It’s a good to be a Dallas sports fan, especially since Bill Parcells was hired to fix the football team. The Mavericks have the best record in the NBA at 29-5 and the Stars lead the NHL with 59 points. No city has ever won NBA and NHL titles in the same season, but teams from the same city have reached the championship series seven times, most recently in 1994.
