graphic design made by: Austin Keith Intro In the last installment of Roundup Exploration, we reviewed the history of the top writer's position on The Roundup.

This article is part of an ongoing series titled "The Plight of Dallas Sports Teams Since 2000," where I take a look at each of the four major Dallas sports teams and reflect on their playoff struggles, ultimately investigating the causes of their woes. Already I know what you're thinking. The Mavs are the one exception to this series because...
