With the Christmas season upon us, I feel it’s only fitting for me to give a special holiday shoutout to my favorite sports network, ESPN.    Now, most of you know that I’m a huge supporter of ESPN.  Let’s be real.  These people don’t care that Dallas has run away with their division.  They don’t care that Dallas has clinched a first round bye for the first time since 1995.  No, they would rather antagonize to see what kind of [...]

I am truly at a loss for words when I see what I saw on NFL Live this afternoon.  I’m sure we’ve all seen it already.  Keyshawn Johnson, the former "accomplished" NFL receiver, took unjustified shots at Terrell Owens for some extremely general comments he made about Bill Parcells.  After being blindsided by Keyshawn’s ridiculous comments, Terrell Owens defended himself and his team.  But already, TO is being made out by ESPN to be a [...]

If anyone would have told me that Greg Ellis, entering week 14, would be leading the team with 10.5 sacks, ahead of sack master Demarcus Ware, I would have looked at you like you shot my mother. The Greg Ellis that suffered a season-ending ruptured Achilles the year before?  The Greg Ellis that stirred up trouble about his contract?  The Greg Ellis that was absent the first three weeks of the season, still rehabbing his [...]

The first play of the game was a good summary for the night the Dallas Cowboys had at Lincoln Financial Field.  Marcus Spears put a lick on Donovan McNabb, causing him to fumble, which was recovered by Bradie James.  Julius Jones strolled into the endzone but a few plays later, setting the tone for the night.  The storyline of the night though, quite certainly could have been Mr. Terrell Owens.  The boo-birds were out early at the Linc, most being [...]

I think I speak for legions of Cowboys fans when I say, what a statement the Boys made in front of a nationally televised audience on Monday Night.  As my brother and I sat arms-length from the television with our hands firmly folded watching Tony Romo engineer the game-winning field goal drive, there was no doubt in my mind that my Cowboys were going to pull off a miracle.  The thought of turning off the game after Tony Romo threw his fifth [...]

As we enter week 3 of the 2007-2008 NFL season, one thing has caught the attention of Cowboys fans in the last two weeks.  The Boy’s high powered offense.  Now everybody knows that Wade Phillips is a defensive genius, but Big Wade has certainly brought a potent offense to Dallas, one they have been lacking since the 90′s.  In the last two weeks, Dallas has scored a league high 82 points.  Tony Romo has thrown for 6 touchdowns, 2nd [...]

Dallas Cowboys football 2007 is all but here.  What better way for America’s Team to start their ’07 campaign than on Sunday Night Primetime against their hated rivals, the Giants?  Being from the Northern half of Indiana, trash talk was applenty on Friday morning, what with the defending champion Colts pulling out all the stops against the highly touted New Orleans Saints on Thursday night’s season opener.  But after having my ear filled with claims [...]

With one preseason game under their belts, the Cowboys are now preparing for the Denver Broncos on Saturday night, who have already strolled into Dallas and practiced with the Cowboys in the blistering Texas heat.  Here’s a couple players to keep and eye and ear out for that played well against the Colts.   Leonard Davis Even though this mountainous addition to the offensive line played but a couple series last Thursday, there’s reason for [...]

As we near the end of Training Camp 2007, a new wind has apparently blown in along with new head coach Wade Phillips.  Not a peep out of T.O.  That’s right, Terrell Eldorado Owens, has been virtually unheard from this off-season.  Whatever is ESPN to do without an over-exaggerated story about T.O. stirring up a Texas tornado down in the Lonestar state?  In fact, I have not seen or heard one thing about Terrell Owens on [...]

With training camp underway in the confines of the Alamodome in the heart of San Antonio, here are three position battles to keep an eye on as training camp heats up. 1.  Greg Ellis vs. Anthony Spencer, Outside Linebacker This will definitely be the most intriguing and heated battle to watch going into training camp.  With Greg Ellis coming off his devastating ruptured Achilles last season, it will be interesting to see how he responds.  There has [...]

As I scroll through the current roster of the Dallas Cowboys, I can not help but be excited for the upcoming season.  The Boys are certainly among the leagues best on paper.  Although this does not translate into anything until the pads come on in late July, here are three strengths that will make the Cowboys great.    1.  Linebacking Corps This is certainly the strength of this Cowboys team.  The Cowboys have three sure-fire [...]
