Few Americans are on the road more than the manager of a major league baseball team. But Buck Showalter, the Orioles' famously persevering manager, rarely stays put even in the offseason, when he's canvassing the country for new talent. After all, being stagnant would never have earned him two American League Manager of the Year awards or helped him turn around the Orioles' 14-year stretch of losing seasons. His most recent motivator? "When we [the Orioles] were leaking a little oil in mid-season (2012)

AFTER 13 YEARS, an era in television ends Friday night: "Dallas" is closing its run. Still, the show will not be soon forgotten, for in its tenure, "Dallas" defined the culture and thus redefined us."Dallas" deserves a significant place in any history of television. It lasted longer than any other prime-time dramatic series except "Gunsmoke." The "Who Shot J.R.?" episode of 1980 is the second-highest-rated show in TV history.The show also made good despite violating several shibboleths about what makes a successful television series.

Since Buck Showalter hasn't had much of an opportunity to explore Dallas, we thought we'd provide him with some the region's most interesting detours around town. Who knows? Maybe he'll surprise his wife with an outing! Getting there Dallas is 1,366 miles from Baltimore; about three hours and 20 minutes flying time from BWI-Marshall Airport. Only American and Spirit airlines offer nonstop flights from BWI. Round-trip airfare on Spirit begins at about $198 and about $350 on American.

To nobody's surprise, all four living former presidents were on their best behavior last week at the dedication of the library and museum named for the latest of them, George W. Bush, at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. The honoree's father, George H.W., along with Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter, dutifully latched on to the positive about the junior Bush's eight years in the Oval Office, eliminated the negative and, as in Johnny Mercer's old song, didn't mess with Mr. In Between.

I wasn't going to write about Larry Hagman, who died Friday in Texas at age 81 from complications of cancer. Even though I had reported on him and reviewed much of his work over the years, as well as doing an interview with him during a party at his Malibu home one raucous night, I thought I'd leave it to others to do the appreciations. But all I am seeing is "I Dream of Jeannie" and J.R. Ewing, and while that's obvious and fine, I thought there should be at least one voice mentioning the Hagman I remember.

He must delegate Aaron Wilson Baltimore Sun The myth that Jerry Jones tries to perpetuate goes like this: Former Arkansas guard, self-made billionaire and boss of "America's Team" actually has it all figured out. Well, not so fast. Bill Parcells acquired a lot of talent still on the roster, and Jones still has plenty of competent, low-key football people advising him behind the scenes. Can the Cowboys keep climbing with Jones running the show? Yes and no. It all depends on how he delegates when cameras aren't watching.

The Dallas Cowboys may be America's Team, but the Ravens have the football gods on their side. Fate plays a part in every season as well as luck, but the Ravens seem to be getting divine intervention. And after the team's 31-29 win against the Cowboys in Baltimore Sunday, even the Ravens were starting to have some fun with it. They believe. "Before the game I said should I go into prayer in a closet for this one?" asked Ravens left guard Bobbie Williams. "I thought, 'Why not?

In the final frantic two minutes, Ravens players hobbled on and off the field, some occupying roles that they had never before been asked to fill. By necessity, Dean Pees sent in defensive packages that the Ravens hadn't even practiced, all while a once seemingly-comfortable lead and the NFL's longest home winning streak hung in the balance. The Dallas Cowboys, who had possession pretty much all afternoon, had two chances in the game's final 36 seconds today to either beat the Ravens or at the very least, send the game into overtime.

Jason Garrett was the hot coaching candidate who had everything the Ravens were seeking. He was a former NFL quarterback, Ivy League-educated and groomed in a football family. He was young and bright, and in just a couple of seasons as an NFL assistant, he had carved out a reputation as one of the freshest offensive minds in football. The Ravens had some recent success, a roster with defensive stars and a front office that was one of the envies of the league. It appeared to be the perfect fit, only Garrett didn't see it that way. After two visits to Baltimore and an offer to succeed Brian Billick as the coach of the Ravens following the 2007 season, Garrett opted to stay in Dallas where he was the offensive coordinator and become the assistant head coach and heir apparent to Wade Phillips.
