Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

Apparently Rock Cartwright celebrated after the game on Dallas' mid-field star. I didn't see it, but I wish Rock hadn't done that. It's great to beat Dallas, and the Cowboy hater in me kinda smirks when I think of a Redskin dancing on the star, but I'm all about winning AND losing with class. I guess Tank Johnson wasn't too happy about it.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I'm sure Dallas fans will quickly forget how their own T.O. did the same thing.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

He should have given the Stadium an upper-decker.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I love it. These teams are supposed to not like each other.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

Was he dancing? From the link, it seemed as though he just stood on it. Who cares, it was after the game. Agree with 724sf, he should have laid a cleveland steamer on that thing.

I'm just playing devil's advocate. Think about how disgusted we'd be if a Cowboy did that at FedEx. We'd be screaming about how classless they are, etc etc.

Anyway, that said, F dallas and I'm so happy we shamed them in their house. What a great send off for us at Texas Stadium.

A big thank you to Dallas for being the cockiest team on earth. Eat humble pie you assholes.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I'm surprised Tank didn't reach for a gun.

WOW! I LOVE the attitude BB, but a steamer? Anyway F stank my jonson, he can be offendeded by anything he wants. It all comes down to this: HAIL TO THE REDSKINS! playing the last time they meet in their shitty little house!

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

HAIL BROTHERS! HAIL! Uh ,excuse me, could you please pass the kool aid?

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I look at it this way. It wasn't necessary, and sure you can call it classless, but it's also adding up the intensity of the rivalry. I think the Cowboys-Redskins rivalry has been gaining some steam in recent years, and this is only going to add to it.

And besides, if it is such a big deal, why aren't they still pissed at T.O. for doing it?

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

this is funny... a team with tank johnson, TO and pac man jones calls us classless. wtf???

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I hate Dallas with a passion, but I don't care for the celebration.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

And yes, if you are going to call us classless, shouldn't you let a guy who has credibility in that area do it? You already know that people aren't gonna let such an upstanding role model do it without calling him out on that.

I know, give me a break

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

On a more humble, (sober), note: it was a great game. Zorn and co. did a wonderful job of game planning and the team executing. We held on to the tigers tail and didn't get eaten, (thats as much as a complement as dalASS is getting today). God Bless The Skins! I'll be happy all week talking about this one, and collecting my money.

Well, I think to this point Tank is the only one who sounded off about it, and he wasn't on Dallas or Philly when TO did it a while ago as an Eagle.

Memo to tank: When you get busted and serve time in prison for what looked a lot like arms-dealing, you have to wait a while before you can call anyone "classless."

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I love it... to bad he didn't take a shit on that limp star in front of the whole country! If they where a better team than we where he wouldn't have had so much to celebrate about! But as shown tonight they aren't better, WE ARE. Can't wait till they come to DC 11/16, to get there ass beat again!

FCK DALLAS AND THOSE BUNCH OF WINNY ASS CRY BABIES!

were, were, and whiney. No offense brother , I'm drunk, but you are killing me.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

Remember the Dallas team that threw a wreath into the Redskins locker room after they won...Well, it's payback time. Besides, everyone was ready to annoint the Cowboys Superbowl winners this year. Nobody gave the 'Skins a chance today, so I thoroughly enjoyed the game.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

Payback for the wreath? I love it. Tank Johnson should just shut up.

It was rhetorical. I'm sure Tank could care less what people think of him. And when T.O. did it he was with S.F., I'm not sure he did that when he was with the Eagles.

Oh the irony, right? If he did 'celebrate' on the star, I'd rather take a higher road than that, but if they beat us there'd be nothing to celebrate so, Rock on!

Oh that's right. Doesn't change the point of my post though.

No killing, just no time for spell check as apparently you got the message.......and you clearly didn't do much of a job with your own spell check there mistro, you damn drunk...LOL

Unless youn is a new word...? Although I really don't care THE SKINS BEAT DALLAS IN CASE YOU FORGOT! :spank:

Class is overrated.

People who cite class when they lose are basically saying their feelings are hurt because they lost.

They need to get over it and see a shrink if their hurt feelings don't go away.

Put the focus on the win and none of the other insignificant distractions like these. The only fingerpointing should be toward the scoreboard.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I have no problem with it. Dallas is an arrogant org with arrogant fans. They deserve it.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

Maybe Rock just wanted his picture taken. It was a big moment. I have no respect for Tank Johnson or the cowgirls in general anyway. I damn sure don't have any respect for that star.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

Maybe Rock was just telling Cowboy fans that we are the "real America's team". After all we are from the "Nations capital".

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

"I went to say hello to everybody, and he got mad that I stood at the middle of the star. It is what it is. I'm past it. I'm not worried about it. I think they're just mad that we came in and got a win today. It's part of the game. You win some, you lose some." -------quote from Rock

Am I missing something? He went to the center of the field. I didn't see anything about him dancing on the star or doing anything disrespectful.

To me it just seems like the same ole thing. Win or lose the Cowboys always have something to whine about.

Not to sure how many people on here would know what the "upper decker" is, but I have the same kind of mind as you my friend......that would have been classy.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I think this should clear it up a bit:

[QUOTE][B]Postgame altercation[/B]

Redskins running back Rock Cartwright said he and Cowboys defensive tackle Tank Johnson had spent much of the evening jawing back and forth. But as the Redskins were kneeling on the ball at the end of the game, [B]Cartwright said he stood at midfield and gazed through the iconic hole in the roof of Texas Stadium.[/B]

Johnson, who's is his second year with the Cowboys, apparently thought Cartwright was attempting to evoke memories of T.O. standing on the star several years ago as a 49er. After the final snap, Johnson raced over and shouted, "Don't disrespect the star."

I'm thinking Johnson may have more important things to deal with after his defense gave up 161 rushing yards. Some of you might recall Phillips saying recently that "no one runs on the Dallas Cowboys."

Well, make that almost no one.

I know right....Best quote I've ever heard right there...

Two guys on the Verge of getting locked up

and the other with a rep around the league that gets him called alot of names

Look in the mirror Dallass Crybitches

Rock was just getting one last glance through the top of the Stadium come on its not everyday you get to play in the NFL and its not everyday that you get to stand in the middle of texas stadium let alone a winner. Seriously I think Rock was just admiring the history.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

[quote=GMScud;482945]Oh that's right. Doesn't change the point of my post though.[/quote]

Yeah I know, I see your point. Like I said I don't mind because it's only going to add to the rivalry.

And to be honest I'm not even sure if he really disrespected the star at all. In a story on ESPN.com, it said that he was standing in the middle of the star looking up through the roof, and that Tank Johnson saw it and assumed he was intentionally disrespecting the star. I'd have to see it to know the truth, maybe he was trying to pull a T.O. or maybe it was unintentional.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

I wish he had pooped on it.

Re: Thoughts on Rock's Celebration
 

Don't put much stock into this, since it came from Tank Johnson.

Good for Rock. I wish he'd spit on it.

That's what I heard as well on the Monday Morning QB on 980 am.
No dancing, just standing and gazing up through the roof. If your name is "Tank", how intelligent do you imagine that is?
