farming. He was a tinkerer with a knack for repairing things around the home and farm. He carved wooden Christmas ornaments for Mona and the family. Dallas is remembered lovingly by his family. His kindness and loyalty to his family and friends, along with a lifetime of hard work have forged a legacy in his name. He will always be known for his strength of character, humor, and his ability to solve problems.

Dallas was preceded in death by his wife of 73 years, Ramona (VanGuilder). His daughter-in-law Sandra, and brothers and sisters: George Schlief, Earl Gorder, Clarence Gorder, Arnold Schilling, Betsy Schilling, and Carolanne Feick.

He is survived by his brother, Robert Schilling; sister, Linda McGath; children, Susan (Tim) Mowbray, Dallas Schilling Jr., Steven (Edith) Schilling, Roxanne (Gary) Burgdorf; nine grandchildren; twenty-one great grandchildren; and seven great-great grandchildren.

The family would like to express their appreciation to the staff of Home Instead and the St. Luke’s Hospice for their kindness and assistance in caring for our father the past few months. A memorial gathering for family and friends will be held at the Duluth Gospel Tabernacle at 1515 W Superior Street on August 10, 2024, at 12:00 pm to celebrate Dallas Schilling’s life. A private graveside service will be held for immediate family.
