Rams 30, Cowboys 22. I remember the days of Roger Staubach, Too Tall Jones, and Hollywood Henderson. Those Cowboys went to the Superbowl on a regular basis. The great Danny White took the team to three NFC Conference Games. Things went downhill from there, but even during the last few years of Tom Landry’s reign, his teams still often lost by a field goal or less. There was always hope that they could make one more play. Then there was the Jimmy Johnson juggernaut whose game plan was to score 40 points in the first half and protect the lead.…

It’s All About You, Jerry, Isn’t It?
The Annual Dallas Cowboys Rant. Kyle Orton Plays Like a $100 Million Dollar Quarterback. Much like regular Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, Kyle Orton did a great job of raising fans hopes only to dash them to the ground with a game ending interception. This was another game where it looked like the Cowboys had a chance to win it, but as they have so often in the past few years, they were able snatch defeat from the jaws of victory once more. To be honest, my passion for the Dallas Cowboys isn’t what it was a few years back.…
The Legacy of Jerry Jones:LOSER
Annual Dallas Cowboys rant. The Dallas Cowboys had a shot at winning the last game of the regular season against the Washington Redskins. There was a chance for one of those world famous Dallas Cowboy Comebacks in the closing minutes-but those hopes were dashed with a Tony Romo interception that lead to a Redskins touchdown to seal the game. I was listening to one of the talk radio stations after the game. A fan called in to say that the Cowboys should fire Tony Romo and that Jerry Jones should come to his senses and hire a General Manager. This…
The Annual Dallas Cowboys Rant
What’s wrong with the Dallas Cowboys? Owner Jerry Jones. It’s been the tradition on local talk radio to call for the head of Jerry Jones after the final loss of the season. But yesterday the usual rabble rousers were replaced by some college football game, so I had to listen to another sports talk station. These two guys wanted to talk trash about the Cowboys, but they set some ground rules, no talk about Jerry Jones. Then they cut off everyone who called in and I changed the station. The facts of the matter are clear enough, the only way…
The Curse of Jerry Jones Continues
The Dallas Cowboys loose to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings 24-21. Jerry Jones was a nobody Billionaire from Arkansas when he decided he wanted to be a Celebrity and have an International Spotlight in the News. So he bought the Dallas Cowboys football team. He made a world of enemies out of the Dallas Cowboy fanbase right off the bat by firing living legend Tom Landry so he could hire his college buddy Jimmy Johnson. Hiring Jimmy Johnson was the only smart thing Jerry Jones ever did. Jimmy Johnson was a football guy and pretty much ran the show…
