Jerry Jones Is Angry


Jerry Jones is not happy how the season ended.  But who is?  “Well, I can tell you that change is necessary at 8-8,” said Owner/GM Jerry Jones.  Click here for the Dallas Morning News article.

Does this mean we will see a change at the GM position?  Stay tune....

Playoff Bound Cowboys?

Is it too soon to say the Dallas Cowboys are playoffs bound?

After beating the Eagles 38-23 in Philly, the Cowboys are looking at a favorable schedule the rest of the way.  It is possible a 9-7 Cowboys team could win the division and go to the playoffs this year.  I know I know, someone check my blue and silver pipe for some of that new Denver Mile High Wacky Tabacky, but look at the rest of the schedule.  Dallas could end up 5-2 the last 7 games of the season.

Week 11 Cleveland (2-7) at Dallas
Week 12 Washington (3-6) at Dallas
Week 13 Phildelphia (3-6) at Dallas
Week 14 Cincinnati (4-5) in Cincinnati
Week 15 Pittsburgh (5-3) at Dallas
Week 16 New Orleans (4-5) at Dallas
Week 17 Washington (3-6) in Washington

The current division leaders, 6-4 NY Giants have a real tough road ahead of them the last 6 games.  Their schedule proposes a real possibility of going 3-3 the last 6 games.

Week 11 Bye
Week 12 Green Bay (6-3)
Week 13 at Washington (3-6)
Week 14 New Orleans (4-5)
Week 15 at Atlanta (8-1)
Week 16 at Baltimore (7-2)
Week 17 Philadelphia (3-6)

5 out of the last 7 games are at Cowboys Stadium, so Cowboys Fans who are lucky enough to go to the games, please don't wait for an email from Jerry asking you to get loud.  Make some noise!  It is almost Christmas time, let your Blue and Silver Balls hang out!

A quick note to Jerry, you should consider giving some seats away to some rowdy True Blue fans who are watching the game at a bar, home, or in their garage (like me)!  We may not spend hundreds of dollars on some seats, but we lose our voices every Cowboy game!

Again, is it too soon to say the Dallas Cowboys are playoffs bound?

Sunday Morning Thoughts of Andres: Real Football

The NFL season is fast approaching and watching Dallas Cowboy's Football is how I like to spend my Sundays. Waiting for the season to start has me thinking about being a kid and loving football.

When I was a kid, (starting a sentence this way is the first sign that I am officially old) I used to play football in the street at my aunt's house. Actually on the concrete and our timeouts were when the cars would come driving down the road and half time was when Tia Lucy said lunch was ready. We dived for catches on the concrete and would slide out of bounds on the gravel. I still missing skin from my elbow and knees. We would put vicious hits on whatever receiver was dumb enough to leap in the air for a catch. There were no roofs and air conditioning units keeping you cool when the other unit is on the field. In fact, there was no other unit, you played offense and defense and everybody who wanted to play was on the field the whole game.

The "football" we are watching now is the wussifcation of the game. Punting and Fieldgoals? In real football you don't kick, you go for it on 4th down every time. These players are wearing pads and helmets with cushion to avoid concussions so they can prolong their career. When we played, we left it all on the line and didn't worry about being able to play next season. They also have this silly rule about pass interference . Pass interference? For us pass interference was when the quarterback throw the ball too high and it got stuck in the oak tree hanging over the street. I am not going to get started on "Late Hits" on the quarterback.

All I am saying is real football players play on concrete, and not on a football field with pads.

An old school football warrior,
Andres
