We are the Mavericks. We research and write for Rowdy’s Reviews with Rowdy’s mentorship, good sense, and open mind. We have productive discussions that make all we do better.
The Mavericks is an interesting bunch of individualistic and independent thinkers who come from a wonderful array of backgrounds. We are also from different generations and different life experiences, but one thing we all share in common is a quick sense of humor and analytical and real-world minds that are all pretty important when making recommendations to folks like you who are looking for good advice and trustworthy help.
We named ourselves – the name, Maverick, was a really good fit.
Maverick can be a first name or a last name. It actually is also a noun that was used to refer to an unbranded range animal like horses or other critters. Samuel Maverick, we discovered, coined the word, maverick, because he did not brand his livestock. He named the practice of not branding after himself. Now there’s a little piece of trivia to ponder over. Tuck that one under your hat.
Here are some other interesting and recognizable uses of the name, Maverick:
The top box office earner for 2022 was the blockbuster movie “Top Gun: Maverick,” starring Tom Cruise. It earned about $1.5 billion worldwide and became the highest ticket sales take in Tom Cruise’s career. Our group saw “Top Gun: Maverick” an average of 4 times each – what an addictive cinematic G-force rush it was – couldn’t get enough ... Gotta watch it on the big screen, preferably IMAX, though.
The Ford Maverick is a compact pickup truck that evolved from a 1970 compact car. We love our trucks for all the things we can haul – for work and for play. A 80” TV fits easier in the back of a truck than it does in the trunk of a 4-door sedan.
The Dallas Mavericks is a professional NBA team owned by luminary billionaire Mark Cuban. To date, they have bragging rights to one championship. Championship hardware and rings are tough to come by in this uber competitive sport.
The Maverick City Music Four were the 2022 Grammy Award winners in the Contemporary Christian Music category. The group has only been together for a few years and have many years to develop their brand. Interesting comparison: Elvis, “King of Rock and Roll,” won three Grammys and one was for his gospel music . . . We will never forget his screaming fans or his epic movies.
Lastly, let us mention Maverick Entertainment Company formerly owned and operated by Warner Music Group. The company was founded in 1992 by Madonna and others and closed its doors in 2009. A lot of breakthrough Platinum tunes were recorded by that legendary diva.
We hope you felt right at home as we took you on a little name tour. We get nostalgic, but why not, a name shapes who and what a person becomes. And we are darn proud of ours.
