The Mavs announced their pre-season schedule.  Jackson fans from Ohio State
and Kidd fans from the bay area miss out this year, but Mashburn fans from
Kentucky and Popeye fans from Murray State and Tennessee (Popeye grew up
in Tennessee) get a game.  All games, of course, dependent on the players'
dispute being settled in time.
