[quote=Ruhskins;747952]As much as I hate the Cowboys, and I do enjoy seeing them getting criticized by the media (for once), it is unfortunately early in the season and any team can turn it around. I will be much happier when they are 1-9 or 2-8 and well out of playoff contention.[/quote]

Well said.:food-smil

Re: ESPNDallas: Cowboys Have Lowered The Bar
 

I'm not really sure about the "good ol days" angle of the article. Were things really better under Parcells? They made the postseason twice, went 0-2, and failed to win the division.

Parcells contributed because he put legitimate offensive talent on the roster without a lot of high picks. But Wade has arguably contributed more by developing that first round defensive talent that was ticketed for bust-city.

You can compare their records: Parcells' "accountability" didn't bring Dallas any more wins than Wade's "aw-shucks" attitude.

The Redskins on top of the NFC East...the Cowgirls suck...it's early...but life is good. :food-smil

The Cowboys suck because Romo sucks. Romo sucks because their offensive line sucks. Their offensive line sucks because their coaching sucks. Their coaching sucks because Jerry Jones sucks. Cowboys suck.

Re: ESPNDallas: Cowboys Have Lowered The Bar
 

Jerry and the Cowboys FO pulled a classic Vinny Cerratto. Their biggest need was Offensive line and they drafted WR Dez Bryant. HA! Plus this was a draft rich and over flowing in offensive and defensive lineman. Who the hell drafts a WR in the 1st round? Stupid.
Thank god our new FO is more worried about winning then filling seats and making headlines.

[quote=CRedskinsRule;747872]Very good article. I hope no one in the Dallas organization reads it!


That actually sums up the DT vs AA debate here as well.

A side note - why is the Metrodome the nosiest place to play?[/quote]

Answer: Enclosed buildings allow the sound to rebound back into the audience whereas stadiums with no roof do not. A dome is better than an enclosed stadium, Cowgirls stadium for example, because the rounded shape rebounds sound better than in a stadium that is more square or rectangular because the sound can get caught and trapped in the corners.

Alot of people had the misconception that Parcells was better for Dallas than Phillips but the numbers prove otherwise. I still remember when Parcells drafted Julius Jones instead of Steven Jackson. Too funny. Parcells didn't want D-Ware, but JJ overrode his decision to make the pick sadly to say. With that said, I would take WP over JH as our D-Coord. anyday of the week.

Parcells turned around a culture that was seriously messed up. Much like Shanahan is trying to do here. Do you think WP would have done the same with the teams that JJ had mangled earlier in the decade? Parcells set up the team(not every player, but a solid base) that WP has managed the last few years. I tend to believe Parcells would have had them in the NFC Championship atleast once, and possibly to the SB. WP has never shown that same ability, despite his excellent regular season record.

I agree that WP would have been an excellent DC but now he is stained with cowpuke.

It just made me warm all over to read that -- you reap what you sow, the only reason that team had any degree of success is the insane amount of talent they have all over the field (I'm sorry but it's true).

Talent without discipline is like an octopus on roller skates. There's plenty of movement, but you never know if it's going to be forward, backwards, or sideways.

We were talking about teams with bandwagon fans. Sorry to break it to true fans of Duke, but they've got a lot of bandwagon fans just like the Cowgirls, Lakers, Yankees, and Notre Dame (although ND has been sucking it up a lot lately).

It's a good thing because Texas being the second largest state is most likely to have the second largest population of midgets. Everony deerves the right to sit down and order a drink.

What they need to do is the same thing they did at OSU. At certain Ohio St fan apparel stores they sell a small granite tombstone where it says Michigan: Where a rose never grows. Sell some tombstone with Dallas: Where Superbowl dreams die hard!!
