I would be, but my 7 day off rotation luckily fell right between Christmas and New Year's.

I'm a die-hard Cowboys fan so I can't give up on them. That game yesterday almost made me sick to the stomach. I've never seen so many things go wrong for one team in one game. The Lions could have gotten their one win against us last night.

There needs to be a change from the top for next season. Jason Garrett needs to go back to what he was doing last year... being aggressive and not being scared to move the ball around.

Crap I could type forever on this.

The problem is the team factor. They do not play, act, coach, or do anything like/as a TEAM. Football is a very team reliant sport, not an individualist. They have not played like a team since at least last regular season. Too many big shots, not enough contribution.

The sports talk shows were crazy this morning though..

They all need to quit

I do not watch football that much but as soon as the game started you could tell that the Eagles wanted to win it more than the Cowboys... and as soon as things started to go down hill everyone just gave up.

All I have to say is Thank GOD we have a good kicker because those were the only points we received.

Nick Folk always earns his money.

The lack of a "team mentality" isn't just because there are too many stars. You can have all those stars and still be the elite. The problem is the lack of leadership. Jerry Jones keeps hiring coaches who he knows he can walk on. Until he lets his ego take backseat and hires another Jimmy Johnson this is what we'll deal with.

It would have to be somewhere with a decent amount of parking.


Last thursday I went to Hooters in Plano and there was a silver Z with duck tape holding the back bumper on, any takers?

Even though that is very true about Jerry Jones, I don't think that's the main problem. He had Parcells here who didn't win very much either, but nevertheless set things up for Wade Phillips. I think the problem is Phillips and the player's distractions. Phillips is too light on the players and not much of a disciplinarian. Parcells was too much of a disciplinarian. I think we need a coach in between these two extremes. As for the players, we all know the countless distractions that occured this season, all the injuries, and basically no time to gel. They were just thrown into the mentality of "You have to win now, Super Bowl or bust." I think that the pressure weighed on a lot of them surmounting its peak after each week, and they just couldn't perform (AGAIN). They need to develop better team chemistry and have a coach that will discipline them and crack jokes with them during the proper times. That being said, they BETTER win and make the playoffs next year in their stadium lol.
