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

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."

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

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.

"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.
