what he said

Ta-Nehisi that is.

Emmitt Smith roast=teh funny

How did I miss this? h/t Ta-Nehisi (read his blog!)

NFL free agancy begins. The Native Americans get Haynesworth and that sucks for us Cowboy fans.

what a fucking waste

17 weeks and what happens?  The Cowboys take a giant shit on the field.   This was embarrassing. Genius Jerry says that he is not going to change the coaching staff. WTF?  I hate the cowboys right now. Really.

Now the Phillies have beat the Mets the last two years and now the Eagles smash the Cowboys. Upon further review I hate Philadelphia and everything that godforsaken city stands for, that's all.

Update: As P Points out in comments I am going to see the Jazz play Philly tonight.  DIE, SIXERS, DIE!!!1?11!!!!!

Cowboys-Giants game sets record

Most viewers ever for Sunday night football.  Oh yeah... The Cowboys won bitches.

fearless NFL predicitions

The Cowboys will beat the Giants this week. The Carolina Panthers will win the Super Bowl. Write it down.

Cowboys' December support group: part deux

The awesomeness never stops. Now T.O. and Romo are fighting apparently. Good times Cowboys' fans, good times.

Update: It is even worse than first reported. The defense backs Owens and the coaches and owner say "Its all good." UGH!

Cowboy's December support group:part one

Jerry Jones "surprised" Barber did not play. WTF?

Witten takes the blame. Which is exactly what I said as the play happened.

Yes, its true the Cowboys are trying to kill me.  It almost feels inevitable that we will fade in December now.  Oh well, it is what it is.  Hopefully, I'll feel better as the week goes on.

Romo for MVP

The case is made by self-described romo-sexual at Cold Hard Football Facts.

happy thanksgiving go Cowboys

that is all.

riding the night train...

or showing my growing man crush on Ta-Nehisi Coates.

Simply the best.  

Update: in honor of Chinese Democracy.

on being a cowboys fan

Coates is a much better writer than I am and expresses this much more effectively than I could.  Read the the whole thing. But this stands out.

Anyway, as any Cowboy fan can attest, being a Dallas fan in the 80s may have been the worst possible decade to pledge. The Cowboys were two things in 80s--really awful, or a game away from the Super Bowl.  I think we went to three straight NFC championships--and lost. Shit was rough. Imagine being a six-year old kid when "The Catch" happened. But I've been there for it all--for Hogeboom, for Landry brining Ed Jones back out because of fans, for Jerry firing the whole lot of everyone. That 92 game against the 49ers was such great payback--the 49ers ruined my childhood, and to beat them in that way had me floating for a week. The thing is this--I'm old school like Dexter Clinkscales, Rafael Septien, and Tony Hill. How can I switch now? 

Tony Romo: Mensch

Romo took a homeless guy to the movies. Which led to this text exchange between me and BBA.

BBA: Yo did happy homo n jessica break up cause i heard he is dating some homeless guy named doc...

Me: Fuck you!

cheer for injuries or the terrorists will win

Big Daddy Drew at Deadspin explains why cheering for injuries is a good thing.  

Now, I know many people find the idea of cheering for injuries tasteless, and offensive, and inhumane, and disgusting. But those people are WRONG. Wrong as can be. Cheering injuries is the noblest thing a person can do. It’s true!

You see, when I cheer for injuries, I’m not doing it because I’m a bad person. Far from it. I cheer for injuries because I CARE. I think a good, solid injury builds character. Think about Tom Brady’s life up to this point. He’s had it all: hot model girlfriend, tons of money, three Super Bowl rings. What kind of adversity has he faced up to this point? Not a lot. Well, I’m not shallow like all these Boston fans who just want Brady to stay healthy and keep winning. I want Brady to GROW as a person. I want him to learn. I want him to be a better man. And there’s no better way for him to do that than to have his knee viciously torn asunder.

Don’t you see how that makes sense?

....And remember, fans like me are only rooting for injuries, and not full-blown DEATH. I think that shows our true grace, our capacity for mercy. I think it's very classy. It makes us more human to hope Tom Brady gets his leg sheared right off. Look at him clutching his knee like a little girl in that photo. What a bitch.

...So, to you people out there who are drinking hard and clapping deliriously at the pain and misfortune of others, I salute you. You people are real Americans. You’re the true class acts in sports, and don’t ever let some asshole tell you differently.

HAHA!

brady done

Tom Brady out for year.  Fantasy football people are crying in their beer.

my revised superbowl pick.

Cowboys over Steelers.
