The 2008 Dallas Cowboys road to the Super Bowl....

this is some fucking bullshit... i can't believe all these injuries happening. i'm starting to think it's the players who are fucking bitches. i'm glad i'm not the coach... i wouldn't be one nice fucker. i would like purposely not brush my teeth for an entire week and eat nothing but fish and coffee... and bitch right in front of their noses for being the bitches that they are. and if they even make any hint or suggestion that my breath stinks or my abnoxious rantings and shouts are bothering them i would increase their drills. these fuckers make millions of dollars... the least they can do is just play.

i'd understand if it were just one or two players.... but come on it's almost their entire roster. i'm surprised terrel owens hasn't been injured with all the defensive covering he's been getting.

That's what ya get for players that don't hit in training camp....Pussies.

Nice win today!! And on the very day that a Dallas Morning News writer wrote a column talking about TO was done and it was time to stop trying to get him the ball.

Not bad today....I'll take it, gotta get the running game going better. Funny how that other teams thread has gone silent.

SF was just not giving up the run today were they?

The defense was solid, but I am not sure if that was a product of who they were playing. Although, SF has been a lot better lately. At times, they looked overwhelmed by the pass rush though. And that safety could not have been better timing.

The other team - um, wow. Over.

they did what they needed to do and that is win. I will take a "done" T.O. anyday. Looked like the D took some plays off, and the O took a little while to get in sync, but nice win and now we only have to wait 4 days to see them again. 2 down, 5 to go.
I asked a guy I coach little league with if he wants to get together for the Philliy game and he was like ...haha not this year. He doesn't really talk too much shit, though.

bring on the seahawks.....anyone want a Dallas Julius Jones jersey? I was going to take off the "j" and make a pacman jersey, but uh, changed my mind

not to get too ahead of ourselves, cause the seahawks played well against the redskins... i'm just hoping the cowboys beat them even more convincingly. and i'll be eating turkey while it's happening!!!

it's the steelers game i'm looking more foward to though.

but oh yes... once your team starts playing better the shit talkers always quit and leave. i wish they could stick around... win or lose. i do.

Nice win on Thanksgiving against a crappy team. The real test is the next game.

Side note: Took my 10 year old son to his first Cowboys game today. While wife and daughter were getting ready to go to grandma's he was asking why we weren't going with them. Told him I had a surprise. So we got in the car and drove to Texas Staduim instead. He was just beside himself. It was so much fun. We had great seats (won them on Ebay just this morning) and he just smiled the whole time. We went to grandma's for dinner after. Great, great day. I hope he remembers for a long time.
