I just can't seem to rip the Cowboys these days when we are 4-9 and staring 4-12 right in the face. It just serves no point. I respect how they have built their team. Despite the bad game Sun. night they have done a real nice job building a team of very good young players. Many of them were drafted. That is what pisses me off most. That Dallas drafted good young players and we get over priced, over paid free agents.

You're high. Most of Dallas' drafted young talent is on defense, where we aren't spending that much money on "over paid free agents".

What part of T-O, Sherry Glenn, and Deadslow sound like good young drafted players to you? Okay, so they drafted Julius Jones. Fine, we drafted Ladell Betts, and guess what, they're having nearly statistically identical years despite Ladell having 7 fewer starts. Oh, and Ladell's averaging half a yard more per carry. Next.

Oh right, Jason Witten. Good call. 600 yards and a TD this year. If only we had a guy who could do that!! Chris Cooley only has 528 yards on the season. Oh wait, but 5 TD's. Next.

Romo? Fine, sure, but if Bledsoe hadn't been so awful he would never have seen the light of day, and realistically we have no idea whether he's going to be decent or suck. Started off hot, sucks lately. *Shrug*. By the way, Tony Romo's passer rating in December: 58.4. Jason Campbell's passer rating in December: 54.6.

We've got more drafted young talent (Dock, Jansen, and Samuels) on the O-Line than they do (Gurode and Flozell Adams were both drafted, but Adams is like 140 years old), and assuming some of our recent projects like McIntosh and Golston step up and start next year, we could have 5 drafted Redskins on the starting D (Marshall, Golston, McIntosh, Taylor, and Rogers). The Cowboys have 6 (Davis, Williams, James, Ware, Spears, and Canty)

So, yeah. We really suck at drafting and the Cowboys are awesome.
