Back in the 1990s, when the Dallas Cowboys made their runs at three Super Bowl victories, I remember the Cowboys faced the Philadelphia Eagles in the divisional playoffs; the first time in the 1992-1993 season (they defeated Philly 34-10) and the second time in the 1994-1995 season (they defeated Philly ...Published on: 31st December, 2009
Yes, the Dallas Cowboys are in the playoffs, but this game against the Philadelphia Eagles has huge ramifications. If Dallas wins, they'll go from second place in the NFC East to the winner of the NFC East. The Cowboys and Chickens would have identical 4-2 and 9-3 divisional and conference records, with ...Published on: 28th December, 2009
Somewhere, perhaps in Dallas, Irving, Fort Worth, Arlington, or in my hometown of Beeville, Texas (90 miles southeast of San Antonio on Highway 181 for non-Texans), there are probably diehard Dallas Cowboy fans lining up in eager anticipation to purchase No. 4 jerseys. No, Brett Favre's not joining the 'Boys. Instead, ...Published on: 25th December, 2009
You know EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Years and years ago, back in the decade of Big Hair and Parachute Pants, Janet Jackson had a huge hit with "What Have You Done For Me Lately?" That's the reason why the Dallas Cowboys are no longer the employer for placekicker Nick Folk. Yes, that ...Published on: 30th July, 2009
[Richard spends five minutes laughing, regains composure, sighs and returns to the keyboard] Uh, no. Absolutely, 100 percent not. To paraphrase a popular 1960s song (whose title I forget, but I’m pretty sure it wasn’t the Rolling Stones), “No no no no no no no no no no no!” If I were speaking Mandarin ...Published on: 22nd July, 2009
Dog fighting is morally reprehensible, and those who take part in such events are sick and need help. Anyone who trains a dog to fight other dogs and kills such a dog if it's not doing a good enough job of killing other jobs is truly a sick person. But, so ...Published on: 14th July, 2009
I get this strange feeling Jessica Simpson will be seen wearing Washington Redskin, New York Giant, and Philadelphia Eagle jerseys. You know what they say: "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned." That's because she and Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo have apparently called it quits. Romo is now living a ...Published on: 13th July, 2009
If I were Wade Phillips, I’d be watching my back this season. I suspect Bum Phillips’ son could have a short-lived career as the head coach of America’s Team if they don't make the playoffs or if they get snuffed out quickly. Or if he cracks a joke about owner Jerry Jones’ ...Published on: 9th July, 2009
I'll never forget that draft back in 2001 when the Dallas Cowboys made Quincy Carter their first pick (second round, 53rd overall). I immediately asked my lovely wife, Jennifer, "Who on earth is Quincy Carter?!" Jennifer responded: "Don't look at me! You know I don't like football!" (It could be worse: Jenn could ...Published on: 9th July, 2009
Attention, Jerry Jones, owner/general manager/president/promoter/aspiring head coach of the Dallas Cowboys: Look into my eyes. Deeper and deeper and deeper. Repeat after me: "I, Jerry Jones, will do whatever it takes to sign veteran wide receiver Marvin Harrison." Harrison worked with Peyton Manning all those years, so you know he has to be good. Other ...
