The Front Three, of the Dallas ” D “

The Front Three, of the Dallas ” D “

The Cowboys did everything they could to make significant repairs to the Defense that ended up costing them 5 games at the end of the 2011 season. Forcing them to miss the playoffs, and allowing the New York Giants to move forward, as they captured the world championship a month later. When free agency came around in March, [...]

Thoughts And Prayers To Junior Seau And his Family From This Cowboys Fan

Thoughts And Prayers To Junior Seau And his Family From This Cowboys Fan

It is easy to say that regardless of what team you root for that you knew who Junior Seau was. It’s also not too much of a stretch that most of you considered him one of the best linebackers of his or any generation. This man is a sure-fire NFL Hall of Famer, posthumously now. Terrible, terrible, terrible tragedy. He will be missed [...]

Jerry and Jimmy: The Next Generation

Jerry and Jimmy: The Next Generation

Last night as I was reeling from doing live switching for Korean professional soccer, I was talking with one of my co-workers about how Stephen Jones and Jason Garrett have replaced Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson. my de

Now, like I had to do with him, let me give a foreword stating I’m not comparing their successes nor am I stating they [...]

Tony Romo: Love Him or Hate Him?

Tony Romo: Love Him or Hate Him?

Every season as a Cowboys fan I hear some horrible things said about Tony Romo. The worst part is that most of those words come from other Cowboys fans. How can a loyal fan hate a player that came in to this league undrafted? I could understand if he played like a undrafted player, but he doesn’t. Tony Romo is the best undrafted football t[...]

Best Backs In Cowboy’s History, Can History Be Repeated?

Best Backs In Cowboy’s History, Can History Be Repeated?

The Dallas Cowboys have had some big names in their back field. When we look back, you’ll hear names like Herschel Walker, Don Perkins, and Calvin Hill. The ones I like to consider the “Best” are based on three categories: Length of career, production, and Super Bowl success. Since the Dallas Cowboys have three eras of Super Bowl success [...]

The Landry Hat: Possible Dallas Cowboys Draft Pick: Courtney Upshaw

The Landry Hat: Possible Dallas Cowboys Draft Pick: Courtney Upshaw

Dallas Cowboys-related Tweet of the Week: @RossTuckerNFL “Isn’t the performance of the Redskins/Cowboys last 2 seasons enough evidence that no real competitive edge was gained?” Unfortunately, most of the news going on about the Cowboys this week is Jerry Jones’ (surprise) grievance file. If you don’t want to talk about that, other recent Cowboys news [...]

The Final Word From The Super Bowl

The Final Word From The Super Bowl

I tried to convince myself that I didn’t care about the Super Bowl. I wrote an article about how much I hated this postseason. I didn’t even watch the entire first quarter because I was antiquing with my girlfriend (bought a nice new kitchen table, thank you very much). But in the end, the massive football fan in me couldn’t resist watching the last football game [...]

Draft Dodging: Who Should the Dallas Cowboys Take in the Draft?

Draft Dodging: Who Should the Dallas Cowboys Take in the Draft?

As Thursday, April 26th rapidly approaches, Dallas Cowboys fans are left waiting and wondering who in the heck Jason Garrett and Jerry Jones are going to select with our first round pick in the NFL Draft. The common talk is that the Cows need to snag a corner back and they need to get one who can make an immediate impact [...]

Dallas Cowboys Pick a Cornerback

Dallas Cowboys Pick a Cornerback

I am not sure why I have spent the past few hours listening to readings of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven” on YouTube. Maybe I like poetry. Perhaps I share a spiritual bond with a fellow former West Pointer who walked the Long Gray Line many years before I did. Maybe the raven speaks to me as well. We, Cowboys fans, have lost our Lenore. The dynasties of old are Nevermore to return to Dallas. We must build new ones or we will be left to be tortured [...]

What Will Jerry Jones do with the Dallas Cowboys first Draft Picks?

What Will Jerry Jones do with the Dallas Cowboys first Draft Picks?

It won’t be long before we will be subjected to an endless barrage of continuously changing mock-drafts.  In anticipation of the mock draft season, we give you this week’s fan question: Drew Knight, Ontario,Canada:  I know it is difficult to predict the draft this early, most draft projections are not finished and it always depends [...]
