Ron Washington, DFW Sports Figure of the Year?

A bit off topic, but today the Rangers continue their quest towards their first World Series Title in franchise history.   Many of you grew up on Rangers baseball, so you know how special this is.   We took the Cowboys for granted as they were possibly the best football team in the 90's winning three rings and selling out every single home game along the way.   Stars won the cup in 99, and came close in 98 and 2K.   Mavs turned things around with Cuban's appearance, and have been a strong team every year, going to the finals once before choking.   Now its the Rangers time to shine.   I think Ron Washington is the most interesting and successful sports figure of the year in the DFW area.   From his backwoods way of speaking to the media, to the cocaine allegations, to the 1970's haircut, to the division title, to the pennant, the guy is just plain interesting.   Will he be able to manage a win in one final series?  

I say Rangers take this thing in 6.   they go 1-1 in Frisco, 2-1 at home, and then close it out in game 6 back in Frisco.  Your thoughts...
