Last Game At Texas Stadium

[jbcjr14]

I fly over that stadium all the time going through DFW airport and EVERYTIME, I think about how I would like to urinate from about 10,000 feet right into that piece of shit!

If you look at the replay of the final Ravens TD, you can see a Cowboy cheerleader slam her pom-poms in digust.

What a thing of pure beauty.

Do you really think that their cheerleaders are smark enough to realize that was not a goog play for Dallas.

Nah. It got to the point where it just became funny.

This season has been so damn frustrating to watch this year. They haven't played one complete game this year, and they're still 9-6. Inconsistencies have plagued this team from the beginning.

Penalties. Turnovers. Missed opportunities. All speak of an undisciplined team. That reflects back at the head coach.

I think the thing that's not been talked about is how poor Jason Garrett's performance has been this year. I mean, you have Romo, and even though he hasn't done much to prove himself in big games, is still a premier QB. They have had 3 (!!!!!) RB's who have proved to be more than capable this year. You have arguably the best TE in the league. You have a future HoF'er at WR, and another who has the potential to be one as well.

You have an O-Line who has done a great job of protecting Romo and providing running lanes for Barber.

With all of that talent, Garrett has failed to design an offense that can beat even the most mediocre of defenses.

Wade will be fired. But this notion that Garrett is the heir apparent is absolutely stupid.

I went to the Giants game last week, and thought I saw a team finally secure its signature win and propel them into the playoffs. I instead see a team that's too stupid do give a damn.

I almost want to see them miss the playoffs. Even if they win the WC, I don't see them beating Carolina or the Giants on the road. This team is too spineless to make a run the Giants did last year.

With all that being said, please beat the Eagles.

I went to Texas Stadium last year & very glad I did, although we lost to the pokes in that game. It is ugly on the outside, but very cool inside. It seems a bit surreal even after watching it on tv for years.

I have to say I will miss it. It's a part of nfl history & the greatest rivalry in sports. I miss RFK dearly as well & the atmosphere the Skins had there in better times. Just like when we left RFK, Dallas is entering into a new era of mgmt. Word is that people in Dallas are already upset about the prices going up. It will likely only get worse.

Not to mention, it's awfully difficult to get 90,000 people involved in a game. We've seen this at fedex, there are too many boxes, too many drunks, lines are long, etc. It all amounts to reducing home field advantage. That's the real plus w/the new stadium for us Skins fans. I'm glad Dallas will now be dealing w/these growing pains like we've had to, but overall places like Texas Stadium & RFK were so much better of a game experience.

The Georgia Dome is actually kind of similar. On the outside and on TV it looks horrible but when you actually go there you think "wow, this place looks pretty cool." I wonder if Texas stadium is the same way, but I still stand by when I say I'm glad they're getting a new stadium.

According to Mort, Wade Phillips is safe. He said he got the word directly from Jerry Jones. For what it's worth.

Said Ravens RB Willis McGahee, “It wasn’t a homecoming game. It was more like a mock funeral. We spoiled their day. It was probably the best concert ever in Irving, Texas.”

Ravens OL, I'm telling you peeps!

[budw38]

Would it not be a perfect start in 09 to have the Washington Redskins spank the cowpoops in the new stadium next September ?

Everytime I flew over Dallas we would go over Texas Stadium and I would always give them the finger and a quiet f@#$ you. Childish yes, but it made me feel better :-)

I don't think you can blame that on JJ. He inherited the stadium along with the team and the way its designed limits the sun the field gets so growning grass would not be that easy. The cardnals new stadium the field is on a track and they can roll it out of the stadium so it gets plenty of sun and water. Come game day it rolls back into the stadium.

Hate to admit it but I will miss it. Great games played there and a rich history. I did however enjoy watching them lose that last one. But I'll miss that misarable place. Still miss RFK! Man I must be getting old!

Greatest memory at Texas Stadium = Scott Brunell torching the Dallas secondary with two bombs to Moss with 3 min. left in 2005.

#21 lighting up Crayton to secure the win is also priceless! RIP
